This tutorial is going to show you how to upload a file to your website and then hyperlink it to text inside a module. So first we're going to go in and enter our module. From here we will add some text that we want to hyperlink to.

Then we will highlight that text and then select the link icon. From there you have various options such as that. But we can also browse the server. From there when we click Browse the Server we're going to get our folder structure and then we can go forth with uploading a PDF for instance.

So we have PDF in here. You can click if you've already uploaded it and grab it there. The other thing you can do then is upload a new file. So if you click on that you can click Add Files and browse to your computer and select that file.

Or you can also drag right from your file browser and drag it from your window into the red block here. That will show your file name and then from there click Start Uploads. Once that is completed I'm just going to cancel out of here to go back.

Your file should show here in the folder you uploaded to. Select it and then click OK. And then OK yet again and then save your edit. That is how you can link to a file in DNN9.
