Group Resources and Documents

Every group has its own Resource Center for its members to upload and download documents and files relevant to the group.

Document Titles
It's important to note that the document titles on OR Nurse Link are pulled from the document's file name.

So before you upload your document to the group, be sure the document's file name is how you'd like the document titled on the site.

For the example above, the file name for the Word document was
2009 2010 WTS Form.doc so the document's title on the site is 2009 2010 WTS Form.

If you've uploaded your document already, and you want to edit the title of the document, you'll need to delete the document, rename your file, and then upload again to the site with the new file name.

To Upload a Document (Newsletter) to Your Group Resources
On your group homepage, click the Group Resources tab.

Group Resources Tab

Click Add New Document.

Click Browse to find the file on your computer, and upload just about any type of document (PDF, Word Doc, Powerpoint File, etc), keeping in mind the maximum file size is 5MB.

Creating Folders

If needed, you can upload several files at once by clicking Upload Multiple Files.

Once you've browsed and found your document, click OK.

You'll be brought to a screen that allows you to enter Title for your document.

Group Resources Field

Please note that once you've uploaded your document, you cannot change the Name field (which is the document file name). If you need to change the file name of your document, you'll need to do that before you upload it to OR Nurse Link.

Click OK when you're done

The document will now be uploaded to Group Resources.

Download a Document from the Resource Center
Click on the Group Resources tab. Click on the Name of the document and the document will be downloaded to your computer.

Creating Folders
To keep your files organized, use folders to group Chapter newsletters, Bylaws, presentations and other document types.

To create a folder, click on the Group Resources link at the top of the document area.

Your new subfolder will now appear in the main folder. To upload a document to the subfolder, click on its title.

Deleting a Document or Folder
Only a Group Owner can delete an item that has been added to the Group Resources area.

If you are not a Group Owner, contact him or her to remove the item by clicking on their name in the About This Group section and sending them a message.

If you are a Group Owner and need to delete a document or folder, hover your mouse cursor over the title of the document, click on the yellow arrow/bar that appears, and find Delete on the pull-down menu.
