There are 2 different ways to upload files to your Tendenci website: through Tendenci's Files Module to store and organize your files, or via your WYSIWYG Editor.

Click "Add File" when you finished uploading the file and you will return to the File Search Page where you can select and view the file you uploaded, and find the URL for the file to link to it within Tendenci pages and in the theme editor.
