4.10 Managing project resources

The resources are the files (images, videos, documents) included in a project. Click on "Resources" to access the list.

It is important to upload only the files needed to edit a unit. However, although there are unnecessary files, it is not a problem. When a project is published, the publication includes only the files that actually are used in the project, that is, they are linked to a project component. The resources that have not been linked to the project are stored in learningMaker. In this way, we avoid that a published project has a size heavier than necessary and stores files that are not used.

On this screen you can:

Adding new resources

To add one or more resources to a project, drag them to the window or click on "Upload".

Remember
Names of the files to upload cannot contain blank spaces, capital letters, accents or special characters (ñ, $, &... ).

Some browsers do not behave correctly when the name of the file contains some of these elements.

Sorting resouces by folders

To keep the project resources sorted, we can create a folder to store them (for example, a folder for images, another for videos...).

Right-click on "Resources" folder and click on "New subfolder" to create a new storage space.

Searching for resources

The search engine on this screen allows locating a resource by its name or its extension. It is very useful to filter files by its extension (for example, to display mp3 files or pdf files).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Renaming resources

To rename a resource, right-click on the resource and select "Rename". Then, enter the new name and click on "Save". It may be useful in case a resource has incorrect characters or blank spaces.

Deleting resources

Right-click on a resource and select "Delete". Resources must be deleted one by one, several resources at the same time cannot be deleted.
