How do I upload a new version of a file in Resources?

If a file is linked and active elsewhere in your course site - such as in a Lessons module or an image in a quiz - deleting it from Resources and uploading a new file in its place will break the link. Instead, upload a new version to keep existing links intact.

Go to Resources.

Select the Resources tool from the Tool Menu of your site.

Click Actions, and then select Upload New Version.
