Adding Multiple Documents Important: This option requires Internet Explorer and Office 2003 or higher on your computer. Also, you must enable ActiveX controls in your browser settings. To do this, open Internet Explorer and go to Tools > Internet Options > Security Tab > Custom Level button. Within that screen, under ActiveX controls and plugins, find Script ActiveX controls marked safe for scripting*and click Enable. Note: The title of the uploaded document is set to the filename minus the extension. Only the following file types can be uploaded: *.doc,*.xls,*.ppt,*.pdf,*.gif,*.jpg,*.jpeg,*.log,*.vsd,*.dot,*.zip,*.swf,*.wm a,*.wav,*.avi, *.mp3, *.mp4, *.rm, *.wmv, *.ra, *.mov, *.png,*.docx,*.xlsx,*.pptx, *.vsdx, *.wmf, *.xml, *.htm, *.html, *.flv Steps From the Ektron Workarea, select the Content tab. Select the Ektron folder in which you want to place the documents.

Click New > Multiple DMS Documents 4.Select your version of MS Office and click OK. If Office 2003 or 2007 is installed as well as Office 2010, choose Office 2010.

NOTE: If you later change your computer's Office version, update this setting from the Add Assets button > Multiple DMS Document option > Switch Office version option. 5.Open Windows Explorer in a separate window, then drag and drop files onto the screen.

Publishing pages Click UPLOAD. Click Publish.

If you cannot edit a page - do these 3 steps in order Here is the workaround for the "edit" page Ektron bug. (it's also in the user manual in the Troubleshooting appendix.) 1. EDIT the properties of the page in the backend and Click SAVE (without making any changes), then click the "<" arrow to Cancel. When prompted, click Leave this page. 2. Go back to the browser window with the page and refresh the page. You should have "check-in" available in the file menu. Click on Check in. 3. Now edit should be available on the file menu of the page. Click on Edit.
16
If 'Houston' is displayed across the top of your new page If 'Houston' is displayed across the top of your new page instead of your section or division name, then a step was missed in creating the page (page 17 of the user manual). Of course, I know that because I've skipped that step myself multiple times... To fix the name a. Edit the properties of the page. b. Click on the "metadata" tab. c. Scroll down to "portal name". d. Delete Houston and put yours. It will display exactly as you type it. e. Publish the page.
