Content Collection
Page last updated:
When you upload a file to MyBeckett, it is stored in an area called the Content Collection. This guide provides information for staff about uploading, editing, updating and organising files in this area.
Important: If you are planning to upload HTML files with linked content (e.g. images or CSS files), we recommend that you organise these files using folders. This will make it easier for you to manage permission settings for the linked files.
