You can move an attachment from its current location to any page within the site.

To move an attachment, you need the following permissions:

  • Edit page permission on the page where the attachment currently exists.
  • Create attachment permission on the space into which you are moving the attachment.
    Space permissions are assigned by a space administrator from the Space Administration screens. See Space permissions or contact a space administrator for more information.

To move an attachment,

  1. Go to the page that contains the attachment.
  2. Go to the 'Tools' menu and select 'Attachments'.
  3. Click the 'Edit' link beside the attachment. This will bring up a new screen, where you can:
    • Rename the attachment in the 'File Name' text field (optional).
    • Update the existing comment or enter a new comment in the 'New Comment' text field (optional).
  4. Select the page to which you want to move the attachment by clicking on the Choose a Page icon. A pop-up screen allows you to locate pages anywhere within the site.
  5. Under 'Update Links', select 'Yes' to ensure that any links to this attachment are maintained when you move it. Only select 'No' if you are sure that there are no links to this attachment within the current space.
  6. Click 'OK'.
