The ExSite document manager tool allows you to create, modify, and delete documents in a document library on your website(s). It automatically archives older versions of a document, and allows you to restore those old versions at a later time.
Start the document manager tool by clicking on the Documents icon, which looks like this:
If you have one website, you will immediately be presented with a listing of that site's documents. If you have more than one website, you will first have to select a website from those given in the drop-down list.
Websites store their documents in a library called "docs", by default. If your website does not have such a library in place, the document manager will offer to create one for you.
Click on the document name. Most non-web documents will be treated as downloads, which you can save to disk or open directly in an application. Some documents are web-friendly, however, and may be displayed directly in your browser.
Click on the update (+) button at end of the document description. The document manager will present you with a simple form for selecting and uploading a new file. The previous version (all previous versions, in fact) is not deleted, but is kept on file as a backup.
Click on the delete (x) button at end of the document description. If multiple versions of the document exist, the document manager will give you an option to "Roll back to previous version". Click on this link to delete the latest version, thereby restoring the previous version to active duty. If there is only one version of the document on file, the document manager will not give you this option.
Click on the delete (x) button at end of the document description. Next, click on the "Delete this document and all its versions" link.
Click on the "add new document" link at the end of the document listing. You will be prompted to enter a document title and description, and can upload the initial version of the document. Click the "upload" button when you are ready to commit the new document to the system.
After you have made changes to your documents library, it is a good idea to (re-)publish the documents. This ensures that the on-disk copy of the documents that your website users will see is fully synched with your changes. Otherwise, users may still get older versions. Note that if you publish your website, your documents will automatically be republished.
