2. Connect to your sermon directory

Instructions for Filezilla. Connect using Site Manager (File->Site Manager)

You can do this using drag and drop from your computer. When a file finishes uploading, it will be automatically available to use in your sermon browser control panel.

4. Important Guidelines

Note: we strongly recommend using compressed mp3 files for sermons, size between 10-15 MB max. This will save your site space and speed.
Warning: Be careful with your files! Deleted files will be removed from your site and cannot be recovered.
MP3 File names: do not use special characters (~!@&*)””) in filenames. Try to be organized with naming (e.g., YYYY-MM-DD_name.mp3) so that you are able to find files easily. Over the years, you will have a lot of files in one directory!
