(1) This is the newer version on how to link to a sermon file (2013)

Update the listing page:

  • Log into http://test.truelightlutheran.org/wp/wp-admin
  • Go to the listing page
  • Mouse over the “listing” page and click on “Edit
  • Add  date and title to appropriate  section
  • Highlight date and title and click on “Add Media” icon in toolbar above.
  • In the “Insert Media” page, select “Audio” in the “All Media” pull-down menu
  • Selec tht desired file and click “Insert into Post” at the bottom.
  • Back on “Edit Page“, click “Update” to save and publish the page
  • Click “View Page” above the toolbar to verify the changes.

=================================================

(2) This is the older version technique

This is weird, but it works. Print these instructions out or keep it on a separate window tab.

  • go to Dashboard; Media; Library
  • click on the NAME of the file you want
  • WP will display an EDIT MEDIA page
  • on the right side column, find a sub-menu named SAVE
  • in the Save menu, find FILE URL
  • highlight and copy the URL (ctrl-A; ctrl-C)

You now have the full link saved.

  • Go to the edit sermon page, highlight your title, click on INSERT LINK ICON
  • Sometimes the Link Icon stays greyed-out. By typing and erasing text, it will re-appear. Seems to be a bug in this version of WP.
  •  paste the saved link (ctrl-V)
  • Don’t forget to update the page

It takes more time reading this than to do it. Best I can do for now.   Jim
