Selecting 'Main File' in a folder

Selecting 'Main File' in a folder

Hi all,

In the past, I've uploaded folders which have contained audio files and images as well as the main file.  I zipped the folder, uploaded it, unzipped it and then clicked on the main file and selected 'Main file' and everything worked fine. I haven't done this for a while and, in the meantime, we've upgraded to v.3.0.  Now I click on a file and there doesn't appear to be a 'maine file' option to select.  

How should I go about doing this now?  I'm sure it's pretty straigntforward, but I haven't been able to figure it out!

Regards,

Mal

Are you uploading it as a file resource, not a folder? It needs to be a file resource not a folder for you to be able to set the main file.
