Hi!
Upload the file to your serendipity mediadatabase, then in your article use the link to access your mediadatabase, choose the file you want to use, and you can insert it as a link into your article.

Ups! Excuse me again, Garvin:
I have uploaded a document.
Then I create the article, and I write "Go to the article", select it and press "Link" icon.
It happens that a new little window opens with: URL, Title and Destiny. I have not the possibility to browse, and I don't know the URL of the document.
How can I do it? Do I have to copy the URL of the document before I create the new article, and then paste it?
Thanks,
Daniel

Hi!
You must use the link "Manage media" or something like that. It's NOT the popup you get to manually add a link.

Yes, there is a link: manage images.
But: it inserts the name of the file, not the name that I choose.
I mean: I have "Document", and I want to do a link to the document with the title "Document".
With Manage images option, you just get: nameofthedocument.pdf, written on the article.

Hi!
You can first insert the file, and after the insertion you can change the title.
