In this tutorial you will read about moving documents between sub-folders within a folder on your Moodle site. <a href=\"http:\/\/support.isucomm.iastate.edu\/uploading-folders\/\">To read about uploading folders, please read this article.<\/a><\/p>\n<h1>Step 1: Select a File<\/h1>\n<p>You might have a folder like the Engl 250 folder depicted below. We will use the &#8220;Summary&#8221; sub-folder as an example in this article.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-5469\" src=\"http:\/\/support.isucomm.iastate.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2155\/2016\/01\/folders-sub.png\" alt=\"moving folders screenshot 1\" width=\"384\" height=\"349\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>To move files between sub-folders, click the &#8220;Edit&#8221; button at the bottom of the screen.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-5470\" src=\"http:\/\/support.isucomm.iastate.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2155\/2016\/01\/subfolder_2.png\" alt=\"subfolder_2\" width=\"527\" height=\"153\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Clicking on &#8220;Edit&#8221; will take you to a screen depicting the top folder. You can then click through the folders until you arrive at the document that you want to move. The screenshot below shows the documents in the &#8220;Summary&#8221; sub-folder. The file path is highlighted by a purple box.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-5471\" src=\"http:\/\/support.isucomm.iastate.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2155\/2016\/01\/Sub_folder_3.png\" alt=\"Sub_folder_3\" width=\"491\" height=\"306\" \/><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h1>Step 2: Move the File<\/h1>\n<p>Click on the file that you want to move and choose the appropriate file path from the pop-up window.
