Wish to upload an original file, but can't seem...

Post by jkwilborn »

Hello, I'm embarrassed to ask this, but I cannot find a way to upload a file I created. I was able to create the torrent, but getting it (the original file for seeding) on deluge seeming eludes me. Is this capable of uploading the original files? I find no information on this when I search the site, and thought it was an obvious, but the file never appears. There seems to be no FAQ on this nor has anyone else seemed to ask this. There is also no information about the creation of a torrent and the distribution of the file in any of the instructions or help files, which seem awfully limited. If I'm dummy, then please explain where I'm going wrong...

Thanks

Jack

In the create torrent dialog, under the options tab, there is a checkbox for add to session. Did you make sure it was checked?

I finally figured it out. I wasn't putting in the torrent site, as far as I can tell. Why isn't this covered in the instructions? It seems many use this service, but few actually know how to upload files... I will close this question, if I can...

No, I didn't check the box, I would think if that's required it would default to what is needed for someone knowing nothing to at least get it up and transferring. Thanks to Ratanak for the assistance... I figured it out by Google'ing... I will have to check that from now on...

Now I just need to close this thread as 'Solved'...
