 * Hello,
    Is there a way to edit a word document, and upload it back to the folder
   online? That way, if it’s a regularly changing document, it can easily be updated.
   There is also no “delete” or “edit” button. Thank you, Renee

 * You cannot edit a word document using anything other than word (or a compatible
   wird processor). There certainly is a delete feature in manager mode.

 * When I click on the Manager Mode tab –
    Access by Role/Capability: Administrator&
   contributor Access by user: nil override password: nil
 * On the website, the columns are:
    type drawer/file date modified size
 * Where do I add the delete ability?

 * On the page where you put your fileaway shortcode. In the page editor. If you’re
   using a theme that has file away integrated into the theme, you’ll have to get
   support from the theme creators.
