Files

You can upload any type of file to Dushed. You can open a file on its own, or use it in a flashcard, a note, or a bookmark.

To upload or edit files, you need the Pro plan or the trial. On the Free plan, you can still open and delete your files. See Pricing.

Upload a file

In the menu, open Files, then Add.
In File, choose the file.
If you want, open Comments and tags, and add comments or tags. You write comments in Markdown.
Select Upload file.

Rules for uploads:

The file must not be empty. Its name must not contain #.
The file must not be larger than 30 MB.
Dushed changes the name to lower case, and changes spaces and hyphens to underscores. For example, Africa Map-2024.PNG becomes africa_map_2024.png.
If you upload a file that has the same content as a file that you already have, Dushed keeps only the file that you already have.

You can also upload files in the File references field when you add or edit a flashcard, a note, or a bookmark. That field offers images, audio, video, PDF, text, and JSON files. To upload a file of another type, use the Files page, then refer to it.

Open a file

In the menu, open Files, then List. To open a file in a new tab, select its name.

These types of file open in your browser: images (GIF, JPEG, PNG, and WebP), PDF, audio, video, and text. Text files show as plain text. Other types of file download to your computer.

Use a file in other items

To connect a file to a flashcard, a note, or a bookmark, see References.
To show an image in a flashcard or a note, see Images.
To refer to one page of a PDF, see References. Most browsers open the PDF at that page.

Edit a file

In the list, select Edit next to the file.
Change the Name, Comments, or Tags.
To change the content, choose a Replacement file. The name stays the same. The replacement must not be the same as another file that you already have.
Select Save changes.

Delete a file

In the list, select Delete next to the file.
Type yes, then select Delete file. You cannot undo this.

When you delete a file, Dushed also removes the references to it from your other items. If the file is an image in a flashcard or a note, the image stops showing.
