How to Add Resources (PDFs, Files, Links) to Your Membership

Modified on Tue, 30 Jun at 1:06 AM

Adding resources (like PDFs, slides, worksheets, links, etc.) to your membership project helps provide additional value and support to your students alongside the video lessons.

Before You Start

You're adding resources to a specific lesson, not to the whole module
Resources appear below the video for students to download or click
Supported file types: PDF, DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, ZIP, PNG, JPG, MP4 (see size limits below)

Steps to Add a Resource

Step 1: Open Your Membership Project

Log in to your FlexiFunnels dashboard.
Navigate to the Membership Project where you want to add the resource.

Step 2: Locate the "Add Resource" Option

Inside the project, look for the “Add Resource” option. This is usually available within each lesson or module section.

Step 3: Upload or Link the Resource

Option A: Upload a File from Your Computer

Click "Add Resource" → "Upload File"
Select your file (PDF, image, document, ZIP, etc.)
File size limit: 100 MB (if your file is larger, compress it as a ZIP first)
Wait for the upload bar to reach 100%
Name your resource (Example: "Worksheet_Module1_Week2" — NOT "Document.pdf")
Click "Save"

Option B: Link to an External URL

Click "Add Resource" → "Add URL"
Paste the full URL (must start with https://)
Name your resource (Example: "Google Form - Feedback Survey")
Click "Save"

Common URL examples:

Google Drive: https://drive.google.com/file/d/...
Dropbox: https://www.dropbox.com/s/...
YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=...
External forms: https://forms.typeform.com/...

There, you have to choose the resource type as per your need and by selecting an option, add the selection

Step 4: Save and Preview

After uploading or adding the link, click Save.
Preview the lesson to ensure the resource is visible and accessible to students.

Common Issues & Fixes

Problem	Why It Happens	Fix

File upload fails or hangs	File is too large (over 5 MB)	Compress your file or upload as ZIP instead
"Unsupported file type" error	You're trying to upload .exe, .app, or other restricted files	Convert to PDF or ask support which formats are allowed

URL link is broken	The external link changed or was deleted	Test the URL in a new browser tab—if it doesn't work there, update or remove it

Pro Tips

✓ Naming matters: Use clear names like "Worksheet_Week3.pdf" instead of "Document1.pdf"—students need to know what they're downloading.

✓ Test before publishing: Always preview as a student to make sure the resource is accessible.

✓ File organization: If you're adding many resources, keep them in order (numbered, dated, or by module).

✓ External links: If linking to Google Drive or Dropbox, make sure sharing permissions are set to "Anyone with the link can view" (or FlexiFunnels won't be able to access it).

✓ Backup important files: If you link to external URLs, download a backup copy—if that service goes down, your resource disappears.

✓ Resource limits: There's no hard limit on how many resources per lesson, but keep it under 10 to avoid overwhelming students.
