It it possible to upload an html file. But what shows up in the gallery is the html code, not the page. So I think you'd have to make it an image file.
This is part of the problem I think I might have mentioned to you in either another message or the forum. I'm trying to figure out how to make tutorials for the website, with links. It can't be a PNG and have a link in it. It almost would have to be an SVG file. Or maybe PDF.
But anyway, to put your tutorials in the InkSpace Tutorials section, it can't be an html file.
Sorry, I wish I had a good answer for you.
All best, brynn

Hi Brynn
I do not want to include exercises.html and tutorial.html with the zip download. The (extension) zip will include a readMe.html file. If I upload the tutorial.html and/or exercises.html to the tutorial category, won't they still be downloadable?
I would like the tutorial, and ecercises to be readable, not downloadable.
I hope this makes sense.
Kind regards

Hi ugajin, I'm not quite following what your concerns are. You want the html pages to be available for users, but you don't want the users to download them? I guess you could upload the tutorial to the InkSpace Tutorial category. And then I think it's fairly typical to have a readme file together with an extension or any other program. Maybe the readme file could have a link to the tutorial?
All best, brynn

Hi Maren,
Yes, I am referring to the html documentation; specifically the 'tutorial.html and 'examples.html' pages. The viewBox... extension files, together with the readMe file will be downloadable. The structure that I have made, seems to work OK, and I would like to keep links in the readMe.html file for the example.html and tutorial.html pages, so ideally these pages need to be hosted, but not by me.
I have considered building a local structure, and adding the said supporting docs to the zip file. Indeed, this had been my initial approach, but as the supporting documentation grew, I began to have doubts, and to ask, why do it this way? Including them in the zip file would no doubt 'work', but it is not the approach that I would like to take.
Further, why should anyone have, or want to download files that a) they may not want, and/or b) simply in order to access, and/or peruse them? I am not against anyone downloading them per-se (e.g. if they chose to do so) and, I am less worried about users breaking any relative links. I guess, I am simply not intending the supporting documents to be downloadable.
I don't think requesting more space is an answer.
Thanks for considering matters.
Kind regards.

Hi u,
I'm not entirely sure which specific documents you are referring to.
If you mean external documents, that you don't control (the manual, for example), then you could just add a link into the README file and / or into the description text for the extension.
If you mean your own html documents, why don't you just add them to the zip file? You could make a subfolder 'documentation' or similar, if you like.
If you need more space for uploading everything, this list is the place to request it.
Kind Regards, Maren
I have been working on a new extension called viewBox..., which is awaiting upload to the Inkscape addons gallery. It is available for preview here: http://ugajin.co.uk/sketchbooks/viewBox/viewBox/viewBox.html, with a bunch of supporting documents.
The problem is what to do with the supporting documents (I do not want to host them on ugajin.co.uk). Whilst, I may upload the extension files, without the supporting documents and/or providing a link to them, this seems to me to be the wrong approach.
The viewBox and its sibling attributes are one of those things, which are not be easily accessed in Inkscape, and those cutting their teeth writing SVG using Inkscape may benefit from the supporting documentation.
Thank you for considering matters.
