11. Subfolders

InformationThere is no limit on the number of subfolders that you can create. This means that you can create subfolders as many levels deep as you like. 
If you need a subfolder created for your course please contact the Help Desk at helpdesk@butler.edu or 940-HELP. Content creators cannot create subfolders.

  • Subfolders do not inherit the permissions of their parent folder. Be sure to apply permissions to subfolders the same way that you would with a regular folder.
  • If you delete/archive a folder with subfolder under it you will receive a message that you must delete ALL subfolders before deleting the parent folder.
