CREATE YOU OWN AUDIO FILE

The recommended format for your audio files is the MP3 format.

To create your own MP3 file, the simpliest is to use your smartphone. Create a voice memo thanks to your favorite application. Then, send it to yourself attached to e-mail.

If you are using a Iphone, you need to convert the file format to a readable format.

UPLOAD THE AUDIO FILE

Once your audio file is created, you can add it on your wiki page.

PLease note that it is not yet possible to add a file with the Edit tab (Visual Editor).

You have to edit your page with the Wiki code editor (Edit source tab).
