Can't find stored files.

I have recently taken the webmaster role of an existing website. looking around the sitedelux portion of the control panel has been cause for some grief. to upload a file it directs me to sitedelux files where there are a number of files that are linked to the page. i am not able to locate those files anywhere in the file manager window. i simply want to rename and move files around to better organize everything. i have just spent the last two hours searching for these files and would like some assistance. thank you.

Have you tried using FTP to access the files? While they should at least show up using either method, if you find them with FTP it'll probably be easier to move, rename, etc.

Good luck,
Kevin

I dont use sitedelux, but it may be a database-driven system where the files are in a database and not accessible via FTP...in which case you would need to use sitedelux to manage the files, or dig into the database

Uploaded images, documents, etc. should be in the folder sitebuildercontent. For instance, the path a picture in the gallery would be something like:
/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/pizza.jpg
While for a PDF document added through Site Add Ons, it'd be:
/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderfiles/guide.pdf
