How do I add a Sibelius file to an existing uploaded score?

Hi there
I've successfully submitted and updated a PDF score (#20473). Now I've revised the score to the point I'm happy with it, I want to upload the SIB file (Sibelius 6) I used to generate the latest version of the PDF.
Hints on how to do this please? I'm reasonably IT savvy, but can't find anything that seems to be relevant in the on-line help stuff.
best regards

Hi Steve, it's in fact very easy to add the source file: just upload it using the "Upload file" option at the left menu. Now, go to the works page and add after the pdf file the following code (let's suppose you named the file as "GAUDETE OMNES v3.sib"):
[{{filepath:GAUDETE OMNES v3.sib}} Sibelius 6]
Click Preview to check that everything is alright, then Save, and that's it!

Thanks - I think I managed to follow that OK. (Please feel free to check!)
I'd imagined that I need a more complicated file location - does it (the Wiki software) somehow work out where the file must be from the fact that it's me logged in?

Yes, you did it fine!

No, there's no such thing, unfortunately. The first time you upload a file it must be added manually to the works page, but if you eventually upload an updated version (using exactly the same file name), then the wiki software updates the links automatically and you don't need to change anything at the works page.
