           <strong>New feature!</strong>
           We're excited to introduce this new hosting space.<br>
           We would love to hear your feedback &mdash; please
           <a href="../contacts.html">contact us</a> and let us know what you think!
         </div>
         <p>
         Upload your track hub files to UCSC and view your bigBed, bigWig,
         BAM, VCF, and <a href="/goldenPath/help/hgTrackHubHelp.html#format">other supported files</a> -- no need to rely on third-party hosting services
         such as Dropbox, Google Drive, or AWS.
         </p>
         <p>
         Each account is allocated 10 GB of storage. While we strive to maintain uninterrupted
         access, please maintain your own backups. Data persistence over the long term
         is not guaranteed. To request additional storage space, please

           <summary><b>How to use Hub Space</b></summary>
-          <p>There are two primary ways to upload your files:</p>
+          <p>There are three primary ways to upload your files:</p>
           <ol>
             <li>
-            Upload a single (or group) of binary-indexed files for immediate visualization.</li>
+            Upload an individual set of binary-indexed files for immediate visualization.
+            If you have multiple files to upload, Hub Space allows to batch uploads by selecting
+            all files at once from your computer.
+            </li>
             <li>
             Upload an entire track hub along with all supporting files (hub.txt,
             bigWig, bigBed, etc.) to visualize the hub.</li>
+            <li>
+            To update an existing track hub on Hub Space, you will have to enter the hub's name
+            again. Otherwise, Hub Space assumes that you are trying to create a new hub.
           </ol>
           <p>
           If a hub.txt file is not provided when uploading the data files, a hub.txt file
           is automatically generated. The generated hub.txt file is configured with the
           <a href="/goldenPath/help/trackDb/trackDbHub.html#useOneFile">useOneFile
           trackDb setting</a>, and as a result, each hub is limited to a single genome assembly.</p>
           <p>
           <i>Editing the generated hub.txt file is not yet supported.</i>
           To customize the hub configuration or data display, replace the generated
           hub.txt file with your own version after uploading the data files.
           </p>
           <div style="display: flex; align-items: center; gap: 150px;">
             <p style="flex: 1;">
             By default, your most recently used genome assembly is selected after choosing which
             files to upload. Use the <em>popular assemblies</em> drop-down menu or the search
             box to select another genome assembly.
