Multiple uploading in back end

Post by SparkBibo »

Hello

I tried to search for this topic, but the embedded google site search was less than helpful.

I have used the back end ability to upload multiple files at a time. It worked great. I chose a category for the files prior to uploading them, but they do not show up in the front end.

It looks like I have to manually go through and add them to the files section now... doesn't this defeat the purpose of uploading multiple files?

How can I get them to show up automatically on the front end? I have a huge folder of files I am trying to post, but I don't want to do it one at a time.

Hi, sorry, I don't understand what you exactly means? ... if you have uploaded files in backend, you need to add them to the system e.g. with multiple add feature :idea:

Yes, I know I can upload multiple files in the back end. What I am talking about is having them get entered into the database so they show up in the front end.

They are added, while clicking on save button in Multiple Upload view (if the folder are selected)

Well, I have tried that. I made sure that I had a folder selected. I uploaded 5 files. They do not show up in the backend when I go look at the "files" sections in the phoca component. and they do not show up in the frontend.

That link takes me to uploading multiple within Phoca Galery. My problem is with Phoco Download.

SparkBibo,

I'm not quite sure if this will help at all. I tried the multiple upload on my own site using three Microsoft Office 2007 files. When I started I went down to multiple add and uploaded the files I wanted.
  • Next, I selected the files I wanted to add (2nd section)
  • Then I put the name in the title and the category as required.
  • This allowed for the files to show according to my layout (which I am trying to get to a column display type layout unsuccessfully)
  • The only problem I see currently is that they all show the same name on the backend.
That's all I can see for the current moment though.

Hope this helps!
