- Description
In some enterprise enviroments tikiwiki is installed on a windows server which is also used as fileserver. Using tikiwiki as a knowledge platform requires the ability to upload documents and files to the machne, browse the upload directories and edit these documents. In such a scenarios users upload downloadable files, like word docs or pdfs directly to the share and use the file module to embed links to these files.
{FILE(filename="path\filename")}Filename{FILE}
This is rather painful for new users as they have to learn the syntax of the module and have to copy and paste paths and filenames.It would be more convenient to use the upload capabilites of file galleries in such scenarios. Currently they cannot be used. For this purpose file gallieries that create a hierarchic directory structure in the upload directories are needed. These directories can be used to organize uploads. Additionally, to ensure that people can edit their files, the files would have to be renamed to human-readable names and not to md5 as it currently is.
In short:
- no renaming of filenames in image and file galleries besides the replacement of spaces with "_".
- mime type filtering for uploads
- the ability to create and browse directories in order to organize uploads.
- ability to set multiple upload directories.Please consider these suggestions, thanks in advance!
