Page folder upload

[Kristina Hoeppner]

reported by Colin Jane:
Within a page you will have folders which allow files within them to be retractable and if they are PDF files then they can be previewed before download.
Also drag and drop items like the images text and other features into the folders from the side menu.

Can you please provide more information what you mean by this feature wish?

You can already upload files into a folder that is placed on a page and these files will be added automatically to the display. You can also retract that folder.

Hi
I men't having the same retractable files for example PDF files in a folder that is also retractable.

[Colin Jane (colinjane97)]

If you add a retractable PDF file onto a it will give you a preview of the PDF so you don't have to download the document itself.

If possible the new feature would do exactly the same within a folder.

Thanks for the additional information. Would the preview only be for PDFs or were you expecting it also for other file types? Theoretically, we can show images, certain videos, audio files and PDFs, but not preview any of the other file types.

[Colin Jane (colinjane97)]

Can you preview them within a retractable folder? Is it possible to drag new files into the folder from the menu?

[Kristina Hoeppner (kris-hoeppner)]

Currently, files are added to folders by simply uploading them to the folder in the "Files" area. We do not yet have a drop area for files directly on a page.
