Shared repository

Hi, would that be possible to share files among multiple websites? How should be the folder set? I tried absolute path to another website but did not work. Thanks

Hi,
backend --< Components --> Phoca Download --> Files --> File: [Edit] --> General Options --> External Link

If the file is stored on external server, paste the external link here. The form field 'Filename' must also be filled (paste the whole link to the file into the form field 'External file' and only the name of the file into the form field 'Filename'). If you set the form field 'Direct Link' (see above) to 'Yes', the external link will be directly accessed (without checking the rights or saving statistics). If you set the form field 'Direct Link' to 'No', internal site will be accessed - statistics will be saved, file will be checked for access rights and then the site will be redirected to the external link (be aware, if the file is public on external server, it cannot be protected by Phoca Download there). Be aware, internal site will be not accessed in File View while clicking on Submit (Download) button.

Kind regards,
Benno
