Import list of files/downloads into Phoca Download?

Post by evdoorne »

Hello,

I have a repository with over 5.000 files that I need to put into Phoca Download . All files are neatly organised into folder and present on the website. I also have a spreadsheet with all filenames and locations listed. How can I import this list into Phoca Download so that I can create a working repository? I tried importing the spreadsheet into the jos_phocadownload table, but the component then lists the files Ok but all links generated are not working. Has anyone tried this before? can anyone suggest a working solution for such an import?

My site is J1.6.3 and runs Phoca Download 2.0.0 RC2. I can revert back to J1.5 if needed.

thanks a million,

Erik

Hi, for now I don't know any such importing code. While importing the id of category etc. which is stored in other table must be followed :-(

Hello Jan, thank you for your reply.

Could you explain what other table(s) are involved an what to put in which table? I can then try to directly put data into the database. I have the files put in already, that was the biggest task I guess...

Hi, I am not able to describe all the dependencies - see: forum-rules.php (9)

See the install.sql.bak (1.6) and install.bak file (1.5) to see the structure and columns in the Phoca Download tables.
