Copy file inside one account

[ruslan5467]

Please consider to implement "copy file" option inside one account to different folder ie.
We need to have one file with different names and download links.

Thanks

You can use the remote upload feature to download your own file to another folder.

It copy HTML file of downloading page not the media file. (File owner - moderator, even dmin was unable to do this)

True. I found this few days after answering your post.

I have modified the remote upload feature in my script to check if the link is from a local file and if so, duplicate the file only in the database without downloading it.

The script has also a function to duplicate files in the file manager. My script came with this function commented in the theme. Check your html files to find it.

account_home.html, flow theme, lines 116 and 117:

<button class="btn btn-white disabled" type="button" onClick="duplicateFiles();
return false;"><?php echo t('file_manager_duplicate', 'Duplicate'); ?> <i class="entypo-cancel"></i></button>

awesome thanks,

i'm trying to add an option to move selected files to a folder via a popup but it seems very difficult at the moment, if i find a way ill post it

You can just drag the files to the folder on the left menu and they will be moved.

didn't even know that was possible, not sure why thats a feature and drag and drop to the folder itself isn't, it would also be nice to be able to select folders as well, i think the file manager is strange and alot of features aren't as straight forward for the user as they should be. personally it took me a while to figure out that you have to click on the icons in the folder tree view to expand them, i tried to add a +- sign infront but that didnt work too well

check out bedrive

hopefully the ys filemanager can eventually be like this one, overall ys is superior to bedrive though

I took some days to figure it out too. I added a link called "tips" in the account_home with useful tips on how to use the file manager.
