    (@webmasterfutureswebcom)


    I apologize if this has already been addressed but did you ever add the ability to:

    Is there a way to eliminate the “destination directory” drop down that the user sees? I will determine where the files go in the backend. I want to only display “add files” and “file up”

    “I can make it an option to have the destination directory be fixed and thus remove the dropdown.”

    Yes. fixedlocation=”true”
    It’s on the shortcode generator under “Allow Subdirectories”. Choose “Fixed Location” from the dropdown, or just add fixedlocation="true" to your [fileup] shortcode.

    that does work but it looks like i have to have the uploads on different pages because when you add more than one it conflicts…

    Plugin Author thomstark

    That’s correct. One upload form per page.

    But what are the different upload forms for?

    You can have more than one on the page as long as the current user can only see one of them. If you need one upload for admins and one for everyone else, do:

    [fileup fixedlocation=true hidefrom=”administrator”]
    [fileup showto=”administrator”]

    I’m trying avoid having to have a separate upload on different pages and treating this like an admin page where the same user can login and upload different files to different pages….

    Then you need to allow selection of subdirectories in the upload form.

    yes, understand thank you!

    I’m going to try eventually to allow multiple upload forms on the same page, but it’s a big overhaul and I can’t make any promises I’ll be able to get it to work. Meantime, this is what you’ll have to do. Sorry.

    Not a big deal, the plugin is awesome as is! Thank you!

    Jeff, the next release of File Away will allow unlimited File Up forms on the same page, with no conflict. They can all be running simultaneously if the user so desires.

    this is the code im using

    [fileup showto=editor,administrator base=3 fixedlocation="true" uploadlabel="Upload File"]
    
    [fileup showto=editor,administrator base=1 fixedlocation="true" uploadlabel="Upload File"]

    The directories disappear so how do we know which is what to upload?

    I could label the upload button

    Yes, label the upload button, or add text above each shortcode, aligned to the right.

    Thanks, anyway to move the ‘add files’ and ‘upload’ buttons to the left hand side of the page? Right now its on the far right side…
