Hi
After installation of Metadot in a UX environment, I realized that I'm unable to do something that I really need to have!
I have a existing directory structure that consist of folders INDEX-A through INDEX-Z full of different files and folders to their designated INDEX directories. Folks are currently uploading documentation via a different cgi based upload utility.
I am trying to figure out if there's anyway I can get metadot to recognize those directory structure and files within it without having to create "category" "items" one by one... It will be a nightmare!!!
I am not a programmer, so not sure how can I just move those file to metadot's upload directory or tell metadot to look at those directories and display contents to people via the metadot interface. :(
I tried creating a category, then creating an item and uploading a file. Then I did a search for the file and found it under one of the numeric directory in the /upload folder.
However, I realize just copying the files to that area simply wouldn't make what I'm wishing to do possible. It will need some update to mySQL as well.
Do I have any future :)
I will appreciate it a lot.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
