Adding a Folder
You can add a new top-level folder or subfolder in the Site Browser tree (Site -> Browser) and select New -> Folder.
- To Add a Top-Level Folder:
- Right-click the Site and select Add Folder. Adding a folder to a Site creates a top level parent folder that is visible when the Site is selected.
- Right-click the Site and select Add Folder. Adding a folder to a Site creates a top level parent folder that is visible when the Site is selected.
- To Add a Subfolder:
- Right-click a folder and select New -> Folder.
Both of these methods open the Add/Edit Folder popup, which prompts you to enter the following information for the folder:
Field | Description |
---|---|
Title | A user-friendly title for the folder. The title may contain characters that are not valid in a URL. |
Name (URL) | The URL path for the folder. - After you fill in the title, this field auto-populates with a valid URL for the folder (generated by replacing or removing non-valid URL characters from the Title). - After it is auto-populated, you may manually change it. |
Sort Order (legacy) | A numeric value used to sort the order of objects in the navigation menu. - This value is only used if the folder has the Show On Menu property selected. - This is a legacy feature; you may now re-order the menus using a drag-and-drop method from the Page editing screen. |
Show On Menu | Checking this option causes the folder to automatically appear in any dynamic navigation menus that display the current directory. |
Allowed File Extensions | Limits the type of files that can be uploaded to the folder. - By default, this is blank, meaning that there are no limits to the types of files that can be uploaded to the folder. - If you type anything into this field (in the format *.{extension1}, *.{extension2}, etc. ), files that end in any extension other than the extensions you listed will not be allowed (attempting to upload will fail). |
Default File Asset Type | Specifies the default file Content Type used when uploading files to this folder. - This will be the content type used when dotCLI is used to upload files to the folder. |
