On this tab, you can find a list of document attachments stored by the CMS. Based on selection in the Site drop-down list, you can either select a site and view all document attachments on the site, or choose (all) to view all document attachments on all websites in the system.

 

If there are more than 25 document attachments (or a different number set by means of the CMSDefaultListingFilterLimit web.config key), a filter is displayed above the grid. Using the filter, you can filter displayed attachments by their name, extension, size or depending on if they are stored in the database.

 

In the Actions column in the grid, action icons are displayed depending on the Store files in file system and Store files in database settings in Site Manager -> Settings -> System -> Files. The displayed actions are the following:

 

• Copy to database - copies the attachment to the database. This action is only displayed if the attachment is stored only in the file system while settings are configured for files to be stored both in the file system and in the database.

• Delete from database - deletes the attachment from the database. This action is only displayed if the attachment is stored both in the file system and in the database while settings are configured for files to be stored only in the file system or to be stored both in the file system and in the database.

 

• Copy to file system - copies the attachment to the file system. This action is only displayed if the attachment is stored only in the database while settings are configured for files to be stored only in the file system or both in the file system and in the database.

• Delete from file system - deletes the attachment from the file system. This action is only displayed if the attachment is stored both in the file system and in the database while settings are configured for files to be stored only in the database.

 

Using the two drop-down lists below the grid, you can perform the above listed actions for multiple attachments at once. In the first drop-down list, you can choose from the following:

 

•Selected files - performs the action for files selected using the check-boxes () in the grid.

•All files - performs the action for all listed files.

 

Then you can choose the required action from the second drop-down list and click OK to perform it. The same actions as listed above are offered in the drop-down list, while the conditions described above need to be met for the actions to be offered.
