| Uploaded files (sometimes also known as attachments) are kept in a single directory under the data directory: <data_dir>/files. | | |
| <p> | | |
| This is by convention. In the configuration, the location for | | |
| uploaded files can be kept anywhere in the host filesystem. But make | | |
| sure that the web server has write permissions to the directory, so | | |
| that files can be uploaded there. | | |
| <p> | | |
| To reference a file in this directory from a page, use the syntax: | | |
| [ [media:filename.ext]]. This will convert into the url | | |
| <a href="http://servername.com/files/filename.ext">http://servername.com/files/filename.ext</a> | | |
| <p> | | |
| Usually, a symlink is placed in the publish directory area, | | |
| so that the web server can find the files at the specified location. | | |
| <p> | | |
| e.g. /var/www/files would be a symlink to /path/to/data-dir/files | | |
| <p> | | |
| Then, the configuration is set so that 'files_url_base' specifies | | |
| the leading portion of the URL to use to access this symlink. | | |
