Add (Upload) a binary file for download

We want to offer our users a page to download some binary files (PDF, PPT & MS Word Docs). We want to control on our (Tiny-D) pages the the links to the specific files.

WF-Download and the core XOOPS Download modules seem to be overkill for us (mime types, categories, etc...) All of our users will have webmaster status so that will not be an issue, we simply need a web interface to upload a file and have the ability to provide a link to the files from our Tiny-D pages.

Can anyone suggest something to help us out?

Thanks!

Filemanager .... I'll download it now and take a look.

Xoops is (obviously) new to us and we are trying it out.

Thanks for the quick reply!

I'll post my success after I tinker with Filemanager.

Thanks again!

Is filemanager (version 3 available from the
Xoops module area) compatible with an IIS installation of XOOPS version 2.0.9.2?

Installation (seemingly) is OK. We see the module fine, and a page displays with the following:

<top of page>
[ folders and files here ]

Actions below show the following:
Upload a file in the directory : /
Create a new directory in : /
Create a new file in : /
</bottom of page>

Anything we click on take us back to the same screen and none of the actions work as expected: no directories are created, no new files are added and no uploads happen. PHP debug is on and we receive the following warnings and notices:

Notice [PHP]: Constant _YES already defined in file c:\inetpub\wwwroot\ccis\modules\filemanager\language\english\admin.php line 48

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

THANKS!

Register Globals needs to be enabled for FileManager to work effectively. Bad choice... in my opinion.

Still looking in anyone knows of a goof filemanager - register globals should be off for a working version...

Thanks

Using SmartSection, you could do both - offer a page with information and upload/attach one or more files. Overall a great module for managing content and such. Granular permissions on categories and pages (but not attached files). Depending upon your exact needs, this may or may not work for you.

SmartSection is a great choice, I'll give you that one...

I have not tried Cordemanon as suggested by Will. but plan to.

I'm looking at using FCK Editor with an Older modified version of TinyD by GIJOE. The newer editor he is working on is too feature rich for our needs. We need simple, simple, simple for our users. SmartSection is simple and we may end up with that as well, but it also offers way too many features for our needs.

Thanks for the suggestions!!
