Here, you can import files from your computer or a server hard drive into the system. Files imported through the File import module are stored in the Content tree as CMS.File (or CMS.Folder) documents.

 

Note that if you are importing files from a server disk, you need to make sure the files are in the path specified in CMS Site Manager -> Settings -> System -> Files -> File import folder setting.

 

You can configure the following properties:

 

•Target alias path: path within the content tree where the files will be imported

•Culture: culture to which the uploaded files (documents) will be assigned

•Delete imported files from disk (Import from server disk only): if enabled, files in the import folder will be deleted after a successful import

•Include file extension in name: if enabled, the file extension is included in the Document name of the newly imported files
