I'd like to set up a folder so that anonymous web users can upload files to it, but they cannot view files inside.

I think this should be possible but I can't figure out how to configure it. Thanks. This is beautiful software, I just discovered it today.

There is the "no download" feature + "hide file extention in listing" ... hum... still that's not exactly what you re looking for  :-\

right click on the folder -> advanced -> diff template:

copy and paste this inside it:

Code: [Select]
[files]
 

+ right click -> no download.. voila, no one can see whats inside it nor they can download it.

To make it accessable for users, just place the same folder somewhere else in the VFS (or in the same place but with another name), but without the diff template

maybe have a direct link to the upload page and have browsable disabled for the upload folder?

sorry for not having much detail but I am rushing to look at the other posts before I have to leave and goto work.

simpler but i think GE suggestion works better. disable browsable will disable us to go to the folder, how to upload file into the folder without enter the folder? (the answer is like foggy said i think). what the purpose on showing the folder but we cant enter it? why dont set if the folder is not browsable, it also will be hidden.

enable no download will view the file. visitor can click but cannot download. its better not show the file at all, or show the file without link to it (have to edit the template)

anyway, rejetto's is much2 simpler. if you dont want to spent much time just use this way

If you disable "browseable" you also hide the "upload button" and that defeats the purpose.  I think the best working solution is what Giant Eagle described.  I have tried the same thing here.

as said above, you can make "new link" and link the upload page directly from the outside.
