File Manager

LeapSeed's File Manager tool provides an online view of a file folder system. It is available to you for uploading new content to the site. As a deployable tool that can be pointed at different folders, the tool can also be made available to public users to browse and download files from specific folder locations.

In addition to being able to browse, upload, download, rename, and delete files, the tool provides users with several advanced file management capabilities including:

Full-Text File Search

User's have the ability to search through the contents of Microsoft Office documents, PDFs, and text-based files such as HTML, XML and plain-text.

Thumbnail Browsing

When browsing through folders, thumbnails are automatically generated for image files, providing an effective preview of the file's contents.

Clipboard

Moving and copying files between folders is a breeze with the provided clipboard. Users can navigate to various folders, load in files, go to a destination folder, and then click paste. (all this, of course, assuming they have edit rights)

Zip / Unzip Capability

Users have the ability to use zip files to make file transfers significantly easier. A single zip file can be uploaded into LeapSeed, and then have its files expanded into a new folder. Likewise, files within LeapSeed can be packed into a zip file for an easy single-file download.

 

Check-In/ Check-Out Capability

A specific user can check out a file from File Manager, insuring they are the only one who will be able to make changes to it. Once the user has completed his/her updates, the file can be checked back in, allowing other users to make updates. With every check-out and check-in, a copy of the current file is archived for version control, later reference, and comparison.

File Manager can also be embedded into any Data Manager section, providing a strong combination of database record and file management.
