The Admin File List, on the back-end of your site, serves as the main location to manage your files and lists. Here you can add, edit and delete anything in the list.

Upload Files

Click this button to open the upload form. Click it again to close it.

Re-Scan Files

Click the re-scan button to force a fresh disk scan. Useful if you add files to the list outside of the plugin.

Function Bar

Use the Function Bar to create new folders and bulk edit checked items in the list. If you enable Front-End Manage on the List Settings tab this will appear on the front-end too.

The Admin File List

The Admin File List always begins at the root of the file list directory, as defined on the File List Settings tab. On the front-end, you display this list using the shortcode: [eeSFL]. You can also display folders in the list and over-ride list settings using shortcode attributes.

File Action Links

The links below the file name are the file’s Action Links. These allow you to perform different operations on the item:

• Open – Open the file in a new browser tab.
  The open link will only appear for file types that browsers can open.
• Download – Download the file directly to your computer or device.
  Folders are downloaded as a ZIP file, which is created and a download link proved for that.
• Copy Link – Copy the file’s URL to your clipboard.
  Note that individual file links are reachable regardless of the list visibility settings.
• Edit – Open a Edit Details dialog.
  Here you can rename, add/edit a description or modify the date of the file.
• Delete – A conformation box will appear. If you choose OK, the file will be deleted.
  Deleted Files and Folders are gone FOREVER.
• Move – Open a selection of folders where you may move this file or folder to.
  Whole folders and their sub-folders can be moved as easily as files.
