    Hi,

    I set up my base folder 1 like this : /my_site_wp-content_path/uploads/documents

    Now when I upload a file, I always have to click once on my “Documents” folder before I can upload a file in it. Why is that? Why isn’t the default folder already chosen? Is there not a away to have by default the documents sub-directories in the “Destination folder” selection ??

    Of course there is. Have you looked at the tutorials?

    You’re looking for [fileaway directories=”true” drawerid=”1″][fileup matchdrawer=”1″]

    [fileaway] and [fileup] are two separate shortcodes, and you can have an unlimited number of each on a single page. File Away is built to allow multiple on the same page. For that reason, [fileaway] and [fileup] don’t communicate with each other by default. You get them to communicate with each other using the drawerid and matchdrawer attributes respectively.

    Hence:

    [fileaway base=1 directories="true" drawerid="1"][fileup base=1 matchdrawer="1"]
    [fileaway base=2 directories="true" drawerid="2"][fileup base=2 matchdrawer="2"]
    [fileaway base=3 directories="true" drawerid="3"][fileup base=3 matchdrawer="3"]
    [fileaway base=4 directories="true" drawerid="4"][fileup base=4 matchdrawer="4"]

    It’s all in the docs.

    Hi, and thanks for your answer. I did read the docs before posting promise ??

    Sorry this is not what I meant, I tried to be clear enough, but screenshots might be easier to undersand :

    Right now, I have this : When I want to upload a file, I have to click on my base directory first... why is that?

    When I want to upload a file, I have to click on my base directory first… why is that?

    What I would like, it to have straight away these choices : I want to have my base directory already chosen by default, so I can upload my file directly in it or choose a subdirectory

    I want to have my base directory already chosen by default for upload, since it HAS to go in it… so I can upload my file directly in it or choose a sub-directory, know what I mean?

    Thanks for the clarification. I do know what you mean now, but unfortunately this issue isn’t on my agenda at the moment. Sorry.
