Manage downloads

Here you can upload files such as *.zip or *.pdf for download. The name given here also determines the display on the actual website.  This form of download provision is (if included in the wisy package) linked to the statistics functions of wisy. This allows you to control, for example, how interesting a download is for visitors.

This function is available in the following packages:

wisy base

wisy advanced

wisy pro

wisy expert

 

Info: This type of download management has a crucial advantage: You can exchange downloads globally without having to check every single subpage. If you exchange the file in the backend, it will automatically exchange itself in the entire frontend. Of course, this applies to all other attributes as well.

Create download / Edit Download

 

Display name
Enter the name of the download that will be displayed on the website later.

Description
The description can be specified, e.g. to be displayed in the special element "Download Center" next to the download or to appear as a tooltip during a normal download.

File
Enter the file here. To do this, click on "Browse" and select the file on your computer. Then confirm with "Open".
If you are editing a download, you must first deactivate the "Keep" checkbox to be able to specify a new file.

Download group
In which download group/upload group should the download be displayed?

Make searchable
Enter here whether wisy should try to make the upload searchable. This only is sensible if the file is a PDF.

Create thumbnail
Here you can specify whether the new download should be displayed to other admin users or not.

 
 

Delete download

 

Confirm the prompt to delete the download or deny it if you do not want to delete the download.

Deleting the download deletes the file from the server and tells the locations where the download was included that the download is no longer available.
