File Publishing

Publish folder content to frontend.

The File Publishing app is used to publish the contents of a folder in Assets to frontend. How the content will be published is based on your template.

When you add this app to a paragraph you have the following settings available which control how the app works:

Display settings are used to:

• Specify the Folder you want to publish content from
• Check Show subfolders to add content from these to the loop FoldersLoop
• Select an icon folder with icons in .gif format – 16x16px recommended, must be named {extension}.gif, e.g. pdf.gif
• Specify the sorting settings for the published content

Templates setting is used to:

• Create/select a template for rendering a list of content

Content list

To return a list of content from a folder, use the FilesLoop and its available TemplateTags:

<!-- Accessing the FilesLoop -->
@foreach (LoopItem file in GetLoop("FilesLoop"))
{
<!-- Information about the files -->
<div>
    Name: @file.GetString("FilepublishFileName"),
    File size: @file.GetString("FilepublishFileSizeKB"),
    Date: @file.GetString("FilepublishFileDatemodified")
</div>
}

Folders list

To return a list of subfolders from a folder, use the FoldersLoop and its available TemplateTags:

<!-- Accessing the FoldersLoop -->
@foreach (LoopItem folder in GetLoop("FoldersLoop"))
{
<!-- Information about the folders -->
<div>
    Name: @folder.GetString("FilepublishFileName"),
    Date: @folder.GetString("FilepublishFileDatemodified")
</div>
}
