#020: FileField Paths


Listen Later

Module Link: http://drupal.org/project/filefield_paths Who: Technical and semi-technical users What: The FileFields Path module allows the paths for your uploaded fields contain information from your node (such as fields, node id, etc.) When: Use this module when you want to keep a clean /files directory. It is especially useful in keeping your files together when you have multiple file uploads per node. Where: After enabling the module go to your Content Types that have file uploads and configure a file field. Scroll down until you find a field set labeled "FileField Path Settings", expand it and take a look at the replacement tokens. Why: By default Drupal only allows you to use generic tokens when saving files on a node. This module gives you many more options that are tied to the specific node and all of it's fields.   Theme song "i dunno" by grapes. module-a-day_podcast-0020.mp3
