File Listing

[dakwah]

I found FileCabinet but not that helpful. This is what i want:
- I would like to put my files in a different folders, say mp3 songs, different folders for each singers
- I would like to use ftp to upload those files
- I can put some descriptions on each file
- There's download counter and also preview or image of file type if possible
- Lasltly, people can download the file, and also user can give comments to the files.
- I want just listing of files.

- I'm using wordpress for my web, that's not the requirement.

- Can coppermine do this, how?

Yes, it can

This is typically what i want:

Here in the Category Viewer"
_______________________________
Thumbnails | Category Name
                  Category Description 
_______________________________

Here in the list of files viewer:
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________

Thumbnails | File Name (Linked)          |  Download Counter  | Option for user to put comments, send as ecard, and email |
                | File Description              |                            |
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________
And continue with the list of files

How to do this, i've installed the newest CPG with Mac OS Theme

OK thanks.

One more thing:

- Say i got 3 albums A B and C
- A is a picture album
- B is a mp3 album
- C is a collection of zip files

I would like album A displaying the Thumbnails for list of pictures, but for albumn B and C, it just displaying list of item without thumbnail. How to do that?

Workaround: Change the generic thumbnails that represent mp3-files (your_coppermine_folder/images/thumb_mp3.jpg) to a 1 Pixel graphic that has the same color your background has.
Real solution: you'll need to hack the core code.

I see.

If i decrease the size of the thumb for mp3, it will effect the wholethumb right? Say in the display at last additions and random additions that contain files from A B C, just images from A will get displayed, but from B and C will be a tiny miny image.

I don't know coding, anybody has done this before and would like to share it?
