How to administrate DropzoneFileSharing?

[guebert]

(only admin can download files from the upload folder)

I wonder, how can someone log in to something like an admin-interface and see stored files, valid links, etc.

Hey
There is no admin page, but you can check via ftp if someone uploaded a file and view it in the uploads folder. In the json file you can see if they put in a emailadress or not and how long the file is valid.
I hope this will help you. Maybe some time i create a adminconsole to view and manage the uploads.

Ah, now I see what you mean with "admin" - not a special user, but the "admin" of the computer, DFS is running on. ;-)

You got me an idea which i never thought of when you only use upload mode or to manage the files in the other modes. I will create an admin panel with a few ideas in the next release ☺️👌🏻

Thanks! Just a page for an "admin" with PW "xyz" to see all valid links, expiring date, stored files, etc

and to change something like expiring date (to avoid to have upload data once more if it is needed longer) and password (if it has been forgotten).

yes this is exactly what i‘m working on right now. i think tomorrow i can upload the new release 😄👌🏻 i implemented an additional feature to turn off the password in the zipfile so when you change the password it only changes on the download link and the zip file has no password when you extract it. you can‘t change the password of the zipfile itself because it‘s uses the hashed password while zip creation. but with this you can change the download password as many times you like. in the adminconsole you can download every listed zip directly without inputting a password, even the user has set one for the download. 😎 stay tuned

the new release is online. 😉 have fun with the admin panel. if you have any questions just ask me. 👍🏻 you get to the admin panel via /admin.php

i'm also working on extend the functionality of the admin panel. new additions would be that you can change the valid options and email settings from the .env file in the admin panel instead of editing the files directly. so it's much more convenient. 😀

new release v.2.5 is online! the handling of the mode settings and email server configuration is now possible in the admin panel directly. 😀 have fun with it.
