Files Application Improvements

Files play an important role in our projects. Looking at our numbers you can see how many files are added monthly (not accumulative) in Freedcamp since the early days. This is tremendous growth!

We’ve added a few things to make working with files more convenient!

1. Now you can add files to your comments while editing

adding-files-when-editing-comment

2. We also added Notifications section which was previously missing:

notifications-in-freedcamp-files

Now you can follow/unfollow on uploaded files easily.

3. Single email notifications to followers: when you upload multiple files including folders in Chrome.

A while ago we enabled folders with files upload in Chrome.

When you upload multiple files or folder with files (1) and select team members to notify (2):

upload-folders-freedcamp-in-chrome

Team members you selected will get a single email (3) with all the files showing under the folders they were uploaded to (4) and all files will have links (5) to open respective file page in Freedcamp.

Above email notification were sent from White Label Freedcamp account – you can see that its header includes custom site name. If you are interested to learn more – please follow this link.

4. We missed to include information about attached files into email notifications. You could only see images if they were added inline. Now this is fixed.

  1. Hi! Is there a way to copy an entire folder system over within a project? For example Fiscal Year 2017>Client Accounts>Onboarding File>Work Files.

    If I create this once….is it possible to copy and paste into a different fiscal year to avoid manually typing?

  2. Hi Mike,

    Do you mean to download entire folder to your computer? If yes – please check this section https://freedcamp.com/Freedcamp_LxR/Freedcamp_Devel_yOf/wiki/wiki_public/view/Ygaab#download-attachments-or-folders-as-a-zip-file there are some limits applied at this stage separate for free and paid plans.

    Cheers,
    Igor
