FileField

dopry - August 9, 2006 - 20:55

FileField provides a generic file upload field for content.module (CCK). It's supposed to be an alternative to upload.module in Drupal core, and provides a CCK field called "File" that you can use in your content types. Versions 5.x-2.3 or later (including all 2.3 release candidates) depend on the MimeDetect module for determining the MIME type of uploaded files.

You can use the Transliteration module to get correctly transliterated filenames, CCK Field Permissions for fine-grained control over user access, and Download Count for (you guessed it) counting your file downoads. Note that enabling the Devel module will probably break AJAX uploads (see this for more information).

As of version 5.x-2.3-rc2 (including all later versions), FileField has a hard dependency on PHP 5.2 (or later). Also, the 5.x-1.0 release is now officially deprecated, please only report bugs against the current 5.x-2.x version and close your (own) 5.x-1.0 bugs if they don't apply anymore.

FileField 5.x-2.x presents a significant improvement over 5.x-1.0, including (but not restricted to):

Upload and enjoy!
