Hi Peter, We are currently using the trial version of DMX 5, and the company is primarily Mac based. I have searched in the forum but have yet to find a similar question regarding this issue. When importing into DMX, the only option it gives me to locate the files/folders on my computer is to type in the 'directory' of the folder. If you are not familiar with Mac machines, they do not use this convention for their files and folders. In the DNN file manager however, the import menu gives me an option to 'browse' through my computer to locate the folders. This works fine on my Mac machine. I was wondering how diffifcult it would be to implement a similar method in the DMX import menu, or if an alternative to the 'directory' method is available. Thanks

Hi Glenn, The import functionality only imports from the server, not your client pc (so the path you enter is a path on the server which I presume is a Windows machine). To bulk upload use zip files. Peter

About Bring2mind

Bring2mind is the company of Peter Donker, a DotNetNuke enthusiast who has been involved with the platform from the very beginning. At the same time as the market for modules emerged, he realized there was no good document management solution for the platform yet and he set about creating this. In part he based the module on his experience with other document management systems he used while working as a researcher. His module, Document Exchange, was an instant success and has since become the premier document management solution for DotNetNuke. In 2004 he created Bring2mind as a vehicle for the module and is one of the few successful businesses solely based on a DotNetNuke product.
