Open-DocumentLibrary v2.1 Enterprise Document Management Has Never Been Easier
Open-DocumentLibrary allows DotNetNuke users to share and manage documents in a flexible, intelligent way, offering granular control over Folder and Document access.
The module offers the possibility to manage and organize documents by physical Folder and by logical Categories, thus making it easy for your users to look for and find documents according to areas of interest. The Administrator can also choose among multiple display options.
All functionality is developed using Ajax, to maximize the responsiveness of the module. The administartor can Drag and Drop folders and categories to change the structure and organization of the hierarchy. By right clicking on the folders/categories, Administrators will be able to access all the advanced administrator features to administer the library and each folder/category as well as document. Thanks to Ajax, all functionality is available withouth having to refresh the web page.
Demo In the live demo you are automatically granted admin access to a specific folder, so that you may get a feel as to how Open-DocumentLibrary works. The demo does not grant access to statistics and module settings. See it at http://opendnn.net/tabid/94/Default.aspx.
Owner's Manual For an in-depth discussion of all of Open-DocumentLibrary and its powerful features, we have created an owner's manual that can be downloaded at http://www.opendnn.net/tabid/95/Default.aspx?xsfid=15.
Features and Benefits
Features
Benefits
Organize Documents by Folders and/or Categories.
You can define Folders/Categories in a hierarchical way and as many levels deep as you like. The folders/categories you create will be presented to the users in a way similar to the familiar Windows Explorer format and interface. You will associate a document to a folder and as many categories as needed, and decide what folders/categories (and what documents inside those folders/categories) a user and or user role can see or not see.
Keep track of folder, category and document access.
You are able to see who is clicking on folders and categories as well as who is downloading the available documents. All statistics can be filtered by user profile and access dates, as well as other folder or category specific parameters.
Ajax Enabled
Ajax makes the Ui extremely fast and responsive to users and administrators alike.
Drag & Drop
Just like in Windows Explorer, you can drag & drop Folders around in order to change their place in the hierarchy. Thanks to the use of Ajax, these changes will be reflected immediately in your library.
Administer the module through Context Menus. They are just a [right click] away.
Access to all administrative functionality is granted through context menus that are available on every folder. According to the rights that the user has, the context menu can allow to: Add, Edit, Delete folders, as well as Upload documents to it.
Administrative Granularity
The Site Administrator and the SupeUser accounts can assign a number of rights to Folders and Documents, that effectively grant or restrict all aspects of the access a user gets to a folder or the documents therein contained. View, Add, Edit, Delete and Change Security rights can be given on a folder, while View, and Edit rights can be granted on the documents contained in that folder.
Access by User and Role
A particular user will only see or be able to edit those folders or categories that he/she has been granted access to, through the rights that have been assigned to him/her specifically or to his/her role.
Folder Syncronization
You can opt to create your Document Library from scratch, or to create it from a pre-existing folder structure. Just point the library to the folder that contains all of your sub-folders and documents, and the module will do the rest. (Note: in this version, the folder needs to be created or exist in the default root folder of the portal).
UNC Share support
Folders can be created under the home directory of the portal (the same used by the DNN file manager) or another location on the hard disk, as well as a UNC share, as long as the appropriate rights are granted to the ASP.NET/Network Serices user.
Versioning
Versioning allows you to save versions of the documents and restore them on demand. Versioning is automatic when you upload files in the same folder and with the same name. You can also opt to create a version manually, or to turn versioning off.
System Requirements
Compatibility: DNN 3.3.x or higher, DNN 4.1.x or higher. (contact us directly for previous versions compatibility)
Not compatible with ViewState InMemory Caching. (Page caching is the default)
One instance of the module per page (no limit on number of pages)
