How to show a list of files

Create a [filelist] shortcut.

The following arguments are available, all are optional:

Folder = folder under media/filelist of files and subfolders to show
Extensions = extensions of files to list, - for all extensions; separate multiple extensions with commas without spaces
Collapse = collapse the lists of subfolders

How names of files and folders are shown

Trailing digits and hyphens in the names of files and folders are used for sorting, but not shown in the link text.

To display characters forbidden in filenames, use the following mnemonics prefixed with =:

Character Name Mnemonic
: colon =c
? question mark =q
/ slash =s
* asterisk =a
" double quotes =d
< less than =l
> greater than =g
\ backslash =b
| pipe =p
= equal ==

For example the filename 5-Quo vadis=q.pdf will be displayed as Quo vadis?.

If a text file is found in the same folder, with the same name of the file to be listed and the extension .text, its content (just one line) will be displayed as the link text. In this way, the link text will not be drawn from the filename and forbidden characters can be used without resorting to the above encoding.
