This module enhances the generic and image upload fields so that you can populate any file field from a variety of sources, such as entering remote URLs directly, re-use existing uploaded files, pull from a server directory, or a variety of other possibilities.
- Install and enable this module using the official Backdrop CMS instructions at https://backdropcms.org/guide/modules
- Add or configure an existing file or image field.
- To configure a typical node field, visit Admin -> Structure -> Content types and click "Manage fields" on a type you'd like to modify. Add a new file or image field or edit an existing one.
- While editing the file or image field, you'll have new options available under a "File sources" fieldset. You can enable the desired sources for that particular field.
- Create a piece of content that uses your file and try it out.
Bugs and Feature requests should be reported in the Issue Queue: https://github.com/backdrop-contrib/filefield_sources/issues.
- Herb v/d Dool
- This module is currently seeking maintainers.
