The File Management System allows student administrators and mentors to add documents that are relevant for students. Files are added to the database in an embedded HTML form.
Due to series of issues, the maximum file size that can be uploaded is only a few megabytes. However, this is usually not a problem because most documents are not that large. But if a larger file needs to be added, it needs to be added to the mySQL database. In the future, a system similar to the FTP Scanning System for the media management section will be implemented so that anyone can upload files manually (without having direct access to the database). |
