When you add an item as a Zip File, you can upload compressed files from your computer to pages in Portal. Users with the appropriate security privileges can upload compressed files of virtually any size or quantity.
Note: Each extracted file in the Zip File is displayed in the page area as an item link. By creating descriptive file names before zipping files to be uploaded, you can provide meaningful link names to guide users to the file.
Uploaded files are accessible through automatically created links in the page area. If you do not upload path information, links for the uploaded pages display in a single page that you specify. If you upload path information, links for each level are displayed in a common page for each level.
To upload path information, in the WinZip application select Include Subpages and Save Extra Page Info. The relative locations of your files when you zip them are the relative locations they have when uploaded.
To upload files without path information, clear the Include Subpages and Save Extra Page Info check boxes. All files in the Zip File item are uploaded into a page that you specify.
Files can be uploaded with or without directory path information.
If path information is included with the zip file(s), Portal maintains the directory structure in Zip File items. If your Zip File item contains directories, Portal would create sub-pages inside the target page upon completion of the Bulk Load process.
If path information is not included, Portal loads the files into a single, user-specified target page. No sub-pages are created.
If you are uploading an HTML file with a title, the text between the <TITLE></TITLE> tags becomes the item's display name link.
You can associate categories and perspectives with any uploaded file. Once associated, both categories and perspectives are retained by uploaded files, even if those files are overwritten with newer files of the same name. However, categories and perspectives are not maintained if item version control is enabled and when the Create New Version option is selected for uploaded files.
