=How connect BoxBridge to a Box.net folder?
Videotutorial Connect Boxbridge
How to connect a Box.net file to a Joomla article?
Videotutorial Box.net in article
Will box.net files listed in articles show up in a joomla search?
No, Boxbridge is a plugin that loads the content of Box.net. The text of a Joomla article says for example no more than "{boxfile 3245252}".
The search should be perfomed at Box.net, and the results passed through to Joomla. But again: we do not offer that functionality yet and there is no releaseplan available too. Boxbridge is "as is" for the time being.
instructions not correct?
The instructions you have on how to get the shared link are not correct. If you request a shared link it outputs something like this https://box.net/shared/dslk4sd4” in order to get the file folder ID that worked. I had to generate an HTML widget and pull the ID from the widget code.
2Value checked the instruction more than once and we think they are functional. Please try to follow the tutorials first.
In Use
Storage management
I need some control on how many times files can be downloaded, expriry in days etc. Could that be added to Boxbridge?
At the moment we do not have such functionality avaiable in Boxbridge. Boxbridge is a Joomla window to Box.net; no more, it does not add storage management.
Developer User:spotjer: Wat betreft onderstaande, dit is momenteel geen functionaliteit inderdaad en vergt nodige verdere ontwikkeling. We zouden dan een extra beheerslaag gaan maken tussen Joomla en BoxBridge, momenteel worden alle instellingen aan box.net zijde gedaan.
Version up to date?
Do I have the latest? The plugin in the backend of Joomla does not say what version I have.
You find the plugin under Extensions -> Install/Deinstall -> tab "plugins" and locate the current version there (of all plugins).
How do I update?
Should I just upload the new version over the old version? Yes, just move over the old version, or safer: make a backup first, then update & check.
