Folder Lists

You can use a folder list to list the folders within a specified folder from your Oracle Content Management account.

If you use this component in conjunction with one or more file list or document manager components on the page, these components can automatically display the contents of a folder selected in the folder list.

To add a folder list component to a page:

1. Navigate to the page you want to edit and make sure that is set to Edit.
2. Add the component to the page.
3. To edit the component and its appearance, click its menu icon , and choose Settings.
4. Choose Custom Settings to set the default details about the content that’s displayed.
5. Click Select next to Folder Selection to change the folder to use for display. You must select a folder other than document repository home page. Click Back when you are done.

   Note:

   The folder list grants all users downloader access. Users can view and download files regardless of their role. If a site visitor has privileges that are greater than those specified for the component, their individual privileges override those set on the component.
6. Choose from the following to set additional defaults for the content that’s displayed.

   • Choose Default Selection: If you selected Oracle Documents Folder, select the folder (if any) to show as selected in the list.

   • Show folder name header: Select this to display the folder name in the heading of the embedded component.

   • Folder Sorting: Choose how the items will be initially displayed, either alphabetically by name, or by when the items were last updated.

   • Show Subfolders: Use the slide bar to limit the number of subfolders displayed.

7. Use the General tab to modify spacing, alignment, and other presentation options.
8. Use the Style tab to format the frame that contains the component with predefined styles or with your own custom choices.
