modifying file sharing module

Hi again Joe -

Couldn't find any documentation related to this type of mod, and wasn't sure where this should go:

I'd like to modify the file sharing module to understand MSOffice07 file extensions and map the icons accordingly. I imagine it's just adding a couple lines to the code, to display the word doc icon for .doc and .docx, likewise for pptx and xlsx. Is that something I can do easily?

Thanks!

Kevin

Re: modifying file sharing module

Hi Kevin,

All thats needed to add new file types is to create icons in the correct naming in the /Data/SiteImages/Icons folder. So we can make a copy of the doc.gif and name it docx.gif and the xls.gif can be copied and named as xlsx.gif and so on. I will add those in my copy today so it will be in the next release but you can do the same on your installation.

Best,

Joe
