How to show the uploaded file in File picker in Moodle? - moodle

Hi I am working with Moodle 2.9.1. Here I have a form for upload a question and an answer file. I successfully upload the answer file to a location and inserted the question text and answer file name in database.
Now I want to edit the question, while editing the question the already uploaded file will be shown in the file picker area.
How can I show the uploaded file in filepicker area??
For text editor I can use
$mform->addElement('editor', 'desc', get_string('description'));
$mform->setDefault('desc', array('text'=>$defaulttext));
Please help me..

The filepicker element is used for uploading a single one-off file, that will be processed (and then, usually, discarded). If you are wanting a file that remains part of the Moodle storage and will reappear when you reopen the form, then you should use a filemanager (and restrict to a single file, if needed).
There are details in the Moodle docs about how to use this https://docs.moodle.org/dev/Using_the_File_API_in_Moodle_forms#filemanager (including re-populating the 'draft files' area when you load the form).

Android file deleting process leaves empty placeholder in gallery

I am developing an app that fetches the file from file manager. When file is accessed from
DCIM/Camera folder and moved into another place programmatically. This leaves and empty placeholder in the gallery. If these placeholders are not deleted, then if the file is moved again into DCIM/Camera it shows the file in gallery. If that placeholder is deleted, and file is moved again into DCIM/Camera the file is not shown on Gallery. I searched the answer for this question but all of those answers are in Java. But I am developing my app in flutter.
suggest me a solution in Flutter/dart.
This was the only one answer I found but in Java Android file delete leaves empty placeholder in Gallery
Thanks in advance.

Save image with Tinymce

I implemented Tinymce on a website and it's being used as a content editor by the owner of the website (the content is saved in a .txt file). I would like to know if it is possible to save an image uploaded in the tinymce editor into a specific folder on the server.
Thanks!
You'll be able to choose a specific location for image uploading using the images_upload_url property. You can read more on that and our Image Uploading API here: https://www.tinymce.com/docs/configure/file-image-upload/

TYPO3 won't update front-end page after external TypoScript modification

I am trying to edit a .ts file through the Quixplorer.
I click on edit, add the link and hit save. But it does not get updated on the actual page.
When I click a preview of the file within the Quixplorer i can see my change but it just won't show on the homepage...
Any ideas?
While editing *.ts files it is always required to clear whole cache from the backend, to take changes into account.
Also make sure, that you're modifying correct file. The often mistake is editing files which aren't included to the DB TS template. You can verify that with the Template module (after cache clearing).

Trying to get along with Interwoven

I am to create a new design (CSS & HTML) for a web site which is created using Interwoven ContentCenter Professional.
Now, I can see the existing files in CMS (Interwoven) but, I can't make changes. My changes are displayed only when I'm in edit mode. Nothing in the live page. I tried to submit, create editions of files but still no good.
How should I create or edit pages in Interwoven CMS?
Thanks.
If you're talking about generic pages, then once you are finished you have to click on the Generate option, then choose a directory and click Finish. Last thing you should do is to choose yeswhen it asks you to Re-generate the page.
What you are trying to do is just creating a new file, not generating a file from TeamSite's Formpublisher. It is just like if you are in Windows Explorer and creating a new file. In order to generate a file from a form entry, you need to be in the templatedata directory, ex: /default/main/branch1/WORKAREA/wa1/templatedata/category/type(on unix) or Y:/default/main/branch1/WORKAREA/wa1/templatedata/category/type (on Windows). There should be a file call datacapture.cfg there. There is another directory called data under the above path which stores your data content record (dcr) that are created from the form. This is the file that you can use to generate which will use the (tpl) file under the presentation directory.

How can I simply add a downloadable PDF file to my page?

I want to add a pdf and word format of my resume to my portfolio page and make it downloadable. Does anyone have some simple script?
Add a link to the file and let the browser handle the download.
You may be over-complicating the problem. It's possible to use a href pointing to the location of the .pdf or .doc file, when a user clicks on this in their browser, generally they will be asked if they would like to save or open the file, depending on their OS/configuration.
If this is still confusing, leave a comment and I'll explain anything you don't get.
Create the PDF. Upload it. Add a link.
Save yourself 30 minutes tossing around with PDFGEN code.
You will want to issue or employ the Content-Disposition HTTP header to force the download otherwise some browsers may recognize the common file extensions and try to automatically open the file contents. It will feel more professional if the link actually downloads the file instead of launching an app - important for a resume I think.
Content-Disposition must be generated within the page from the server side as far as I know.
Option:
Upload your resume to Google Docs.
Add a link to the file on your portfolio page just as I do in the menu of my blog:
Use Google Docs Viewer passing to it the URL of the PDF as you can see in this link.
