Monitoring FilesTo view the product attachment files uploaded to your Magento 2 store, go to Catalog > Product Downloads by Aheadworks > Files. The page suggests the Files Grid, Add New Attachment and Synchronize Attachments buttons. The Files Grid aggregates the details about all uploaded to the system product attachment files. The grid has the following columns:
The grid is sortable and supports pagination. Adding FilesThere are four ways of adding product attachment files to the system:
Add Files to FTPUpload files to media/aw_pd/files. When files are uploaded onto the ftp-server, they will automatically get represented in the Files grid. This requires re-indexing the database, which can be done in two ways:
Add Files to Files GridTo add files one-by-one to the Files grid, go to Catalog > Product Downloads by Aheadworks and click on the Add New Attachment button. The New File page will get loaded, similar to that of Edit [Name] File. The New/Edit File page has the following parameters for configuration:
Click Save in the top right when finished to save the configuration of the file and add it to the Files grid. Attach Files to ProductsTo attach files to a product, proceed to Catalog > Inventory > Products and select a product for editing. When the Product page is loaded, scroll down to the Product Downloads section. The Product Downloads section allows attaching multiple files to the product. The Admin can attach either existing files or upload new ones. The section delivers the functionality to attach files and to browse the files which have already been associated with the product. The latter is done with the grid located at the bottom of the section. The grid with the attached files has the following columns:
The grid supports pagination and allows re-arranging the order of the rows. The latter is needed to set the order of the files on the Storefront. To re-arrange the order of the rows, make use of the icon next to the ID of the file. Push on the icon, and drag-and-drop the row to the new position. The grid will get populated as files are being attached to the product. To attach files which have already been uploaded to the system, click on the Select Existing File button. The Select Files popover will emerge. The popover fetches the Files grid with check-boxes next to each row. Tick the check-boxes which correspond to the chosen files and click on the Add Selected Files button below the grid. The popover will get closed, the files will be added to the product, and the Product Downloads sections on the Product page will get updated. To attach files which have not yet been added to the system, make use either of the "Click here or drag-and-drop files" area or the Add a Link text-field. Files attached to a product this way, will automatically populate the Files grid and will receive default values for the following parameters:
You can add multiple files in one go with the help of the 'Click here or drag-and-drop files", but only one file at a time with the help of Add a Link. To do so, insert a link into the Add a Link text-field and click on the Add Link button. Import/Export FilesTo import product attachment files to the system, go to System > Data Transfer > Import and perform the operations as described in the official Magento 2 user-guide. |
