# Files
|
|
|
|
The Files module allows you to view the files found in your media directory. No files outside the media directory
|
|
can be viewed.
|
|
|
|
The Files module is different from other modules in WROLPi (Videos/Archives/etc.) because the files displayed are not
|
|
fetched from the database, they are read from the media directory live. This is necessary to allow refreshing of files
|
|
that have recently been created, and are not yet in the database.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Refreshing
|
|
|
|
WROLPi can search any file in your media directory, this can only be accomplished after a full files refresh has been
|
|
completed.
|
|
|
|
> To refresh all your files, click the **Files** link in the top navigation bar, then click **Refresh** found at the
|
|
> bottom of the files table.
|
|
|
|
## Files Tools
|
|
|
|
The contents of the media directory can be manipulated in the Files module using the buttons on the bottom of the files
|
|
table.
|
|
|
|
**It is recommended to manipulate files using the provided tools. WROLPi can lose track of your files if you manipulate
|
|
them outside of these tools.**
|
|
|
|
The tool buttons are as displayed:
|
|
|
|
1. **Refresh** button
|
|
* This button will refresh all files in your media directory, or any files/directories you have selected.
|
|
2. **Delete** button
|
|
* This button will delete any files or directories selected.
|
|
3. **Rename** button
|
|
* Allows you to rename a single file or directory.
|
|
4. **Move** button
|
|
* Allows you to move files/directories into another directory.
|
|
5. **New Directory** button
|
|
* Allows you to create a new directory in the directory selected (or, the top directory if no directory is
|
|
selected.)
|
|
|
|
## File Preview
|
|
|
|
When clicking on any file, WROLPi will attempt to provide you with a preview of the file. If no previewer has been
|
|
created for the particular file type has been created, then the generic file preview will be used.
