Hi,

The most generic way to do it is by Content Repository (CR).  But you may want to look at packages that use CR like file-storage.  If that is near what you want, then just customize it.  I am working on bcms which is not really ready yet for end user.  But the code should give you an idea how to  use the CR.

Thank you for your help.  I have been doing some reading about the content repository.  I kind of understand the concept behind it.  The problem is how to get started to use it?  On the tutorial type page, it mention something creating a table and writing some tcl codes.  Do I really need to do all of that?  If yes, is there specific names and locations to store them? How do I use the CR?  I have installed file storage, and have uploaded some files, urls and folders.  When I tried doing a search on the content of the file storage package, there was no result.  Am I doing something wrong?
