Manage community folders

Create community folders and use them to organize files.

You must be a community owner to create community folders.

Your administrator must enable the community folder feature. Contact the administrator for more information.

In addition to sharing personal folders with Communities, we can create community folders and use them to organize files.

We can add both personal files that are shared with the community and community owned files to community folders.

The following restrictions apply to community folders:

• We cannot create sub folders in a community folder.

• We can put community owned files only in community folders.

• We can put a community owned file in only one community folder.

Perform the following tasks to manage community folders.

• To create a new community folder, click Add Folders in either the Files widget on the Community Overview page or the Community Files page.

• To add a shared folder to the community, click Share Existing Folders in the Add Folders dialog, select one of the options that are shown, and click Add Folder.

• To add a community owned file to a community folder, choose one of the following options:

  • On the Community Folders page, click Add Files and select one of the following locations: My Computer, or This Community.

  • On the community File page, click Add to Folder and select the folder to which to add the file.

  Both shared and community folders are displayed in the Folders list.

• To move community owned files between folders:

  1. On the Community File page, select the file to move and click Move this file to a Folder.

  2. On the Move to Folder page, select the folder to where you want to move the file, then click Move to Folder.
