    Hello Tom,

    Firstly a BIG THANKS to you for this marvellous plugin you have created.
    Can’t imagine a film production artist having such programming capabilities.
    It is beyond me.

    Now my issue…

    3 Questions please.

    1) I want to remove the “TYPE” and “DATE MODIFIED” columns from my file listing tables. I have been through all the attributes but could not find the option. Can this be done ? If so, How ?

    2) Is there a way to change the format of the date stamp used by the “DATE MODIFIED” column ? It is not adhering to the format set on the WordPress General settings page.

    3) How can I add a column to display the serial number of a file entry in the table ?

    Will be greatly obliged to receive a reply.

    Thanks again.

    To hide the Date column, add mod=”no” to the shortcode. The Type column cannot be hidden, except by css, as it is utilized for some things behind the scenes. To add a single custom column, add customdata=”Your Column Name” to the shortcode. Then the filenames will have to have the custom data in square brackets before the file extension, e.g.,

    File 1 [Custom Stuff Here].jpg

    To add more than one custom column, separate by comma:

    Add customdata=”Col1 Name, Col2 Name” to shortcode

    Filenames like this:

    File 1 [Col1 stuff, col2 stuff].jpg

    mod=”no” did the job of supressing the Date Modified column.
    Thanks

    Any way to change the format of the Date when I choose to display it ?

    Also Changing the filenames of hundreds of files is impractical.
    I just want to display serial nos. in the leftmost column.
    Is there any other way I can display the serial number of the table row ?

    What is a serial number? What is generating this serial number? File Away does not have serial numbers.

    You can choose between MM/DD/YYYY and DD/MM/YYYY on the Options tab of File Away settings.

    Got the Date formatting right. Thanks Thom.

    I just want to number the rows in the file table to make it easier to read the table and refer to a particular file in it. Just like in an Excel spreadsheet.
