Thanks for the heads up Matt. I will switch up my attack and use WP Query to access the filtered data.

Thom,
Back on this issue again. Here is what they are struggling with.
—-Main
—Sub 1
–Sub 1a
—Sub 2
–Sub 2a
—Sub 3
–Sub 3a

When they log in and see the Main drawers they are unaware if anyone has added anything to the Sub a folders. The structure is set up where no files will ever be dropped in anything but the Sub a drawers. This means the user has to come and go out of those directories looking for new info. If Main showed a file size or data modified from any of the subfolders then someone could dive in. Once they got to Sub (non a) folders the same would apply. See below as my example.

–Main (modified 4/5/2019)
–Sub 1
–Sub 1a
–Sub 2 (modified 4/5/2019)
–Sub 2a (the files has been uploaded here but at least I knew from the Main telling me something had been modified)
–Sub 3
–Sub 3a

The client is confused because the main folder always looks non modified or has no size.
I hope this makes sense. Thanks for your effort and expertise.
Jon

My guess is your AJAX solution is the same as mine. I used recursive tables. I will send you a copy anyway. Never know if there is anything useful in it!

Yeah I converted it to recursive and see the benefits but in my case it won’t work. They need to see what folder it sits in. It could be that more then one folder will hold a file called sample1results.xls. Having all of them out on one page wouldn’t do much for them. Hey I tried. Thanks for the response.

They want to see if there is a file in a directory instead of having to dig down to the actual location where the files sit. They have folders in folders… Looking for an easier way to show a file exists

I have solved the issue. The client was wanting the DRAWERS to show a date and size to show. Once I get to the actual files I do see the Date and Size.
Nothing to do for folder creation I assume?

Folders have 0755
Files have 0644

Great solution for the short term. I realize I will lose it on updates but can always reapply.

Thanks for the feedback. Anywhere in your code I can throw a simple whole page refresh on when the last document uploads? Any small piece of JavaScript I could throw in the footer that can trigger the refresh? Any ajax that can help?

Notice: wp_enqueue_style was called incorrectly. Scripts and styles should not be registered or enqueued until the wp_enqueue_scripts, admin_enqueue_scripts, or login_enqueue_scripts hooks.

I get that on every page. I get nothing different if on a FileAway page.
Thanks for helping.

Oh it works! We loaded it and have been testing it on our multisite. Once we fully implement on the forward facing site we will report back! The school is very happy.

You love when the person finds the answer they need anyway!

Love the plugin!

We follow yoru directions and still got the old FTP block error.
We simply make an include once to the php file in our include and it worked!
We need to follow up with support here at the university about the no FTP thing.

David. When I go to install the example an FTP login needed. I am not allowed to do that. I see the php file I need in your example folder. What do I need to do to activate it? Make it an include in the functions.php? On install does it move it somewhere? It just looks like an extension to me so putting it as an include in the functions seems to make sense. Just trying to find a way around this FTP thing
