Where is the folder I created?
SO folder is in main dashboard or as sub folder of some other there might have been an error telling you that folder was not created, try creating folder with some other name .. as folders are global on root folder so if I have Images you can't have images, create first folder
with the name of your website or nickname and then inside of that one create what ever name you want.
Hello there,
Our business needs dictate that we upload some duplicates but with different ids (in the same folder), when i try to do that your system somehow detects that the file has already been uploaded and does not upload the new one.
This is apparent when i try to push a different file using the same initial URL for example:
- old_url: http://example.com/1.jpg ... a picture of a cat
- new_url: http://example.com/1.jpg ... a picture of a dog
The new file gets uploaded but a _B is appended to its public id (the old one still exists), this tells me that you're comparing file signatures on the files upon upload.
Is there any solution to upload duplicates with different ids in the same folder, and is there a way for me to overwrite existing files?
Thanks
I'm changing the public ID with each upload so its not a duplicate ID issue ... basically i'm trying to upload the same file twice, but each time with a different public ID ... but I can't
HI, Is it possible to host a Publitio video on a LearnDash page? I tried but it gives an error. So I think it's not possible or is there a solution>
Using LearnDash for hosting is such a smart move—it’s a powerful platform that can really streamline course creation. I’ve worked on similar projects, and while building the course structure is exciting, handling all the content can sometimes feel overwhelming. That’s when I found https://essaybox.org/ super helpful—it gave me the extra support I needed to organize and polish my materials. It’s all about making sure the content matches the quality of the platform you’re hosting on. Have you already mapped out your course modules, or are you still brainstorming the best way to structure everything?
I am looking for a bit more of an explanation on file privacy.
I want my website members to be able to download files within a closed self-hosted LMS (learning management system) from the Publit.io URLs I provide my website users but I don't want the URLs to be publicly found anywhere else (ideally, the URLs can't be shared from a member to a non-member either).
How does the Privacy toggle work?
I also want my users to be able to listen to audio files (hosted on Publit.io) on my site, and similarly I don't want them to be listenable/downloadable anywhere else but on the page I use them.
Thanks Publitio for the information. This information helped me understand better that Domain Level protection is something I would like to enable. So I am testing Domain Level Protection. After I made this change, my embedded files gave me an error that domain level protection was stopping me from using (Despite me using the correct domain). Does it take some time for the error to go away?

To set a custom thumb for your video, follow these simple steps :

2. Upload an Image you want to use as a custom thumb at https://publit.io/dashboard/files
3. Edit Video by clicking Edit under the "..." and going to edit a page at https://publit.io/dashboard/files
4. Look there for the Thumbnail field, and search/select Image you want to use as a custom thumb. Save changes by clicking Update button at the end of the page.
That's it. Your video will now have a custom thumb set
When wanting to add a publitio hosted media within a gutenberg block, I systematically get the following message :
The page has expired due to inactivity.
Please refresh and try again.
I am however connected to your site and I have the correct API key and secret configured in the Wordpress plugin interface.
Any suggestions on how to correct?
With many thanks,
John
problem seams to be caused by Safari browser not allowing session/cookies to be set via iframe (which our plugin use).
Looks like we have found a workaround, plugin will ask you to go to publit.io and to login there directly if on Safari browser. After that just refresh/reopen publitio media library within wordpress. Let us know if encounter same error again
