Saving documents

[malcek]

Hi,
I want to know where SugarCrm saving uploaded documents (to database or on disk).

Best regards,
Martin

In config.php there is a line for the upload directory which is by default
'upload_dir' => 'cache/upload/',

So documents and notes are uploaded to this directory.
The filename of the uploaded document is the id of the document revision or the note.

Ok thanks for that, now I have two more question.
1. Is this 'cache/upload dir searcheble by Google spiders or another?
2. Is the number of documents in cache dir affecting the preformance of Sugar system (speed , etc)

thank you for your help,
martin

NO, this directory is pretected by an .htaccess entry in SugarCRM root directory. It is not recommended to open this directory for external crawlers.

2. Is the number of documents in cache dir affecting the preformance of Sugar system (speed , etc)

NO, this should have no impacts.

I didn't think to open, just checking .

In the upload directory, not only your uploaded documents are stored but also all your installed software packages, your import csv files and other critical data.

Thanks, I check the directory and find all kinds of files there. Now I know where to find uploaded files.

and i have the final question, I hope
When you search for the documents and type in to search field part of the name it won't find anything unless the name of document starts with typed letters. Can I setup to search by whole wodr or part of it. Lets say that I want to find document containing wodr shirt, the return search sould be all documents containing word shirt.

Unfortunately NO. (or not yet?)

That's one of the most wanted features here in the forum...

Strange, that the system like Sugar isn't supporting that.

Thanks anyway,

Martin
