Hi techies,

I am new to ezpublishing. I am using Ezpublish 4.1.1 version,Linux PHP 5.2.X, Apache 2.2.x

I have the below requirement

Option-1
1. We want to upload content files(word,PDF,zip etc) to linux box temporary folder using FTP/Secure-FTP client. Once the files get uploaded to temporary folder, all files should be pushed to Ezpublishing application in content section of some particular node, and content object should be created and workflow need to be initiated for further processing.

Option-2
1. We want to upload content files(word,PDF,zip etc) to directly to Ezpublishing application in content section of some particular node using FTP/Secure-FTP(here content are not storing in temp location of linux box), and content object should be created and workflow need to be initiated for further processing.
Is Option-2 possible technically in ezpublsihing?

To get the above result(either option-1, or option-2), Do we need to use some Ezpublshing extension like ezFTP or write cron job(Import or Update php) for uploading to particular node in ezpublishing?
Please provide you thoughts on the above specified option and feasibility.

It would be great help if we get some useful sample (cron job?) PHP script for achieving the above requirement.

Thanks in advance.

Hello Mathew,

Option 2 is possible but with webdav:
