## Description

Spoiler:
 [LIBRARY VIEWER FOR WOOCOMMERCE ADD-ON](https://www.pexlechris.dev/library-viewer/for-woocommerce/)
has been released! Check it 😉

With Library Viewer, you can display the containing files and the containing folders
of a «specific folder» of your (FTP) server to your users in the front-end.

The **significant difference** from other similar plugins is that:
 1. You can allow
users to **view that the files exist**, but **cannot open them if they are not logged
in** (or if they are not administrators, or authors etc…). 2. You can allow users
to view files in a **custom viewer or redirect them** through a RESTful web service
of your choice(examples exists below).

[DEMO](https://www.pexlechris.dev/library-viewer/demo-wp)

For this plugin (the free version), the «specific folder» is the folder
 «library»
of your httpdocs(yoursite.com/library). If you want to display other folder (and
its files) that isn’t contained in yoursite.com/library , you need to use the path
parameter of [Library Viewer Pro](https://www.pexlechris.dev/library-viewer/pro-wp).

This plugin adds the [library-viewer] shortcode in your WordPress site!
 So the 
only thing that you must do to display the folders and files in the front-end is
to add this shortcode in a post, page, widget etc.

The [library-viewer] shortcode get **optional parameters** that extend the functionality
of plugin:

 * The algorithm does not show in the front-end folders that contains in their name
   the string «hidden-folder».
    Also does not show .php , .ini files and files that
   contains in their name the string «hidden-file». So if you don’t want to display
   an existing folder or file, you can rename it appropriately! In addition, With**
   Library Viewer Pro**, you can **set the names that you don’t (and you do) want
   to be displayed** in the front-end using appropriate shortcode parameters.
 * If you want to add text above the front-end folders or below the front-end files,
   view more in the FAQ below.
 * In addition, with the **[LIBRARY VIEWER PRO](https://www.pexlechris.dev/library-viewer/pro-wp)**
   you can,
    - customize the URLs of library viewer, with the hooks and the parameters.
    - you can display folders & files of a directory (in FTP) of your choice, **
      not only library directory** (yoursite.com/library)
    - you can hide the breadcrumb with just a shortcode parameter.
    - you can show/hide the folders and files of your choice.
 * Also, with the **[LIBRARY VIEWER FOR WOOCOMMERCE ADD-ON](https://www.pexlechris.dev/library-viewer/for-woocommerce/)**
   you can,
    - give the ability to you users to **gain folder access** to a Library (to a
      page with the Library Viewer shortcode installed), just **buying** a virtual/
      with-folder-access product.
 * Finally, with the **[LIBRARY VIEWER FILE MANAGER ADD-ON](https://www.pexlechris.dev/library-viewer/fm-wp)**
   you can,
    - give the ability to your users to have their own library and to upload and
      edit files.

      Viewer Pro, and to restrict the WP page from other users)

   breadcrumb and the folders, the string-value of the $text_at_end variable is

    viewer.zip file.
 3. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress Dashboard
 4. Add to a new or existing page/post (or widget etc.) the shortcodes [library-viewer]
    with the parameters of your choice.
 5. Create the folder library and put files and folders there.

## FAQ

### Can I forbid the direct access in the files of the library? I want only via library files can be accessible.

With Library Viewer Pro, you can! See this support topic: [wordpress.org/support/topic/executable-pdf-file](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/executable-pdf-file/)

### How can I deny users to execute php files in folders of my library?

You need to add the following code in the .htaccess file of the folder that you 
want to deny users execute php files

    ```
      <Files *.php>
      deny from all
      </Files>
    ```

### Can I hide an existing folder or file of FTP folder from the front-end library?

Yes. Please read carefully the section «Other Details» of plugin.

### Are there shortcode examples?

You can test your own use cases in the [DEMO](https://www.pexlechris.dev/library-viewer/demo-wp)

### Which Page Builders are compatible with Library Viewer?

Library Viewer have been tested with TinyMCE (Classic Editor), Gutenberg, WPBakery,
Visual Composer, Elementor and works fine!
 Generally can be used, everywhere that
shortcodes are accepted…

### Library Viewer does not work properly and/or I get some ERRORS. Why?

 * Check your permalinks PLAIN PERMALINKS ARE NOT SUPPORTED. Please change your 
   permalink from /wp-admin/options-permalink.php to something else.
    - Check the folders’ and files’ read permissions (safe choice is to use 644)
    - If you use the plugin **Remove Uppercase Ascents** and a CSS code like _.library-
      viewer—folder{text-transform: uppercase;}_ maybe this cause the problem. The
      solution in this case is to use instead this CSS code: .library-viewer—folder
      h3 a{text-transform: uppercase;}
 * Check if the file or folder has special characters in its name. Some are not 
   supported as names of folders and files such as %.
    In this case, contact me 
   via [email](https://kk.wordpress.org/plugins/library-viewer/info@pexlechris.dev?output_format=md)
   or via [support forum](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/library-viewer/) 
   to find a solution!

    - For other problems, you can open a support ticket in [support forum](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/library-viewer/)

### Can I add my custom text inside a folder of front-end library viewer?

Yes. If you want to add text above the front-end folders or below the front-end 
files, you can create via FTP a file with name «include.php» in the FTP folder that
you want texts to be shown in front-end.
 HTML tags are allowed! Your texts must
be values of php variables ($text_at_beginning , $text_at_end respectively) as you
can see below:

    ```
      <?php
      $text_at_beginning = "My text above front-end folders";
      $text_at_end = "My text below front-end files";
      ?>
    ```

 
 Also, you can use the hooks `lv_folder_text_at_beginning` and `lv_folder_text_at_end`
respectively for this scope.

### How to upload files and create new folders?

You can do this via FTP/cPanel or you can buy the **[Library Viewer File Manager Add-on](https://www.pexlechris.dev/library-viewer/fm-wp)**
to manage the folder from the front-end.

### Is Library Viewer’ file viewer supports all mime types (file extensions)?

From 1.1.2, the Library Viewer’ file viewer supports all mime types that wordpress
supports.
 These that included in the function: wp_get_mime_types() If you want 
to add support for mime types that are not included, use the WP filter: lv_mime_types
to include them. Read more in [HOOKS DOCUMENTATION](https://www.pexlechris.dev/library-viewer/hooks-wp#lv_mime_types)
Read also [how to add PHP hooks in your WordPress Site in my blog](https://www.pexlechris.dev/how-to-add-php-hooks-in-your-wordpress-site)

### I want all files to be downloaded. Is that possible?

Yes, you need to use the Library Viewer’ file viewer (my_doc_viewer=»library-viewer»)
and to add the following hook in your functions.php

    ```
      add_filter('lv_mime_types', function(){
        return array();
      });
    ```

Read [how to add PHP hooks in your WordPress Site in my blog](https://www.pexlechris.dev/how-to-add-php-hooks-in-your-wordpress-site)

### Can I change the colors or the fonts that plugin uses?

Yes. But only with plain CSS at the moment. So you can add your custom css from 
WP customizer (from Additional CSS)

### I have a proposal for a new functionality of this plugin. Can I suggest it to you?

Yes. I need new ideas to improve my plugin. Send it to me via [email](https://kk.wordpress.org/plugins/library-viewer/info@pexlechris.dev?output_format=md)
or via [support forum](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/library-viewer/)

This plugin was exactly what I was looking for, I just wanted to browse the files
and folders structure of an already existing directory, with this, now our group
of students can have a very easy access to our pdf, mp3, mp4 and more. Also, the
author is very collaborative and keen to help as soon as possible.

A very handy plug-in that lets you display and use the contents of a directory. 
You can deal with the contents of the directory with the use of ftp. Very easy to
use, very lightweight, excellent. Thank you
