RE:Creating Document type Folder programatically

Hi,

This is described in our documentation. Please see: http://kentico.com/docs/devguide/creating_documents.htm. You need to change this example so that it works for your site. For example

TreeNode node = new TreeNode("cms.news", provider);

you will change to

TreeNode node = new TreeNode("cms.folder", provider);

To copy files from your shared folder on a disc you need to do similar process - you will create cms.file documents under your cms.folder. Then you assign properties to these files.

Best regards,
Vita Janecek

RE:Creating Document type Folder programatically

Hi, Vita,

I'm trying to create new folder and append to an existing one but no success...

 var node = GetCurrentUserFolderNode(alisPath, cultureFormat);//Node found!
 var folder = TreeNode.New("cms.folder");
                folder.DocumentName = folderName;
                folder.DocumentCulture="En-Us"
                node.Children.Add(folder);
                node.Update();

What's is wrong??

Thanks

Hi,

If I understand your issue correctly, in content tree you have a folder and you want to append another folder to it, so basically you want to create subfolder, is that correct?

In that case please see http://devnet.kentico.com/docs/devguide/index.html?documents_api_examples_creating_documents.htm. In aliasPath you will have to specify the current folder, also you will have to use CMS.Folder instead of CMS.MenuItem.
