Added by Martin Borer over 17 years ago. Updated over 14 years ago.

Description
If you let "uploadfolder" empty in your TCA Settings. Like:
"movie" => Array (
"exclude" => 1,
"label" => "LLL:EXT:ext_collect/locallang_db.xml:tx_extcollect_movies.movie",
"config" => Array (
"type" => "group",
"internal_type" => "file",
"allowed" => "flv",
"max_size" => 500000,
"uploadfolder" => "",
"size" => 1,
"minitems" => 1,
"maxitems" => 1,
)
),
The selected File will not be copied. It stores only the absolute Path of the file (great!).
But after saving the record, the selector box shows the whole "long" path. The Filename isn't identifiable anymore. It would be great if the Filename apears insted of the "Upload" Fild, witch isn't used anymore.
This Feature is used by MailformPlus and some of my privat extensions... ;)

+1 ;)
But I prefer to do not store absolute path, but only fileadmin/mytemplate/news.html
Thank You

Could some please add a patch then? Thanks! ;-)

Uploaded a Patch: 6039.patch
If "uploadfolder" is emty, the Upload Field will be dropped and the stored path is relative to site root.
I'm not sure if the line:
$valueArray[$key] = substr($theFile, strpos($theFile, "fileadmin/"));
is a god solution... Is there a T3-Function for this issue?
Updated by Martin Borer over 16 years ago
PS: Adding references to selected files is missing in my patch!

Uploaded new patch: 6039_v2.patch
New:
- with file references support.
- replaced line
$valueArray[$key] = substr($theFile, strpos($theFile, "fileadmin/"));
with a better solution
Updated by Benni Mack over 16 years ago
Is this is a bug or a feature?
If it's a bug, please submit it to the core list so it can go to in the 4.2 release!
Updated by Benni Mack over 16 years ago
I also read through your patch (v2). Quite cool.
A couple of things to fix:
- Please create the patch located to the base directory of the SVN branch.
- Hunk #2: Please use curly braces around if statements
- Hunk #3: Curly braces here too would be nice. Also use single quotes : && $config['uploadfolder']!='')
- Hunk #5: could be written as
if (count($valueArray)) {
foreach ($valueArray as &$theFile) {
if (t3lib_div::isFirstPartOfStr($theFile,PATH_site)) {
$theFile = substr($theFile,strlen(PATH_site));
}
}
}

Uploaded new patch: 6039_v4_new_internal_type.patch
There are now 2 ways to have direct file references.
1st and better way
There is now a new internal_type for TCA->group called 'file_reference' it's almost a alias for 'file' with the difference that the option 'uploadfolder' is always ignored, so it's always a file reference.
2nd way (not so good)
internal_type 'file' with empty 'uploadfolder' Option. With this config the behavior is exactly the same like the internal_type 'file_reference'.
Updated by Martin Borer over 16 years ago
There is something missing in my patch!
Import data from a *.t3d file with TCA->group->internal_type 'file_reference' records or 'file' with empty 'uploadfolder' records is not working.
Import message (example):
[red]
fileadmin/user_upload/castTest/rechner.jpg, fileadmin/user_upload/castTest/verwaltung.jpg
[/red]
[green]
typo3temp/\imp9C.tmp, typo3temp/\imp9D.tmp
[/green]
which core files are responsible for import / export *.t3d ?

New patch: 6039_v5_with_impexp.patch
New with import / export support of group->file_reference fields.
Could someone of the core 'gurus' review this patch? ;)
There are still some minor flaws. The relative path for example, the path to the file is only identifiable if thumbnails are active for the file_reference field.

I took the version from the core list and updated it a bit. Only then I saw that you already made another here :( Please, inform core list next time if you do...
I attached my version 96039_v5.diff).

New patch: 6039_v6.diff
(Typo3 4.2-Branch Revision 4005)
Merged 6039_v5.diff from Dimitry with 6039_v5_with_impexp.patch.
I've made also a BUGFIX! In 6039_v5_with_impexp.patch, some lines were outside a foreach loop. (only last selected file was converted to a relative path.)
Please don't use 6039_v5_with_impexp.patch!

Updated by Stefan Galinski about 16 years ago
I have tested the latest patch and it works like expected. IMHO it's really an important patch to get rid of the endless copying stuff in TYPO3.
Updated by Stefan Galinski about 16 years ago
I have uploaded the file "typo3_fileIntegrityCheckWithSupportOfDirectReferences.patch" which is a followup of the last patch. It contains a workaround for the database<->file references functions. This one has always reported any direct references to fileadmin files in the "missing files" section. You can find the corresponding backend function here: DB Check->Database Relations.
BTW: It's just a workaround, because the whole code of the file must be refactored.

Any news?
BTW: The following two typoscript lines are important to render images of tt_content elements in the frontend (if css_styed_content is used).
tt_content.image.20.imgPath =
tt_content.textpic.20.imgPath < tt_content.image.20.imgPath
