Loading zone
The loading zone is a temporary location in the file system where files are stored before being uploaded into PageSeeder.
Loading zones are automatically created whenever a member intends to upload content into a PageSeeder group.
Why a loading zone
Having a temporary space to hold files to upload allows members to:
- Upload a whole collection of documents at once.
- Preserve and verify the integrity of the linking (cross-references) between files.
- Remove and manage the list and organization of files to upload.
- Set individual upload options for each file.
- Test import function and tweak the options.
For example, when importing a Microsoft Word (docx) document into PageSeeder as a PSML document, the loading zone allows members to select the best options for splitting the file.
