 * try adding the wtf_upload_dir attribute to both the upload and the show_files
   shortcodes.
 * these two should also be inside the workflow stage content content_area fields
 * e.g.
 * workflow 1 stage 0 content_area
    `[wtf_fu_upload wtf_upload_dir="demofiles"]`
 * workflow 1 stage 1 content_area
    `[wtf_fu_show_files wtf_upload_dir="demofiles"
   reorder=1]`
 * then in your page or post put
    `[wtf_fu id='1']`

 * thats ok, I think that shows I need to make the documentation a bit clearer on
   how to use things. Maybe a quick start guide would help here.
 * For archiving see the Manage Users tab.
    Click the user whose files you want 
   to archive then check any files or directories you want to archive and select
   archive from the bulk actions drop down listbox and then apply.
 * If you navigate back to the root of the users directory you will see a zip file
   hat has been created, you can then click that to download the zip file.

 * also archiving can be automated by added a pre- or port- action hook in a workflow
   stage to call a function to automate archiving when a user reaches a certain 
   stage.
 * you will need to write your own function to do this and add it to you functions.
   php or into a file in the mu-plugin dir. So a little php knowledge is required
   for this, there is an example file called
    wtf-fu_hooks_example.php in the examlpes
   directory if you want to follow this route and also check out the demo workflow
   which uses this function as a post hook in one of the later stages of the workflow
   to send email and archive files.

 * definately the documentation needs to be improved 🙂 ..
 * 1. Anyway the plugin is really really awesum but sumtyms it doesnt upload from
   mobile phone …
 * when i select add files on mobile it shows 0 bytes for the filesize and doesnt
   uploads it .. says error filesize too small … 🙁
 * 2. and is it possible to add url upload too in the plugin ? ?
    becoz after that
   ur plugin will become the best and the most prefect plugin and we dnt hav to 
   use any other plugin for url upload …
 * 3. there is one more problem … neither the admin nor the users are able to delete
   files in the public directorty through the delete button in plugin .. so is it
   possible to assign some users and admin to delete files from public directory
   too ? ? ..
 * 4 . is it possible for users to make archive on there own of whatever files they
   need?
 * thanx for ur support and i am a small kid who doesnt knows php 😀

 * and one more problem 😀
 * the audio controls in showfiles are really small … any way to make it bigger?

 * audio controls are a bit sqaushed in horizontal mode try
    using `[wtf_fu_show_files
   wtf_upload_dir="demofiles" vertical="1"]`
 * this will give one file per row and larger audio controls.
 * you are right about deleting from public directory currently only user files 
   can be accessed, I’ll add the public directory to the drop down user list in 
   the next release.
 * mobile upload should work may have been a flaky wi-fi connection so give it another
   try.
 * not sure what you mean by url upload ?
 * you shouldn’t have told me you were a small kid, I never would have guessed. 
   I’m not going to tell you my age 🙂
 * have fun !

 * url upload means remote upload …
 * just by inputting direct link from any other site to download data ….
 * and what about archiving files directly from the show files ?
 * and clicking on next and back button on mobile doesnt wrks

 * one more thing …
    if reorder is true then audio controls doesnt wrks … if i want
   to change volume or skip the song a little then the whole file is dragged for
   rearranging 🙁

 * upload only works for local files from your pc.
 * archiving is for admin access from back end not for users.
 * you will have to set the show_files attributes for your desired results.
    audio
   controls behave a bit differently on different browsers so you may want to turn
   off the audio controls if you want to reorder them although I believe that reorder
   and audio do work together on at least chrome and firefox. You can see the list
   of available [wtf_fu_show_files] attributes on the documentation tab.
 * back and next should work on mobile what phone and browser are you using and 
   do they always not work or just sometimes ?

 * No, file upload is achieved by using the browsers multipart form data to transfer
   local file data via your browser, you cannot put a url in to it, you will have
   to download the file from the url first to a local file then upload it.
 * I’ll test out the phone issue and get back to you on that one. I’m pretty sure
   it worked at least with chrome on android though, although I have not tested 
   extensively with other browsers.
