Upload without deploying

in ottofms can there be an option to upload a file to server but NOT deploy?

Do you want to upload to the Database folder without opening the database, or just upload to anywhere on your system? I believe the file manager should accomplish either of these tasks for you

Good question…
Of course that works, was just in the FileMaker Server tab, closed one file, wanted to upload one I had been working on so used the upload button there.

Fewer clicks I guess.

When you do that from the client, you get the choice to open the file after uploading, so made sense to ask as that’s what \I was doing at the time. An of you do it in client when you have a file open that is a whole different experience too

Hey John,

We could expose the option to keep the files closed after the upload, that would be pretty simple. I’ll get it into our next version of OttoFMS.

Hey @john_r ,

OttoFMS version 4.7.1 now has a switch to prevent files from being opened after they are uploaded! Let me know if you have any issues with it going forward.
