Windows Folder SYNC with documents and media using WEBDEV

Business users do not want to login into Liferay and upload the documents in the Documents and media. One such option is using Webdev.

1)      Create a folder in Document and media say, I created the folder called “CAT”. Right click the folder and select “Access from Desktop”

2)      Note down the webDav URL

3)      Go to the Windows File Browser, Right Click and select “Add a network Location”.

4)      Specify the WebDav URL

5)      And enter the Login Credentails

6)      Mention a name for the new network folder and finish the drive creation

7)      Now the New network folder “locahost-webdev” Mapped to http://localhost:8080/webdav/guest/document_library/CAT.  If I drop a file in the folder , then Liferay will add the file in the “CAT” folder.
