Hi,
I am a newbie to eZPublish. I am trying to automate a workflow, which will get initiated automatically when a user tries to upload a file inside eZPublish content structure. Is it possible to implement this?
Operating System:Fedora Linux 9PHP Version: 5.2.9

Hi, You could hook your workflow event to the content-publish-after. So it will be executed when e.g file or image object is created. That should also work with extension such as ezmultiupload and other extensions which use eZContentUpload class. Old tutorial http://ez.no/ezpublish/documentation/development/extensions/workflow_events which should give you some ideas. As a start point you might use RAD tool from eZ Publish Setup section in the administration interface.

Hi, I was able to trigger workflow event after file or image creation and it also followed an approval process.But i would require a trigger to a workflow when I upload files using webdav or ftp.Also deploy those files to an another shared file directory.Are there any default deployment scripts in eZ Publish?
