Files in X-Cart
X-Cart provides a repository where the store staff can keep files; for example, the files of downloadable products (like software or e-books). The store staff can view and manage the contents of this repository using X-Cart's built-in file manager.
In X-Cart GOLD, the files repository corresponds to the directory /xcart/files, where /xcart is X-Cart installation directory. This repository is a common file storage space accessible equally to all of the store users with administrator/provider privileges.
In X-Cart PRO, the files repository also corresponds to the directory /xcart/files; however, only users with unlimited administrator privileges have the ability to view and manage the contents of this repository in its entirety. For each of the store provider, a separate area is established within the repository beyond which they cannot access. This area corresponds to the directory /xcart/files/provider_login, where /xcart is X-Cart installation directory, and provider_login is the login name of the respective store provider.
