Finding the URL of a file through Claymore File Manager

There are several reasons you may wish to know the URL of a file you have uploaded through the Claymore File Manager, for example, to include a link to download your latest restaurant menu in an email.

This is now possible by following the process below:
  1. Login to The Claymore Project and select Upload Images & Files > File Manager from the Admin Menu



  2. In the File Manager popup locate the file you wish to get the URL for



  3. Double click the file - this closes the File Manager popup and shows the file URL in the Help Alert



  4. You must close the Alert box if you plan to open the File Manager again to get another URL
