Hi Jeff very clear thanks!
I could make a script that have in output some contents and render them in a Share's page.
I'd like to have a box that points to speciic folders of the repository. If i click on a folder i will see the files inside and if i click on a file it will open in the classical page with metadata.
Is it possible to do this?!
