Adding FTP Upload Files for OpenCart

The FTP Upload File Adding module automates the management of uploaded files in the store's admin area and significantly simplifies digital catalog management. When you open the upload list, the system automatically checks the file folder, finds suitable extensions, and adds new entries without manual entry. This is especially convenient if you frequently post products with downloadable files.

What is the module for?

The solution eliminates routine manager actions and reduces the risk of missing files. Instead of manually creating each download, the module automatically grabs new elements from the download directory, prepares the data, and writes it to the database.

Important: The check is performed automatically when accessing the method for obtaining the list of downloads, so new files appear in the admin panel without additional script execution.
