I’m using Mark Huot’s File extension, but it requires associating a file with a page.

I’d like a generic file manager that allows the user to upload files without them being associated with a page. Is there something I can add to allow this?

this is builtin to EE 2 - from the admin menu,

Content > File Manager

Then you could add a file custome field to your Content and link to files from in there.

Funny thing is, there’s a file manager built into EE - near the top right of the page entry screen. I didn’t notice it before because I never needed it.
