Is there any way for Kentico Media Library application to search the sub folders of selected folder?
Files copied from FTP need to be "imported" into Kentico. If they were separated by folders/sub folders, you have to go to every single folder and "import" that folder's files.
I should not have to use Kentico API to do this simple task.
I am afraid but the search is looking into the current folder only. You can send a request to productmanagement#kentico.com as a feature request.
For the import - I see your point but there could be also the opposite need - what if someone wants to import only certain files from certain folder(s). It is the same as if you would upload the files through the UI - you need to do it per folder. But I hear what you are saying maybe there could be some setting for this. Again, you can send the feature request directly to the product managers.

I have created templates for a company's website that I am working on. I have three different folder each folder containing different styles. I am trying to find a tool where I can put the files on, and then send a link or whatever to my client so that he can see the templates that I have created. Is there any tool out there where I can do this..? Besides a flashdrive...
Try Dropbox. You can either create a folder and "share" it, or just send a link via email to the folder to the client.
Can you copy a Composite C1 website? I would like to create a copy of an existing website as a new website.
I start by creating Site A. Then I want to copy it and create Site B.
For example: copy the pages, functions, data, content, layouts, css from website A to website B. The only difference between the two would be the name.
It would infringe copywrites and may get you sued, but yes, its possible with a scraper, which basicly get all of the site, and download it to you, such things are used by google and search engines for a cache of sites.
Some exaples:

or just google "web scrapers"
If you own the site however, and have access to the ftp, just simply copy the files to a folder called /b and it can become www.a.com/b or you can set up an addon domain to point to /b and make the addon domain.... say www.b.com
The answer to your question "can you copy a website?"
Is Yes....you can.
Provided you have access to all the files/folders, its no different then copying a bunch of folders on your computer, to another folder.
So if you're using a shared host....and everything is in your public_html folder.
Just put the whole website in one folder, then copy it over to another folder.
And then just simply point your new domain to that folder, through your hosting platform.
The process to do this is different for different hosts, but the actual answer to your question is...
YES....YOU CAN COPY A WEBSITE FROM ONE FOLDER TO ANOTHER
IF you have access to the files on the server you can simply copy it to the other desired location...
But remember you have to update links and other paths (if they are absolute).
If you don't have the access you could maybe use the developer tools like firebug, or using F12 on chrome or IE and copy each file and source code you have by hand. This approach is a little more time consuming than the last one but at least it can be made.

As far as I know the easiest way would be use use Internet Explorers save to offline webpage function (if it is still there) - this will copy all the resources of the currently open webpage and recode the HTML to use them, as for an entire website..I dont think it will be easy, for legal reasons.
If it's your own site, sure why not! Who is there to stop you?
But if it's someone elses site, of course you have to worry about copyright and most of the time the website uses server side scripts which are not downloabeable.
You can duplicate a Composite C1 website by copying the entire file structure to a new folder and then update the installation id in the folder ~/App_Data/Composite/Configuration/InstallationInformation.xml (put in a new random GUID). Then point a new IIS site into this new folder.
If your site is using SQL Server as a backend you also need to create a copy of your database, create a new user account with dbo access for this database and update the connection string in ~/web.config.
If you wish to duplicate an entire page structure inside the existing instance of the CMS and share media files, templates etc. this could be done, but no tooling is available. This would be a coding task.
Copy the the directory(website physical path) where the website is pointing to and paste it somewhere...create a new website and point it to that copied directory....
I've spent several hours trying to figure this out; hopefully, it's an easy solution and the difficulty is simply because I'm brand new to Orchard CMS and no where near an expert web developer...
I've created a Products Download page and need to insert hyperlinks to files that exist on the file system.
the path to the file (on disk) is : c:\Orchard CMS\Downloads\ProductOne\File1.zip
in the page editor, I insert a hyperlink reference with the following URL: /Downloads/ProductOne/File1.zip
When I hover over the hyperlink, it looks correct: http://localhost:12345/Downloads/ProductOne/File1.zip
However, when I click the link, I receive the following exception:
HTTP 404. The resource you are looking for (or one of its dependencies) could have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable. Please review the following URL and make sure that it is spelled correctly.
Any help would be extremely appreciated!
If you don't want to play with source code and web.config files you should use Orchard Media feature. It allows you to upload files into Orchard filesystem and manage those. Links to files uploaded this way look like http://www.myorchardsite.com/Media/[Media folder path]/YourFile.zip
If you are not an experienced developer, I'd strongly advise you to take this approach. The only drawback is that you'd have to reupload those files into Orchard. But this is not as bad as it looks - you can zip them and upload as a single file (Orchard will take care of unpacking the archive if you check the checkbox below upload field).
You need a web.config file that allows the files to be served. You can use one from one of the content directories that can be found in modules or themes.
I'm looking for a way to localize SharePoint 2010 Folder Names, for a specific application.
I've seen that site names/description are automatically translated, and it seems like SharePoint 2010 supports "multilingual" fields for metadata - but I haven't been able to apply this successfully for folder names.
The folders are automatically generated, and the number of folder is limited (so I'm not looking at providing the users a way to translate their folder names, but a way to localize a predefined folder structure).
In a nutshell :
- is there a way to localize folder names ?
- if yes, is what's the best way to deploy this as part of a solution ?
Have you considered how Managed Metadata might be able to help you with this? If you're able to control terms that are also localized in Taxonomy, perhaps when creating a folder you would pull from the Managed Metadata Store, and then display the appropriate language based on the user's language setting. Just a thought... Since you know the name of the folder ahead of time, you could use that as a label for a folder name term, and then pull another label that matches the user's language and display that.
You can start using a resource files in your project and this link can help you about it.
But if you want to let the user, who creates a folder to set its localized name; then you should consider using SP event receivers.
I hope I've understood you correctly.
I have a requirement wherein I have to obtain all the files of a web recursively (i.e. traversing through the folders and sub folders) and display them for the user through SP Object Model.
This has to be security trimmed, in the sense, if the user doesn't have sufficient privileges to view or open the file, then that file shouldn't be taken into account. Is it possible to obtain all the files without looping through each and every document library, folders and sub folders?
Also, I don't want the default document libraries like web part gallery, master page gallery,etc to be listed out. Any insights on how to achieve this?
The Content Query Web Part can get you most of the way there. Out-of-the-box you could set this up to show all files (based on a content type or content type category) from a site collection. You could even filter to remove system files although that might be a little tricky to get the filters right.
If that doesn't get you far enough, then you could write a web part that extends the Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.WebControls.ContentByQueryWebPart class. You could override the Filters (by setting the FilterField1, FilterType1, FilterOperator1, FilterValue1, etc).
The security trimming should happen for you by the default behavior of the ContentQueryWebPart. The Web Part and Master Page galleries will get filtered out based on your content type settings so you shouldn't have to worry about those.
