Publish files online with joomla for download

Question

I would like to publish some files to be downloaded through my joomla-made site, but I can`t find the tool to do it. How can I achieve this? Any help?

Answer 1

There is two Joomla components that you can use to publish files with:

1. Phoca Download
2. Remository

I have tried both and prefer Phoca Download, but you may come to a different conclusion.

Answer 2

there is another option. i found a nifty extension that alows you to attach files to your articles.

Attachments for content articles

Answer 3

Another alternative is DocMan, which is quite a commonly used document management and download system for Joomla. I use it with the DocLink extension, which makes it easy to link to your files in DocMan from your Joomla article editor.
