Document Library
In addition to allowing each member to upload documents, documents should be shared centrally via a library similar to that of videos and photos. If you know how, let me know at your earliest convenience. Thanks.
I’m Hopeful .....

Yeah this would be a huge asset to the product and I'd have to think that a Word doc of PDf would be boat loads smaller than a video file. I think part of the problem is that we're dealing with a "social" network and sometimes they miss out on the fact that professionals have needs in this arena too

Inappropriate?I keep getting asked about this from my site members too. I've seen some networks use Google Docs, so maybe that is worth a try.

Inappropriate?We use box.net - you can set up a tab on your Ning Network, and include the embedded code for your box.net account on the page - this will give your users easy access to the documents you have stored at box.net.
I’m happy

Inappropriate?Hi There,
I have implemented a file sharing solution for a customer using Zoho Creator.
Basically, an upload form was created and a corresponding stateless form and search box was made so that network users could upload and find materials.

Inappropriate?There's a Zoho OpenSocial gadget that people can place on their profiles.1 Comment Add a comment

Inappropriate?The ideal solution is some sort of search enabled document library. The problems with Box.net is the cost, if we have a lot of people in our community they'd all need accounts. The solution should be transparent. After all they are doing it for the Video, this is just another (simpler and smaller) file

Inappropriate?drop.io could be a solution, but I they don't seem to have search, or a good way to embed a list of all available files

Inappropriate?why doesn't ning just add this feature?

Inappropriate?In the meantime, have you considered setting up a Note page, Forum category, or Group and calling it Document Library? Not perfect, but we have the option to upload documents now, just as we do photos and links, so members can contribute documents in a central locale; if they ad keywords, they can be found by site search.
