I was wondering if there is any way to place entry messages for each directory. Say I want to display a message when a user enters my TV directory, but a different message when they enter PICTURES directory. Is there a way to do this?
It should in theory be possible.
I'd suggest looking at setting up dirname.txt and having the files read by the msg file on dir change using a cookie for dirname.
Not sure without researching it, but I'll let you do that
What about using the .ioFTPD.message files directly ? They're displayed when you enter the directory and you can make them read-only to be sure they won't be overwritten by a script.
