Pointing to External Storage thru Club Web Site

3 years 3 weeks ago

HI, My name is Mayur Shah. (Club name: Premier Toastmasters,  Club # 918568, Club Web Site:  premiertoastmasters.org/ )

We are planning on storing our club recordings at a Google drive and potentially scale it to fit the member needs.
To offer our members a seamless experience while using the club web site, one thought was to simply create a members only page that brings them to the Google drive to find their recordings. But the other oprion I was curious about is IF it is possible to use our existing member downloads section (thru File Manager) to point to a folder that actually uses the space on this Google drive instead of club web site space! 
Appreciate any guidance if the 2nd option above is possible.

You will have to create a custom webpage with links to the Google drive. You could hide the FTH members download link and put link to everything on your custom download webpage.

Hi Brian,

Appreciate the confirmation about the custom web page approach.
As for the FTH membes downloads link, we still want to continue to use that space for non-video files. At our web site we already have several folders created within that FTH Members Downloads link to organize things for officers & members. However, I was curious whether it is possible to have ONE of the folders within FTH members downloads link point to Google drive instead of the FTH space allocated for our club?
