Usage ----- [](#usage) 1. Define `Member groups` exactly as the folder names were defined (e.g. member group `Group1`). 2. Assign this group to a member. 3. Create a directory below `files` directory named like your group (e.g. `files/Group1`). 4. Then copy any files to the directory and call `vendor/contao-console toteph42:filesync`. #### Disable notification [](#disable-notification) 1. Uncheck checkbox `Notify user about changes in file system` in member definition (default=true). #### Member configuration [](#member-configuration) If you want members to give the possibility to select whether they want notification or not in frontend: 1.

Create an `Article` and include the module you just created. #### Creating message to send [](#creating-message-to-send) Now you need to create a `Forms` with the name of the group (e.g. member group `Group1`). 1. Click on checkbox `Send form data via e-mail` in section **Send form data**. 2. Enter the `sender` address in field `Recipient address` (e.g.****). 3. Add your `Subject`. 4.
