I am considering Discourse for a small, private community where file sharing might be required. I know people can attach a file, but it there any Library function that groups files together? Either inherently or as a plugin or integration with an outside thing (Dropbox, Google Drive) Thanks, Rob.

It’d be best to set up those areas in a dedicated file sharing site, then provide links to them. Discourse just isn’t built with the idea of being a file sharing tool as a primary use case.

It seems to work for images only, but something like this might be related to your request
