Hi Friends,
I have a simple question and would appreciate if someone can help.

Whenever I upload a file on my Plone instance, the link I get via email directly points to the file. Same thing happens when qPloneComments sends out the link when somebody posts a comment to that file e.g.:

View new comment added to the following page "Test File":
http://mysite/testfolder/test%20File%20Application%20-v1.4.pdf

This is causing a lot of trouble becuase people like to click that link to read the comment instead when they click, it opens the open/save file dialog box pops-up. I know this qPloneComments specific issue but I just gave that as an example and I have other cases as well where I need to see the file 'view'.

So, how can I make my Plone instance append /view to all outgoing URLs i.e.
http://mysite/testfolder/test%20File%20Application%20-v1.4.pdf/view

Here's my environment details:

Plone Version Overview

* Plone 3.1.2
* CMF 2.1.1
* Zope (Zope 2.10.6-final, python 2.4.4, win32)
* Python 2.4.4 (#71, Oct 18 2006, 08:34:43) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)]
* PIL 1.1.6

I would really appreciate if someone can help.
Thanks
Mick

Lots of people in US probably busy with family and events for the holiday weekend :-)

Check under portal_types for the file content type and look to see what the default template is.. I believe you have to append /view in that file.
