How to Install FileShare With CentOS and WordPress
The WP Client File Share plug-in for WordPress extends WordPress with private file-sharing pages. Each user account with file-sharing permissions you create has their own file-sharing page where they can upload files to and download them from. Administrators can also upload files to and download them from these private pages. You can install the plug-in on CentOS Linux or any other operating system WordPress supports using the dashboard. You can also install the plug-in by placing it directly in the WordPress plug-ins folder on your CentOS file system.
