Hi all.
I have seen a few ppl having made hg accounts, so that they can upload runlogs, and then link to them for all to see.
I have no clue how this works or where to find it.
I could use some guidence from a person, that have created such a account.
if I need Admin help in any sort, please let me know in a PM.
Thank you all in advance.
sincerely
Herc

There are various way to do that. I use Dropbox but you could also use Ubuntu One if you use Linux. There are also other projects offering web space, but these two are the ones that came to my mind right now. Installation is usually pretty simply. For Dropbox you just install a client, create an account and select a folder on your PC that will be synchronized. Every file you put in there will be uploaded to the Dropbox web folder, you can get a URL for that file and use that to upload links to this forum. |

Thank you Vichya.
I already have Dropbox installed, but as far as I know, I´ll gert one link for every run I make.
my goal was to have one place to store it, and then anyone can click on that link, and browse the selected link from there.
Is there a way to attend this in dropbox too?

Yes, if you get the public URL to a Dropbox file, just remove the file name from it and the user who uses that URL will see a list of files in that folder if I recall correctly.

I just checked it and it appears this isn't working. You could still upload an HTML file containing the dropbox links to every run log, but that requires you to update the HTML often. Or maybe there's another solution for your problem that I don't know of.

Setting up an "hg account" is rather easy: Just look for a free web host and set an account up with them where you can upload HG-related stuff. The only 2 things you need to watch out for are that many of these places require that you at least log into their forums every once in a while (some of them require that you post there every week or 2 to prove you're active), and that they also require that anything you post on the account be accessible, somehow, from the front page.
