Hello, I'm curious if Mirrorsync and Supercontainers play well together?

 

Yes, the do work well together, although what you get is very different than using regular container fields - see our docs for more info:

Thanks for the reply! I missed that tidbit somehow. I do have another question, Could I take pictures with my synced file on an iPad while I'm offline and have it still upload to the server when I go back online?

 

P.s. Really enjoying what little of the portfolio that I've utilized so far.

You could do this using a mixture of container fields with SuperContainer. Capture the picture into a regular container field while offline, use MirrorSync to sync that with the server, and then run a nightly server-side script that uses the SuperContainer companion plugin in a script to transfer that container field to SuperContainer.

Cool beans! That will work for me. Thanks again for your help.

that wont sync back to the ipad though correct? if I can run a script to put the image from a container into a super container, could I technically do it backwards? Run a script that grabs things people have uploaded via IWP to a Supercontainer and copy it to a standard container? This should in theory let me then sync the images back to the ipad.

Sorry for the slow response, just catching up from vacation.

 

The SuperContainer companion plugin can push as well as pull:

 

SCGetContainer - this will move a file from SuperContainer to a regular container field

SCSetContainer - this will move a file from a regular container field to SuperContainer

 

So SCGetContainer will do what you want.
