Hi
I need to share a lot of images  in posts and i wanna way to share it easily,
is there a way to show full content of a folder on my hosting account?
is there a way to use some script that allow my to upload a complete folder?

Thanks for your help

Your best option would be to use a third-party gallery script such as Gallery2 or Coppermine. SMF isn't designed for such things.

Thats should do it for the images thanks,
But what about videos or any other files?

If it's just you uploading, you can use a FTP client to upload any contents you want to any location you like on your host and then give link to that folder.  You might want to turn off any non-indexing .htaccess restrictions.  Then people will be able to see the whole contents of that folder.  I would limit it to just selected folders.

If you want others then it's a single upload via the attachment option in SMF.  But I'd suggest YouTube and embed video mod to handle videos.  For files I'm not sure of any volume online storage sites.
