Click the Empty Recycle Bin button to purge any files that you have deleted
from your site.
Specify who can empty the Recycle Bin (thus permanently deleting files from
the site). By default all users can permanently delete files that they own or
have administrator permissions to. As a Site Administrator, you can specify if
all users, site administrators, or project administrators can permanently delete
files. If project members are restricted from emptying the Recycle Bin, then
deleting a file functions as a "soft" delete. That is, the file is sent to the Recycle
Bin where an Administrator can later delete it from the site.
Client Upgrade Management
This section enables you to specify the minimum version that you want site
members to use. This is useful if you do not want to require members to
upgrade to the latest version. If members are using a version that is older than
what you have specified as the minimum, then the next time they login to
the site they will be required to download the latest version. This may be a
more recent version than what you have specified. With this functionality
upgrading is only required if you set the Site Administrator's Required Version
to equal the latest version released by Autodesk.
Following is a description of the values in this section:
Current Version — the version that you are using. This refers only to you,
not to other site members.
Minimum Required Version — the minimum version that Autodesk
requires all site members to be using. This value is set by Autodesk and cannot
be changed by you. It is okay for members to use a more recent version than
what is required but not an older version.
Most Recent Version Available — the latest version available from
Autodesk. This version may not be the same as the Minimum Required Version.
For example, the minimum client version may be 7.0.10, but the most recent
version available is 7.1.25. Unless Autodesk has specified that you use 7.1.25,
upgrading is optional.
Your Site's Administrator Required Version — this is the minimum
version that you, as site administrator, require all site members to use. By
setting this value you can control whether members are required to upgrade
to the latest version. As long as you set this value to something less than the
most recent version, members do not have to upgrade. Or, you can require
all members to upgrade by setting this value to the latest released version.
