Thanks you for your answer.

But i know this blog, and i used this.

With this provider, we can see the arborescence of the site but no the sub site.

For Exemple :

I create my site "mySite" => "mySite" have 2 subsites => SubSite 1 and SubSite 2 and the 2 SubsSites have 2 doclibraries.

I want that the fileExplorer diplays my 2subsites when i define the rootPath on "mySite".


How can do this ?

Hello,

The content provider for the RadFileExplorer works with only with libraries. It does not allow you to browse to sites and subsites directly. All of the paths you specify for the ViewPaths must be libraries in the current site collection. If you want to show sites and subsites, you need to change the content provider source that comes with the SharePoint project in the mentioned blog. For more information about the code in a custom content provider, see the file explorer documentation - http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/radfileexplorer-custom-filebrowsercontentprovider.html

Kind regards,

pimpo, you can do this, but you have to create the DirectoryItem objects yourself.  Here's how I did it:

First, I set my root path:

string[] paths = { SPContext.Current.Site.RootWeb.Url };
fileExplorer.Configuration.ViewPaths = paths;

Then, in my custom FileBrowserContentProvider I create directories from the urls.  After that, everything is very similar to Stoyan's blog, but you just have to add on that extra level of SPWeb DirectoryItem objects.

private static DirectoryItem CreateSPDirectoryItem(string absoluteUrl, bool isRecurseForWebs, bool isFilterFiles)
{
    DirectoryItem di = CreateEmptyDirectoryItem();
    SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(delegate()
    {
        // process site
        using (SPSite siteClxn = new SPSite(absoluteUrl))
        {
            using (SPWeb web = siteClxn.OpenWeb())
            {
                if (IsPathWebAbsUrl(absoluteUrl, web)) // this is a website
                    di = CreateSPWebDirectoryItem(web, absoluteUrl, isRecurseForWebs, isFilterFiles);
                else // this is a lib/folder
                    di = CreateSPFolderDirectoryItem(web, absoluteUrl, true, isFilterFiles);
            }
        }
    });
    return di;
}

It's been a while since I wrote this, so maybe you don't need all the parameters for your solution, but you get the idea.
