Configure RadFileExplorer on the Server

For convenience the subcontrols of RadFileExplorer (RadMenu, RadUpload, etc.) are exposed so developers could change their look or behavior, however the configuration of the RadFileExplorer itself is done in RadFileExplorer.Configuration.

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    string[] paths = new string[] { "~/" };
    // This code sets RadFileExplorer's paths
    RadFileExplorer1.Configuration.ViewPaths = paths;
    RadFileExplorer1.Configuration.UploadPaths = paths;
    RadFileExplorer1.Configuration.DeletePaths = paths;

    // Sets Max file size
    RadFileExplorer1.Configuration.MaxUploadFileSize = 10485760;

    // Enables Paging on the Grid
    RadFileExplorer1.AllowPaging = true;
    // Sets the page size
    RadFileExplorer1.PageSize = 20;

    //Load the default FileSystemContentProvider
    RadFileExplorer1.Configuration.ContentProviderTypeName = 
        typeof(Telerik.Web.UI.Widgets.FileSystemContentProvider).AssemblyQualifiedName;
}
Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
    Dim paths As String() = New String() {"~/"}
    'This code sets RadFileExplorer's paths
    RadFileExplorer1.Configuration.ViewPaths = paths
    RadFileExplorer1.Configuration.UploadPaths = paths
    RadFileExplorer1.Configuration.DeletePaths = paths

    'Sets Max file size
    RadFileExplorer1.Configuration.MaxUploadFileSize = 10485760

    ' Enables Paging on the Grid
    RadFileExplorer1.AllowPaging = True
    ' Sets the page size
    RadFileExplorer1.PageSize = 20

    'Load the default FileSystemContentProvider
    RadFileExplorer1.Configuration.ContentProviderTypeName = 
        GetType(Telerik.Web.UI.Widgets.FileSystemContentProvider).AssemblyQualifiedName

End Sub
