Hello,
One of our customers reported that they are trying to enhance the security features for file uploads in RadFileExplorer, Document Manager, and Image Manager. Specifically, for SVG files, they want to inspect the file contents for any embedded JavaScript functions. If the file is deemed unsafe, the upload should fail, and an error message should be displayed to the end user.
We have implemented the necessary backend validation and are able to throw an error message. However, we have not found a way to display this error message in the UI. Is there a recommended approach for implementing error message display in this scenario?
Thanks,
Lan

In my Standalone Image manager I encounter the following: When using StandAlone.AdditionalQueryString = "&PreselectedItemUrl=xxxxxxxx" in combination with File Explorer paging the correct image is not selected. Is there any workaround for this?
Thanks,

Hi,
I'm using RadFileExplorer in a project that includes file version control. Occasionally, when attempting to save a new version of a file, I receive the alert:
"A file with a name same as the target already exists!"
This issue seems inconsistent — it doesn't appear limited to a specific file type, but I've noticed it more frequently with image files or files that have numbers in their names.
I came across a possible solution in this File Explorer as a Version Control issues. in UI for ASP.NET AJAX | Telerik Forums, where it was suggested to modify the GetFIle method to always return null. Here's the method :
{
string virtualPath = RemoveProtocolNameAndServerName(url);
string physicalPath = this.GetPhysicalFromVirtualPath(virtualPath);
if (physicalPath == null)
return null;
if (!File.Exists(physicalPath))
{
return null;
}
return File.OpenRead(physicalPath);
}
if it is okay to overriding this method to always return null? Is it a safe and recommended approach to prevent the "file already exists" error in version control scenarios?

I'm trying to add a alert inside the FileStore method in Telerik's File Explorer, but it's not working as expected. Here's my implementation:
public override string StoreFile(UploadedFile file, string path, string name, params string[] arguments)
{
string physicalPath = this.GetPhysicalFromVirtualPath(path);
if (physicalPath == null)
return string.Empty;
Directory.CreateDirectory(physicalPath);
// sanitize the file name
name = (name.Replace(" ", "_")).Replace("'", string.Empty);
physicalPath = PathHelper.AddEndingSlash(physicalPath, '\\') + name;
string fileName = Path.GetFileName(physicalPath);
string folderPath = Path.GetDirectoryName(physicalPath);
FileStorageManager fileStorageManager = new FileStorageManager();
FileStorageInformation fileInfo = fileStorageManager.GetFileByFolderAndFileName(_applicationID, folderPath, fileName);
string fileFolderRelativeToRoot = path;
string rootToThisContext = path;
string message = null;
if (File.Exists(physicalPath))
{
bool isVersioningDisabledOnDestination = false;
UploadingHandler uploadingHandler = new UploadingHandler();
uploadingHandler.ExecuteAction(fileInfo, fileName, fileFolderRelativeToRoot, rootToThisContext, _applicationID, _formID, _userID, ref isVersioningDisabledOnDestination);
if (isVersioningDisabledOnDestination)
{
message = string.Format("Can not upload - versioning not enabled on target folder");
}
}
if(message == null)
{
file.SaveAs(physicalPath);
return PathHelper.AddEndingSlash(path, '/') + name;
}
else
{
return message;
}
}
public override string StoreFile(UploadedFile file, string path, string name, params string[] arguments)
{
string physicalPath = this.GetPhysicalFromVirtualPath(path);
if (physicalPath == null)
return string.Empty;
Directory.CreateDirectory(physicalPath);
// sanitize the file name
name = (name.Replace(" ", "_")).Replace("'", string.Empty);
physicalPath = PathHelper.AddEndingSlash(physicalPath, '\\') + name;
string fileName = Path.GetFileName(physicalPath);
string folderPath = Path.GetDirectoryName(physicalPath);
FileStorageManager fileStorageManager = new FileStorageManager();
FileStorageInformation fileInfo = fileStorageManager.GetFileByFolderAndFileName(_applicationID, folderPath, fileName);
string fileFolderRelativeToRoot = path;
string rootToThisContext = path;
string message = null;
if (File.Exists(physicalPath))
{
bool isVersioningDisabledOnDestination = false;
UploadingHandler uploadingHandler = new UploadingHandler();
uploadingHandler.ExecuteAction(fileInfo, fileName, fileFolderRelativeToRoot, rootToThisContext, _applicationID, _formID, _userID, ref isVersioningDisabledOnDestination);
if (isVersioningDisabledOnDestination)
{
message = string.Format("Can not upload - versioning not enabled on target folder");
}
}
if(message == null)
{
file.SaveAs(physicalPath);
return PathHelper.AddEndingSlash(path, '/') + name;
}
else
{
return message;
}
}

Please, contact the administrator." in my production environment. It is happening randomly.
Thanks.

I am able to drag and drop a message from old Outlook into Telerik File Explorer, but I can not do that in new Outlook. I am not sure if Telerik File Explore support that. And does Telerik File Explore support copy paste out look messages.

When I try to open a file I'd like to be able to click on a link to an Excel file and have it open directly in Excel on my computer, without any intermediate popup windows. Is this possible? or download to local?
