DocumentManager.SearchPatterns witin a .skin file

[Stewart Ellis]

I keep my radEditor configuration in a.skin file. I have tried to set the allowed file extensions in the skin file using this syntax:

<DocumentManager UploadPaths="~/Docs" ViewPaths="~/Docs" DeletePaths="~/Docs" MaxUploadFileSize="1100000" SearchPatterns="*.doc,*.txt,*.docx,*.xls,*.xlsx,*.pdf,*.zip"/>

It does not work. I use the radEditor in multiple locations within the site, so I do not want to set the searchPatterns for each instance. How can I achieve this?

Thanks

Hello Stewart Ellis,

You can use the following syntax in the skin file:

<telerik:RadEditor runat="server"  DocumentManager-SearchPatterns="*.doc,*.txt,*.docx,*.xls,*.xlsx,*.pdf,*.zip"></telerik:RadEditor> 

Kind regards,

I tried that however my situation is that I need to link to image files, instead of pdfs or word docs. I tried DocumentManager-SearchPatterns="*.doc,*.txt,*.docx,*.xls,*.xlsx,*.pdf,*.jpg,*.png,*.gif" but the image files don't appear in the document manager.

Thanks
Stewart

Hi Stewart,

The solution works fine for images too. You can see my test in the following video: http://screencast.com/t/fyRNFwgyuV.

Note that the Document Manager could not preview Image Files. You can preview them only in the Image Manager.
