[Solved] EditModes, MaxImagesSize, and ImagesFilters

[Michael Loffland]

I am using the RadEditorProvider (04.09.01) for Dotnetnuke (4.9) ...

I have the following in my web.config file in the providers section:

<add
name="RadEditorProvider"
type="Telerik.DNN.Providers.RadEditorProvider"
EditModes="Design,HTML"
ToolsFile="~/DesktopModules/TelerikWebUI/CNdefault.xml"
DialogHandlerUrl="~/DesktopModules/TelerikWebUI/RadEditorProvider/Telerik.Web.UI.DialogHandler.aspx"
ContentAreaCssFile="~/DesktopModules/TelerikWebUI/Custom.css"
providerPath="~/DesktopModules/TelerikWebUI"
AutoCreatePaths="true"
EnableUploadUserFolders="true"
ImagesPaths="ForumImages"
MaxImageSize="112000"
ImagesFilters="*.gif,*.png,*.jpg"
/>

The toolsfile, dialoghandlerurl, autocreatepaths, enableUploadUserFolders, and ImagesPaths are working as expected....

But MaxImageSize and ImagesFilters has no effect on the RadEditor when a user goes to upload an image file via the Image Manager... what am I missing?

Thanks!
Mike

Nor is the EditModes working... it just always shows all three modes... I don't want preview to show.

Hello Michael,

What I suggest you is, remove the EditModes="Design,HTML" attribute from the <add> element in the web.config and set it in the ConfigFile.xml, which is located in DesktopModules\TelerikWebUI\RadEditorProvider folder.
Just add the following code

<property name="EditModes">Design,HTML</property>

<configuration>
  <property name="Skin">Telerik</property>
  <property name="EditModes">Design,HTML</property>
  <property name="MaxImageSize">100000</property>
  <property name="ImagesFilters">*.gif,*.png,*.jpg</property>
</configuration>

Perfect... got EditModes and MaxFileSize to work by using configfile.xml.

But ImagesFilters is not working in the web.config file... or the configFile.xml.

Am I using the wrong attribute or something? Every time I go to upload an image via the Image Manager is gives the default file extensions allowed:

File extensions allowed

*.gif, *.xbm, *.xpm, *.png, *.ief, *.jpg, *.jpe, *.jpeg, *.tiff, *.tif, *.rgb, *.g3f, *.xwd, *.pict, *.ppm, *.pgm, *.pbm, *.pnm, *.bmp, *.ras, *.pcd, *.cgm, *.mil, *.cal, *.fif, *.dsf, *.cmx, *.wi, *.dwg, *.dxf, *.svf

This is what I have in my configFile.xml

<configuration>
  <property name="Skin">Telerik</property>
  <property name="EditModes">Design,HTML</property>
  <property name="MaxImageSize">100000</property>
  <property name="ImagesFilters">*.gif,*.png,*.jpg</property>
</configuration>

Figured it out....

Each file extension needs its own "item" tag.

<configuration>
  <property name="Skin">Telerik</property>
  <property name="EditModes">Design,HTML</property>
  <property name="MaxImageSize">100000</property>
  <property name="ImagesFilters">
    <item>*.jpg</item>
    <item>*.gif</item>
    <item>*.png</item>
    <item>*.bmp</item>
  </property>
</configuration>
