[Solved] Image Manager File Uploader Change Files of Type

[Angela]

Hi,

How do you change the files of type available upon clicking the Browse button in the FileUploader.ascx dialog? I only want to limit it with the file extensions allowed to be uploaded. I hope you can help me out here.

Thanks

Hello Angela,

I am not quite sure whether you want to customize the "browse" or the "upload" dialogs, so I have attached screenshots of both dialogs.

If you want to restrict the types of the files that can be uploaded, you can do that by setting the SearchPatterns property :

<telerik:radeditor runat="server" ID="RadEditor1">
    <ImageManager
        UploadPaths="~/images"
        ViewPaths="~/images"
        DeletePaths="~/images"
        SearchPatterns="*.gif,*.png" />
</telerik:radeditor>

If you want to change the file types that can be viewed in the "browse" dialog, however, this is not possible because it is a standard MS Windows dialog.

I hope this information helps.


Sincerely yours,
