Limit number of files that can be uploaded

[Clive Hoggar]

Hi

The Upload function of RadEditor Image Manager is a great convenience feature for developers, but I would like to simplify the upload dialog a little for my inexperienced users by showing a single select box in the first instance, instead of the three that show by default. How can I best do this?

There doesn't seem to be a property of the image manager for this.

Thanks

Clive

Hello,

You can see how to implement this feature in this KB article: Displaying single upload control in the FileBrowser Upload manager.

Hi

Thanks for this, which works as expected.  

It would be nice to remove the 'Remove' link and the 'Add' button, so keep the UI as simple as possible.
Is it possible to do this also?

Thanks

Clive

Hi Clive,

Yes, after getting a reference to the Upload control () you can set the rfe.Upload.ControlObjectsVisibility enum property and display only the desired buttons of RadUpload. You can find more information in this help article: Configure the UI of RadUpload.

Hi Rumen

Thanks - That's perfect! So for reference of anyone else, I added a line into the ascx user control shown in the article Displaying single upload control in the FileBrowser Upload manager that you referenced, as below.

Thanks a lot
