Hi,
  I'm using the RadEditor control to allow users to create emails on our website. The website is posted on a webserver, however I want the users to be able to upload images from their own pc's is this possible to do.

My settings are
  <telerik:RadEditor ID="RadEditor1" runat="server">
                <ImageManager UploadPaths="~\images" ViewPaths="~\images" />
                <Content>
</Content>
            </telerik:RadEditor>


Regards

Robert Smith

Hi Robert,

You should correct the paths inside the ImageManager tag by replacing the backslash \ symbols with slash / symbols, e.g.

<telerik:RadEditor ID="RadEditor1" runat="server">
                <ImageManager UploadPaths="~/images" ViewPaths="~/images" />
  </telerik:RadEditor>

After that create a folder in the root of the web site named images. When you do this your users will be able to upload images in the Images folder on your server through the Image manager's Upload dialog.

You can test the upload feature online in this live demo: File Managers.

Please, note that it is not possible to automatically upload images pasted from local hard disk in the content area in RadEditor, because JavaScript does not have access to the local file system of the clients machine. That is why the end user should upload firstly the image via the Image manager and after that he / she will be able to insert it in RadEditor.


Kind regards,
