Upload and Insert Images inline without Image Manager

[Gary Choy]

Hello,

I was wondering if there's a quick way to bypass Image Manager to upload and insert images into the editor?

Basically we need:

- Upload button right on Toolbar of Editor instead of inside the Image Manager

- That button opens the "Upload dialog" as normal but limit user to upload 1 file only if possible

- Uploads to location set in "UploadPaths" directory

- Once clicked "Upload" button in Upload dialog; it will automatically Insert also as if you pressed "Insert" in Image Manager.

- Then puts Image inline with text in Editor.

I can't seem to find how ImageManager.ascx access the upload dialog so I can't change it to work this way.  I appreciate any help on this.

Thanks.

Gary

Hi Gary,

In order to achieve such functionality you need to create and register custom dialog - RadEditor's  API allows you to that. You can find information regarding custom dialogs in the following articles:
Add Custom Dialogs
Editor / Custom Dialogs

For your convenience I have attached a sample project for you to check it out.
