Upload Template within Template

[Ashleigh L]

I've got an existing page that's created using a Kendo template. I need to add one or more upload widgets to this page (dynamic, based on page contents). I see that it's possible to template the upload widget (http://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/upload/templates), but I'm not sure how or if that will work inside my existing template. Can you point me towards documentation, or even better, an example of how to implement nested templates (if possible), specifically upload templates?

Hello shimmoril,

In this case the standard rules for nesting Kendo UI templates apply. You could find them on the following documentation page. Generally if there is a hash symbol, which is part of a binding expression in nested template, it should be escaped, so that it is not evaluated by the outer template.

I've never used nested templates before, which is why I posted this question. Your link doesn't have any information on the nesting specifically, which is what I was after.

​FYI I've attempted to nest an upload template, but I get a JQuery error when clicking the Select Files button. The error doesn't occur if the template isn't used.

Hello shimmoril,

If the issue is persisting, please send us an isolated runnable example demonstrating it, so we could inspect it locally and provide assistance.

Thanks Dimiter. At this point we're going to skip the template due to time constraints, but I'll keep it in mind if we circle back to it in the future.
