Image Gallery Path problems

Reply Quote

I have read other posts and have looked at the developer guide for setting the image gallery path. I was able to change the security policy files, but I can't figure out if I'm doing the VB part right for programmatically specifying the image gallery path. Am I supposed to add an attribute to the CE:Editor tag like most of the other settings are? Or am I supposed to add the "Editor1.Setting" piece into the code somewhere? Any help would be much appreciated.

igjoe,

Please try the following code:

SetUploadsFolder("~/Uploads/Member/")

Sub SetUploadsFolder(ByVal folder As String)
  Dim phyfolder As String = Server.MapPath(folder)
  'see security.config
  Editor1.Setting("security:ImageGalleryPath")=folder
  Editor1.Setting("security:MediaGalleryPath")=folder
  Editor1.Setting("security:FlashGalleryPath")=folder
  Editor1.Setting("security:FilesGalleryPath")=folder
End Sub

Demo:

Thank you very much for the response. I was able to get the image path to work locally, but I am having problems setting the image path to be a network location. Something like \\someserver\webshare\uploads\ Any ideas?

Or maybe I should be asking a different question. Could using a network path be the reason I am getting an error? If not I can start trying some other things for a solution.

Thanks to your help I was able to set UNC path successfully and can upload images to the desired location. When I upload or choose an image, the Insert URL shows: /marketing/Admin/imageUrl/fileName.jpg. The ImageUrl virtual directory is set up under the Admin folder. It is stripping out the server name but we would also like /marketing/Admin/ to not show up as the URL. Please advise.

ok, I'm pretty sure it works now. We have an admin and a public part of our site. On the public side I did a replace when viewed.

strContent = Replace(dr("pressrelease"), "/marketing/Admin/", "")

Is there a better way to strip out that part of the URL? If not this seems to work fine. Thanks again.
