Thread: Admin Editor - Image Manager v9

There have been a few posts about how to set the Admin editor (RadEditor) image manager default folder. e.g. http://forums.aspdotnetstorefront.co...ad.php?t=20831

However, it looks like the implementation has changed in version 9. There's no longer a folder: /RadControls/Editor/ and image paths are specified in many files including: \Admin\topics.aspx (see below).

Has anybody figured out how to setup the image manager in version 9? Currently it displays no folders/files.

Thanks!

HTML Code:

<tcontrol:RadEditor runat="server" RadControlsDir="rad" id="radDescription">
<ImageManager UploadPaths="~/Images" ViewPaths="~/Images" DeletePaths="~/Images" />
<DocumentManager UploadPaths="~/Images" ViewPaths="~/Images" DeletePaths="~/Images" />
<FlashManager UploadPaths="~/Images" ViewPaths="~/Images" DeletePaths="~/Images" />
<MediaManager UploadPaths="~/Images" ViewPaths="~/Images" DeletePaths="~/Images" />
<SilverlightManager UploadPaths="~/Images" ViewPaths="~/Images" DeletePaths="~/Images" />
<TemplateManager UploadPaths="~/Images" ViewPaths="~/Images" DeletePaths="~/Images" />
</tcontrol:RadEditor>

Version: 9.0.1.3

We did away with the RadControls method of managing the editor as Telerik has deprecated that functionality. The editor is now added to pages as a control, as in the code you posted. To add other folders, just add them to the paths specified there. For example, to add the StringResources folder:

Code:

<telerik:radeditor id="radDescription" runat="server" editable="true">
<ImageManager UploadPaths="~/StringResources, ~/Images" ViewPaths="~/StringResources, ~/Images" DeletePaths="~/StringResources, ~/Images" />
<DocumentManager UploadPaths="~/Images" ViewPaths="~/Images" DeletePaths="~/Images" />
<FlashManager UploadPaths="~/Images" ViewPaths="~/Images" DeletePaths="~/Images" />
<MediaManager UploadPaths="~/Images" ViewPaths="~/Images" DeletePaths="~/Images" />
<SilverlightManager UploadPaths="~/Images" ViewPaths="~/Images" DeletePaths="~/Images" />
<TemplateManager UploadPaths="~/Images" ViewPaths="~/Images" DeletePaths="~/Images" />

Note that you'll need to give the .NET user account (usually ASPNET or NETWORK SERVICES) read/write/modify access to whatever folder(s) you specify as well.

The paths look correct (we don't need to change them). However, when we click the image manager button in the admin editor no files/folders are displayed.

Has anybody got this to work?

Thanks!

Do you have a screen shoot we can take a look? I don't see that behavior here?

We did some additional poking around and noticed that it's IE8 that has the issue. Firefox and IE7 seem to work ok.

In IE8 we get a javascript error when clicking on the Image Manager button. Both the javascript error and the Image Manager can be seen in the attached image.

Thanks!

Does anybody find a solution to ie8 telerik issue posted by valentim ??

I am having the same isue and dint´t find any solution at Forum jet...

Any updates on this???

I am having this issue only in IE8 it works if you set the browser to compatabilty mode, but this is not ideal!!

For the moment you'll need to use compatibility mode or use another browser. Telerik's RAD editor has quite a few issues with IE8 (not all of their doing, IE8 has some serious JS issues) so there's not much we can do until they get those cleared up.
