as a part of posting multiple images to a website, i need to upload multiple images from frontend and all these images should be stored in umbraco backend..
sony: In that case, find a .net control that can upload multiple images, put it in a usercontrol and create a macro for that usercontrol in Umbraco. There's nothing stopping you to do it the "normal" .net way.
lol sorry, yes kipusoep is correct, at the Umbraco course last week I was drilled so much to always use the nodeFactory that I am confusing the two now.
uploading multiple images
hello folks.,
as a part of posting multiple images to a website, i need to upload multiple images from frontend and all these images should be stored in umbraco backend..
how it can be done in umbraco?
i would like to have pointers..
thank you..
You can use the gecko uploadify package to do this, use the macro to put it in your site's frontend.
Hi Sebastiaan ,thanks for your reply..
i would like to do without using packages
Why would you like to do this without using packages?

thanks for your patience folks,
@ kipusoep: i have my own structure thus i have limitation in using that package..
@sebastiaan :how would i store images at umbraco backend?i need images(uploaded from frontend of a website) to be in the nodes of umbraco ..
please let me know if i am not clear..
thank you
Something like:
var node = new Node(); node.getProperty("yourUploadFieldProperty").Value = Path_To_Uploaded_File;But be sure to check out the wiki /umbraco.tv for more information on how to create content.
I think 'sony' means creating the uploaded files as media items:

And if you want to assign a value to a node, use the Document api (node == read-only). Cultiv knows that, but I guess he forgot ;-)
