Using contentment, I can choose Data Source as Umbraco Content (above Items) and list editor Checkbox List (but I don't want checkbox, I want Umbraco Media Picker instead of checkbox list).
Sorry, I'm not really understanding where the Data List editor comes into this. If you want to pick media, then use the Media Picker editor instead? What am I missing?
Yes, I saw your previous reply, but I'm still unsure what you're trying to achieve with the Data List editor, (my gut feeling is that it doesn't do what you're wanting it to do).
Yea right, currently it only support dropdown, checkbox and radio but missing other Umbraco controls. May be it might be cool to have more controls in the list. Thanks for you r help.
I'm wondering if you've tried the Item Picker list-editor? That'd give you a slide-out panel to select items from. But my confusion with your question is that it's not a Media Picker (e.g. it doesn't pick anything from media, only the configured data-source, i.e. Umbraco Content).
Which is why my original reply was...
Do you mean that you'd like a UI that is visually similar to the Media Picker style?
With Contentment, people have been creating their own custom list-editor UIs all the time. From the package's telemetry stats there have been over 50 custom UI.
Rather than having a list of media pickers , you could have 1 media picker picking multiple items..
obviously the problem is matching how many items to each media>>
I Love Lee's work , but i think this may not be the right tool for the job..
or i think you might be better using a baked into Umbraco block list .. which you can configure to allow add a row , and then add a media picker with a single image ,
Media Picker With Contentment DataList
I am trying to use Data List with Umbraco Content. I see the below list for editors,
How can I select Umbraco Media Picker editor here?
Hi Dawn,
I'm trying to understand what are you trying to achieve.

Hi Lee,
I am glad for your reply.
Let's say we have list of items in Umbraco like,
and we have separate nodes,
Using contentment, I can choose
Data SourceasUmbraco Content(aboveItems) and list editorCheckbox List(but I don't want checkbox, I wantUmbraco Media Pickerinstead of checkbox list).Sorry, I'm not really understanding where the Data List editor comes into this. If you want to pick media, then use the Media Picker editor instead? What am I missing?
Have you seen my example above. How can I pick number of Media controls dynamically depending upon number of nodes?

If you would like to make your own custom list-editor UI, that is totally possible. Docs are here:

Yeah I saw this link and checked the source code of media picker and datetime and look like it is doable.
Thanks again.
@Lee Kelleher any hint or idea?
