Ooops, my bad, I thought it was a different project you were having issues with.
Unfortunately it's not possible to define a "custom" folder to upload files to, due mainly in part that umbraco doesn't really have a concept to separate a "folder / container" from a "media item". The nearest thing I guess would be to check whether it's allowed sub elements, but then you are also getting into a lot of checking to make sure the file is actually allowed to be uploaded to that section.
I can add it to my list of things to look at, but it's not going to be a priority for me.
List other media types then 'Folder'
Is it possible to get the DMU to list other media types then folder when selecting where to upload files?
In the CreateMediaTree method I see the 'folder' alias is hardcoded in there... Anyway to extend this?
Hey Stig,
Which provider is it you are using?
Many thanks
Matt
I guess I'm using the default one. Haven't done any configuration.

Ok. I guess I'll just replace your .ashx file then. Thanks!
I can keep you informed about any changes I make if you like. And if it is up to your standards you can include it in future releases :)

Hey Stig,
Sure thing, I'd love to see any changes you make and add them in if they will benefit everyone.
All the best
Matt
