I'm not sure if this is supposed to work this way, but when I use this macro in the front end it will refresh the page after a file uploaded. Is there a way to stop this?
Also, is it possible to display the uploaded image after it is finished? or pass the url into a form?
May I ask what version of Umbraco you're using? This package has a couple of years on it's back and if you're using a relatively new version of Umbraco (4.11+) then you might not need this package since a lot has happened to the media section in the newer version etc.
So please ellaborate a bit more on the version etc.
Ah, sorry about that. Forgot that this package was for website users and had nothing to do with the backend. It can sometimes be hard to keep track of :)
So the issue is not that images are not uploaded but rather that you want to know if the behaviour of the package can be changed?
Thanks for the reply. This works for the backend as well.
I have got this somewhat sorted, but I would like to know if I could return the umbraco "id" field of the uploaded image so I can display and pass along the url.
or
If that is not possible can I have this upload to a regular folder instead of a node.
Jan, the package was built with the purpose of working for both backend and frontend. Eric, the package could return a list of IDs of the added files. That's not available at the moment though.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

v 4.8.0
I'm not really interested in using it in the media section. More for end users to upload photos as part of a form.
