Reletively new to Umbraco and so far I am enjoying it. I have a few issues with the way that the media is handled but I think that is just because I still need to understand it more. Anyway, that brings me to my question here.
I have installed the package, everything seemed to have gone well, except that my gallery tab didn't update with the new tab as per the screen shot. I am running Umbraco 4.7.0. Not sure if that could be why?
Check your dashboard.config file it should have an entry, i do recall with previous umbraco versions the package action to update the config would not always work so although it had installed you would not see it and would have to manually add the entry.
Unfortunately I haven't been able to give this more time yet. I'm hoping I'll be able to free up some time soon to have another crack at it, but at the moment, it's still not working for me.
I experience a similar problem. I installed the MultiFileUpload package, but I did not see any Upload tab in the Media section.
I resolved the problem by manually registering the Upload tab on the media type "Folder" as it is described in the documentation for the MultiFileUpload package. One thing to notice was that the data type for Multiple File Upload had registered the wrong user control to render - so I fixed that as well on the data type, setting Render Control to Multiple File Upload.
I resolved this one by checking all the permissions in the whole installation. A couple were wrong.
It would be REALLY good if someone could produce a package for the dev section that would allow you to set the correct permissions automatically to allow package installation then set them back to secure afterwards. I find permission setting to be one of the big bug bears in Umbraco. Wish I knew enough to do it myself but I'm just a humble web dev, not a "computer programmer";)
Upload Tab not appearing in the Media section

Hi
Thanks for such a quick reply. I have checked it and under the media section, this is what loaded:
<section alias="StartupMediaDashboardSection">
<areas>
<area>media</area>
</areas>
<tab caption="Get Started">
<control showOnce="true" addPanel="true" panelCaption="">
/umbraco/dashboard/mediadashboardintro.ascx
</control>
<control showOnce="true" addPanel="true" panelCaption="">
/umbraco/dashboard/desktopmediauploader.ascx
</control>
<control showOnce="true" addPanel="true" panelCaption="">
/umbraco/dashboard/mediadashboardvideos.ascx
</control>
</tab>
</section>
What should it be?
Regards
Ricardo Carvalho
Hi Ricardo, did you ever find a solution to this? I am having the same problem at the moment, and am not sure what is wrong with it.

Hi Sean
Sorry for taking so long to get back to you.
I have not yet come across a solution to this yet. Interestingly enough, this evening I came acros the fact that I am still having this issue.
Have you come across a solution yet? If so, please post it here.
