DMX 5.2.2

In the template view I want to implement real quick buttons for

1) file upload

- After clicking on the quick upload link the modal file select dialog shall apear

- Once the file is selected the final upload form of the e.g. RAUpload module shall come up, offering one final click to upload with default options already set

- Once the upload is complete the dialog shall dissapear and the current view re-freshed

2) folder creation

- With a single click on the quick folder creation button a input box (or nice looking ajax form) shall ask for the folder name to be created with default options

- After confirmation the folder shall be created and the current view re-freshed

This intuitive behaviour/functionality can be reviewed at gleamtech's FileVista, which I have also in use.

Hi Christian,

You won't be able to achieve your goals without programming. The template view is a templated view. There are no controls and certainly not dynamically displayed/controlled controls. For what you wish you'd need to program a new ascx. The upside is that DMX doesn't care what UI gets stuck on top of it. It is just a setting on the module.

Because some of these wishes need a lot of programming, I suggest you contemplate investing in the partial src version as you'll see the code behind of the current UIs and can take it from there.

Peter,

I see that DMX is not that intuitive as required. In fact, my post is written in view of an end-user, not a programmer. And I'm quite sure that there is a big community which requires a quick and intuitive layout too. So please understand my post as a hint to make DMX more attractive. And again, please review gleamtech's FileVista, which is indeed intuitive but currently does not support DNN as a module. I have purchased FileVista in the first place a year ago and now DMX - but with the current layout and the lack of real bulk uploads I will probably not be able to use it.
