Support/Comments for AjaxUpload

formit2resource/resource2formit has to move the files from/to the ajaxuploadTarget folder.

When the form gets submitted, aren't the uploaded images (via Ajaxupload) saved to target (&ajaxuploadTarget) directory, and the paths for that files (to &ajaxuploadTarget directory) saved at &ajaxuploadFieldname given field name?

How can I change the Text of the Upload-Button?

Yes but if i.e. formit2resource/resource2formit renames the files or moves them on user/resource base or whatever, you have to move it back to the ajaxuploadTarget. Otherwise AjaxUpload does not fill the upload queue again.

In the AjaxUpload lexicon.

Ok, thank you

I see. Fortunately I dont want to rename or move files.

The thing is that files are not uploading to target directory and I am not getting any error messages. The files are uploading only to Ajaxupload cache folder.

Maybe the target folder is not writable for PHP.

The error was at &ajaxuploadUid, &uid. They weren't the same so the snippet was failing, but without some error output.

Jako some other thing. I see that the cache files are getting erased after some hours (I think you mentioned 4 hours). That way I cannot edit the queue after that time, cause there are no thumbnails since they get deleted. Is there a way to force ajaxupload, never erase the thumbnails from cache or change the time they remain there? [ed. note: gordonas last edited this post 8 years, 3 months ago.]

The upload connector itself is not secured on user permission (this could be provided by changing the connector). Random filenames (for uploads and thumbs) during upload avoid hotlinking of uploaded files that are not moved to target after form submission.

The only problem that could occur is posssible floading the server with uploaded files. Uploaded files stay in cache for 4 hours per default. Automatic purging will executed after each upload. The cache could be cleaned manually by calling AjaxUpload::clearCache(xxx) with other values in xxx.

Hello Jako. How can I increase the time that files stay in cache folder?

In this line

Should be done better in a MODX system setting.
