A dojo widget for adding images to a page or block in EPiServer 8 and above.

Add the code to your project:

You may use the same folder structure as this repository. Remember to update the namespaces in the class-files, or else you'll get several build errors.

Module.config

I recommend to update the widget namespace (mapping between your js-script and dojo loader configuration). I guess you want a different name than "alloy". After you've updated the name-tag in the module.config you must update the ClientEditingClass in MultipleImagesEditorDescriptor.cs. It's important that the namespace is in all lower-case, otherwise your widget won't be found, probably with a 404 pointing to /EPiServer/Shell/7.x.x.x/[..].

FullRefreshPropertiesMetaData

So that the view will update itself without a full refresh after editing the content, you may want to add FullRefreshPropertiesMetaData. You can do it like this:

Add following code to your controller

var editingHints = ViewData.GetEditHints<YouPageTypeViewModel, YouPageType>();
editingHints.AddFullRefreshFor(p => p.YourPropertyName);

Add following code to your view

@Html.FullRefreshPropertiesMetaData()

Add property to a page or block:

[UIHint("MultipleImagesEditor")]
[BackingType(typeof(PropertyMultipleImages))]
[Display(GroupName = SystemTabNames.Content, Order = 10)]
public virtual MultipleImages <PropertyName> { get; set; }
