Re: Multiple Image selection + copy function

Hello,

In one field may be only one image.
In the current version, to select multipe images can only be done using a script, but it is quite difficult.


For save in database only image name and copy image file in a specific folder, you can use component DBFile,
set the property of the component Type = Link File and CopyTo, here you can get more inmormation about property CopyTo:

Just set property of component DBFile:
CopyTo=/images


and file will be copied automatically to this folder

if a file with the same name already exists, it will be automatically renamed.
