I just copied a snippet out of one of our content types:
<cfproperty ftSeq="23" ftFieldset="User Content" ftLabel="Upload your pix"
name="aImages" type="array"
ftType="arrayupload" ftJoin="userContentImage"
ftFileProperty="sourceImage" ftView="tiled"
ftListWebskin="librarySelectedTile" ftAllowSelect="false"
ftAllowRemoveAll="false" ftRemoveType="delete" ftAllowEdit="true"
ftEditableProperties="title" ftTileWidth="160" ftTileHeight="160"
ftLabelAlignment="block"
ftHint="You can add as many images (gifs & jpegs) as you like
for a gallery with your listing. Your first pic is the main one so choose
carefully. Click the Upload button to upload your images." />
The related content type "userContentImage" just extends dmImage. Here is a
quick rundown of the attributes used:
- ftJoin - the related image content type
- ftFileProperty - the property on the related content type that should be
updated with the image path
- ftView - tiled or list (the default)
- ftTileWidth and ftTileHeight - if ftView="tiled", then these are the size
of the tiles. they should be chosen to fit the thumbnail from the related
content type, with a little extra space for edit links
- ftListWebskin - the webskin to use for each uploaded item.
librarySelectedTile is a dmImage webskin in core, so any content type that
extends it will have it
- ftAllowSelect - same as the array formtool, set whether a user can choose
existing images from the database
- ftAllowRemoveAll - same as array formtool, set whether a user can remove
all uploaded images
- ftRemoveType - same as array formtool, set whether "remove" deletes the
related content, or simply unlinks it from the array
- ftAllowEdit - same as array formtool, set whether user can edit related
content type
- ftEditableProperties - set the properties on the related content type
that the user can edit (if you set ftAllowEdit to true and don't set this
attribute, the user will see the normal webtop edit form)
