Ben,

I have mostly figured out how the control works and I have been able to implement it on the Front End. The problem is that when you save the files, they are referenced to whatever Media Gallery you are currently managing in the Control Panel (if nothing is being managed, it defaults the storage to...well whatever the default is)

Also...and this is my biggest problem, it absolutely doesn't work when adding media to a Group. If the user doesn't have permissions to manage a regular Media Gallery outside of a Group then the Modal window just displays the standard no perm message. If a user does have permissions to a regular Media Gallery and they try uploading Multiple Files in a Group, well then you guessed it...the files are stored and saved in the Media Gallery outside of the Group.

I know this is a lot of mumble jumble, but I'm sure it makes sense to you(Ben). I have thought of a couple different ways to work around this, but I figured I would ask you if there was a simple solution to fix this before I go rummaging through drawers.

If anyone has a clue about how to enable Multiple File upload across the entire site (front end more importantly) for Groups and non groups, please help. This is mui importante for what I am trying to achieve.

Here is a code snippet from my aggregatepostlist.ascx (I placed the link there for my own UI needs)

<script type="text/javascript">
// <!--
function openQuickUpload()
{
Telligent_Modal.Open('/ControlPanel/MediaGalleries/QuickUpload.aspx', 400, 300, new Function('doReload', 'if (doReload) { window.location = window.location; }'));
}
 // -->
</script>

<CP:ResourceLinkButton runat="server" OnClientClick="openQuickUpload(); return false;" CssClass="CommonTextButton" Text="Multiple" ToolTip="Upload Multiple Files to this Media Gallery"></CP:ResourceLinkButton>
