Re: Edit images in database not displayed
Hi Joel,

The image that is used to indicate empty values is the following:
<websiteroot>\smartDBtemplates\EmptyImage.GIF.

You can override the EmptyImage.GIF file with our own.

If you have any other questions, we will be more than happy to help you.
Best wishes,

Re: Edit images in database not displayed
Hi,

How to use FileNameFromDiskTemplate template. I suppose it is saving the file name in database and the data is saved outside.

Re: Edit images in database not displayed
Hi Joel,

Yes, the FileNameFromDiskTemplate can be used with text data columns. The value in the database column stores a file name. The actual file resides in a predetermined folder in the web site. The folder location is specified in Web.config in the appSettings section. The setting is named SDBF_UploadDirectory and must point to a virtual directory. For example "~/UploadDir/". You can find example web.config in the Demo web site which is shipped with the installation.

In ReadOnly mode the FileNameFromDiskTemplate template displays either a link to download the file or an image depending on the extension of the actual file. In Edit mode the user can upload a new file. The file is saved in the designated folder and only the file name is stored in the database. If the database columns has text length limitation then the file name is shortened( preserving the extension) in order to fit into the specified limit.

If you have any other questions, we will be more than happy to help you.
Best wishes,
