Upload Button on Homepage

Postby gardellap » Sun Mar 20, 2011 12:04 pm

Firstly, what a great script, thank you. One thing that seems somewhat confusing; on the default homepage, not the flash/html form, you have to click UPLOAD at which point you begin browsing for the file(s) you wish to upload. I know this is explained in the text at the top of the homepage but it's completely opposite to what most internet users are used to; usually, on any internet page where you are uploading, you will click "Browse" to choose the files and only then click an "Upload" button. (just as it is in the flash/html page) I just think that could be confusing for a visitor who is used to the normal steps to upload. Again. thank you for this amazing script.

I can somehow agree with you, however if it bugs you that much you can do the following:

1) Create your own browse image.
2) Upload the image to your server.
3) FInd in ./styles/Indigo/file_upload_form.php
Code: Select all
button_image_url : 'js/swfupload/wdp_buttons_upload_114x29.png',

and change the location to where ever you uploaded the browse image.

You can apply this modification to the script and then submit it to the MOD section.

Goodluck!

another suggestion would to do the same form for html and flash upload.
(it would be possible to define one button for browsing and another button for upload.
so html and flash looks identical....


or If we detect a working flash version we could provide flash automatically.
(with the option to manual change the way of uploading mechanism)
