I have just installed DMX locally and I was wondering if I can create a custon attribute called thumbnail and upload an image to an application file that has been uploaded. I am unsure how or what the resource & control to load options may be. Forum search has sever OLD posts. And I cannot find anything in the Quickstart or installation docs. Thanks in advance.

Hi James, A thumbnail attribute type is not available out-of-the-box. I guess you could do this with a custom custom attribute. Meaning hooking in a custom control for your custom attribute. This question is more for the API forum. I'll move this thread there. To do it requires using the ControlToLoad field in the CustomAttributes table. There are some threads on this in the API forum.

Hello I have installed DMX. I created 3 custom attributes (number, date and string). In the page "ALL PORTAL ATTRIBUTES" is ok; but, when I use this custom attributes after I upload the file, nothing!... Appear the 3 fields but without the name of the attributes. Can you help me? Thanks

Hi Oscar, 1. Which version of DMX are you using? 2. You say that the 3 fields appear. Where do they appear? 3. You mention that after file upload 'nothing'. What do you mean by this? You don't see a 'custom' page to enter the attribute values? Peter

About Bring2mind

Bring2mind is the company of Peter Donker, a DotNetNuke enthusiast who has been involved with the platform from the very beginning. At the same time as the market for modules emerged, he realized there was no good document management solution for the platform yet and he set about creating this. In part he based the module on his experience with other document management systems he used while working as a researcher. His module, Document Exchange, was an instant success and has since become the premier document management solution for DotNetNuke. In 2004 he created Bring2mind as a vehicle for the module and is one of the few successful businesses solely based on a DotNetNuke product.
