This has been in use for a number of weeks on a large customer engagement. A new feature enables the widget to work like GMail's File attachment widget.
The widget enables references to be automatically associated between Files that are uploaded in the Edit form of a content type. The uploaded content can reside anywhere in the Plone system and be reused by 'browsing' to them - just like you do with any other ReferenceField.
KNOWN ISSUES
- If you upload multiple items and form validation fails the uploaded items are still created. This will be fixed in the next release.
This widget makes a lot of sense if you are re-using File assets throughout content in your website. It also is very handy if you are using Entransit Content Deployment.
Change log
- Fixed to use the reference_edit macro from ATReferenceBrowserWidget (present in 1.7.2 and 2.0.1 versions), when available. This removes the double title/description field text.
[deo]
- Added a multi-upload feature. You can now upload more than one file at a time when the widget support multiple values.
[deo]
- Fixed a bug where the directory path wasn't being removed from the filename, when uploading from Internet Explorer to a Zope server running in OS different from Windows.
[deo]
- Improved the 'startup_directory' handling: if the path doesn't exists, the files are uploaded inside the instance itself (in case of a folderish object), or its parent.
