[pravinb2619228]

I am working on a component which requires an image to be uploaded using fileupload widget inside a coral multi-field 

Following is the dialog configuration:

Issue: When multiple product info is added in the "Products Tab"  of the dialog, the property "productImageFileRef" should be stored on each of the multi-field nodes. But that is not the case as you can see below:

Note: I have overridden the OOTB /libs/cq/gui/components/authoring/dialog/fileupload/render.jsp inside my project to fix one of the issues mentioned in this link

https://github.com/Adobe-Marketing-Cloud/aem-core-wcm-components/issues/101.

I have also referred the solution specified at http://experience-aem.blogspot.com/2016/06/aem-62-touch-ui-composite-image-multifield.html but that does not work in my case as I am using Coral widgets.

Environment : AEM 6.3.1.2

Any inputs from the community members would be appreciated.

Can you check this with the package provided in this article:- Creating a Granite/Coral 6.3 Multifield HTL component for Adobe Experience Manager

smacdonald2008​ Can you check this as you have already worked on coral3 + Multi-field?

[pravinb2619228]

Hi kautuksahni​/ navinkaushal​

Thanks for your reply. I modified the multi-field in the article you mentioned by including the following file upload widget:

                            <cardImage

                                jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"

                                sling:resourceType="pcwr/cq/gui/components/authoring/dialog/fileupload"

                                autoStart="{Boolean}false"

                                class="cq-droptarget"

                                fieldLabel="Background Image"

                                fileNameParameter="./cardImageFileName"

                                fileReferenceParameter="./cardImageFileRef"

                                mimeTypes="[image/jpeg,image/png]"

                                multiple="{Boolean}false"

                                name="./cardImageFile"

                                title="Upload Image Asset"

                                uploadUrl="${suffix.path}"

                                useHTML5="{Boolean}true"

                                allowUpload="{Boolean}false"/>

But the property cardImageFileRef is being stored at location "/content/mfCoral63/en/jcr:content/par/touchmulti" instead of on each of the following nodes:

"/content/mfCoral63/en/jcr:content/par/touchmulti/products/item0"

"/content/mfCoral63/en/jcr:content/par/touchmulti/products/item1"

navinkaushal​ : Can you please elaborate on your previous comment?

Thanks

hello,

Did you find any solution for that because i am also facing same issue. I explored fileupload widget /libs/cq/gui/components/authoring/dialog/fileupload/render.jsp and found parameter "data-cq-fileupload-temporaryfilepath" is one of the key value which defines where to save node based on contextpath. The problem is it always returns component path as context path and that's why it stored there not at each iterative node like item0, item1 etc...

let me know if you have found any solution.

i also referred http://experience-aem.blogspot.com/2016/06/aem-62-touch-ui-composite-image-multifield.html

but not useful. it doesn't work at all.

thanks,

pawan

What AEM version are you using?

[smacdonald2008]

I will test this with the latest granite types and see if its working.

[pravinb2619228]

Hi smacdonald2008​, @pawan_gupta,

Following is the response from Adobe support when we raised a ticket with for this issue:

As per the internal bug created with the product team, this is a limitation that is being worked upon on at Internal Jira GRANITE-21310. Once the fix is done it would be back-ported to the next AEM 6.3 service pack release which can be tracked using  Adobe Experience Manager Help | AEM Maintenance Releases Roadmap .

HI

I am also facing issue when I put granite/ui/components/foundation/form/fileupload inside multifield. When I open dialog it is showing as some box.Please help on it.

(Using AEM6.4 and Sightly)

[sumits98596204]

Hi ,

I am also getting the same button in AEM6.4.0 while using the fileupload field.

Please let us know if anyone know the reason.

Thank you

[ajay_uddaraju]

Hello Pravin,

We are also facing similar issue. Is this resolved for you ?

If so can you throw some light here.

[navinkaushal]

I guess that while saving your node the order of saving is wrong. Please look into that.

[kalyan1556903]

Hi pravinb2619228,

I am also facing the same issue in AEM6.4 while using the fileupload field , please let us know how to fix this.

Thank you

[smacdonald2008]

For this type of issue - please contact cust care - you may need a hotfix!

[Derrick-Mathaba]

do we have a hot fix for this issue yet ?

[Chris___D]

We are also affected by the same issue, we are hoping to use file upload inside the Coral multi-field.
