New Feature

This feature is enhanced in Joget DX to support image resizing options


Introduction

Image Upload is designed to cater to images. Uploaded images will be displayed according to dimensions set.
The Image Upload is only available on  Professional  and  Enterprise  Edition.

 File uploaded through the Image Upload is stored under "[Joget Installation Directory]/wflow/app_formuploads".

How to set to a different storage path?

There are 2 ways you can change the wflow folder path:
1. by adding "-Dwflow.home=PATH" to your JAVA_OPTS when starting tomcat.
2. by setting the "Uploaded File Storage Base Path" option in General Settings.

Get Started

  1. Start the Joget Server  and open the  App Center.

  2. Log in as  admin  and click on the pencil icon on the  Expenses Claim  to open the  Design App. (see Figure 1)

  4. Drag and Drop an Image Upload element on the canvas and click on Edit to open up the Edit Image Upload properties.

  5. Click on UI, tick on Enable Multiple Files Upload checkbox and click OK.
