Hi,
in Drupal 7 i used plupload widget with files for multiple upload; i understand that plupload is installed and used with bulk upload: have we the possibility to have a plupload widget with backdrop ?
Thanks

Searching Backdrop Modules returns Plupload Integration Module and Bulk Media Upload. Do either of those work for you?
If multiple upload is the only requirement you could also test HTML5 Upload to see if it suffices.
Hi,
I used some time ago for this purpose File Resumable Upload
https://backdropcms.org/project/file_resup
and this worked fine, but found that it does not transliterate file names correctly if they are not in English - it can be used, but the filenames must be prepared in advance for use on the website according to the desired transliteration and punctuation.
Thanks for yours answers
I have installed these module but don't understand how use them in my case; plupload works well with buld upload , but for end-users, it is too much difficult to use so i would rather use it as widget like i have done with Drupal 7 but don't know how even if it is possible ..
the others html5_upload and file-resup modules don't understand how to use them ...
RE: HTML5 Upload, here's the description from the README:
Install the module and all your file/image fields become HTML5 multiples (single as well) in newer/compliant browsers.
Just install the module, and if you have a multi-value file or image field, you should then be able to drag and drop multiple files onto the field directly (or use the "Browse" button and multi-select files in the browser to upload more than one file at a time).
of course i red this document but "Just install the module, and if you have a multi-value file or image field, you should then be able to drag and drop multiple files onto the field directly (or use the "Browse" button and multi-select files in the browser to upload more than one file at a time)." mean nothing to me sorry ..it is not a documentation .... it was the same with Drupal but you had always a video or an article that explain how to do thing .. with backdrop no .. so
Sorry I wasn't clear. Does this help?
where do you find the left part ? i am also testing file_resup are the two working well together well ?i can see the UI with file_resup but not yours ..something else i have to do ?
The left part of the screen shows a file field that has been added to a page (in this case through a Paragraphs field, but it works the same on a regular file field). That field has to be set to allow more than one value in the field settings in order to allow multiple file/image uploads:
HTML5 Upload doesn't really provide any new UI, it just transforms the standard file field/Browse functionality to allow multiple files to be selected and/or drag-and-dropped onto it.
From the module's page in Backdrop CMS:
https://backdropcms.org/project/file_resup
USAGE
-
Install the module like any other module.
-
Set permission Upload via File Resumable Upload.
-
Edit a File or Image field.
-
Expand Resumable upload settings. (Comment: this is at bottom of the field's form with settings and is collapsed by default, so You can don't see at first)
-
Check Enable resumable upload.
-
Set Maximum upload size, if needed.
-
Check Start upload on files added, if desired.
-
Save settings.
Yes this one i see that i missed " (Comment: this is at bottom of the field's form with settings and is collapsed by default, so You can don't see at first)" i am working on it ; as soon as i wil find how html5_ upload works i will also try it.
Thanks to you // support of everyone is always at the top here
