    Add Image File Upload to Umbraco Forms Field Types

    Hey Guys,

    I want to add a new Image Upload Field Type to Umbraco Forms. I found some useful links like this one (https://skrift.io/articles/archive/extending-umbraco-forms/) but all of them are implementing classes which inherit from FileUpload.

    I can't find the FileUpload class in Umbraco 8 dlls.

    If I inherit from FieldType then I need to re-implement the file upload, which is not a best practice.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks Dee

    Hi Armin,

    You might be able to find some inspiration from this package. https://our.umbraco.com/packages/backoffice-extensions/umbraco-forms-on-perplex-steroids/

    As I see it this is not for Umbraco 8 yet, but you can find the source code here. https://github.com/PerplexInternetmarketing/Perplex-Umbraco-Forms

    And you can find the documentation about how to add a new Forms field type here https://our.umbraco.com/documentation/Add-ons/umbracoforms/developer/extending/adding-a-fieldtype

    Hope this helps,

    /Dennis

    Hey Dennis,

    thanks for your quick reply.

    I already did this as well. In that solution, I am facing exactly the same issue, since it's also inherting from FileUpload (s. screenshot) which I am not able to refer to in Umbraco 8.

    Found it... seems that this has been moved to another namesape:

    Umbraco.Forms.Core.Providers.FieldTypes.FileUpload
