    Hi everybody,

    I am using Image Editor Dialog via Button Selector to upload image in a profile form.
    <sfLib:ButtonSelector ID="bsThumb" WindowNavigateUrl="~/Sitefinity/UserControls/Dialogs/ImageEditorDialog.aspx" ItemTemplatePath="~/Sitefinity/Admin/ControlTemplates/News/Dialogs/ButtonSelector.ascx" AssociatedControls="txtThumbnail" runat="server" CssClass="picker" ButtonText="Select" />

    It works really great for uploading new images, but when I try to update the profile, uploading a new image with the same name, doesn't update the image. What it does is that it uploads the image with a different name such as image(1).jpg.

    Is there a possibility or property to confirm the user if he/she wants to replace the old image or upload it with a new name.

    Regards,

    Nauman

    Hello Nauman,

    Unfortunately this control cannot be extended to provide such functionality. You need to create your own control which will first query the module for existing images and then if it finds one that matches, delete it first, then upload the new one.

    Best wishes,
