ezmultiupload: upload many files at once
This page is for editors who add many images or files at a time, and for administrators who set it up.
ezmultiupload ("eZ Multiupload LS") adds Upload multiple files to folders and galleries. Choose or drop several
files, and each becomes a content object of the right class (images in a gallery, files in a folder) under the
current node.
Use it
- Open a folder or gallery.
- Click Upload multiple files (the website toolbar button comes from ezwt; the view is
ezmultiupload/upload). - Choose or drop the files. Each file shows a thumbnail, a counter and a message when it is stored.

What changed in the Exponential 6 releases
| Version | Date | Change |
|---|---|---|
| 6.0.5 | 1 October 2026 | The upload page runs on Exponential UI's exp::upload when expui is active (messages in Exp.dialog), with YUI's uploader as the fallback. Compared with the YUI version in the admin, admin2 and admin3 designs on Velocity and PHP-FPM, each file makes the same request with the same fields, thumbnails, counters and messages. After a cancel the next files upload, where YUI uploaded nothing more until the page was reloaded. Eight new texts, translated into German. Requires se7enxweb/expui ^1.0.0.1. |
| 6.0.6 | The YUI 3 uploader is removed: upload.tpl keeps only its Exponential UI code (exp::io, exp::dialog, exp::upload) and design/standard/javascript/ezmultiupload.js is removed. | |
| 6.0.7, 6.0.8 | Classes and command helpers, header and copyright notices, English and German translations. |
Upgrade note: if you override upload.tpl, move it to the Exponential UI modules. See
YUI removal.
