Overview

Changes the default folder for choosing existing files through UploadField to the folder set with setFolder() (if set)., _(*3)

SilverStripe 3.2 introduced a new default behavior for UploadField that shows files in all folders by default when "Select from files" is selected., _(*4)

Now, if you tried to keep the assets tidy in the past, you have probably used 'setFolder()' on your UploadFields to define a folder within assets where your particular files should be uploaded to. To let a user select files from that particular upload folder, you would now have to add 'setDisplayFolderName()' as well:, _(*5)

UploadField::create('MyField')->setFolder('MyUploads')->setDisplayFolderName('MyUploads');

This module removes this extra step by automatically setting the display folder to the upload folder if that is defined for an UploadField., _(*6)

This module will be obsolete by the changes introduced in this pull request (probably SS 4.2). There won't be a SS4 compatible version of this module., _(*7)
