Accessing Media Library from plugin - Media Selector? (4 posts)

    I have a plugin that creates a page for inputting a path to an image. I would LIKE to provide a button that takes the user to the Media Selector, then auto populates the text field with the path.

    Is there a function or a strategy for calling the 'media selecor'(?) and getting back information about the image (like the path to it)?

    *searching for this too*

    I want to access the media selector in my widget-settings to select pictures from the wordpress media and save their id into a database option of my plugin - similar to ed4becky's idea.

    edit: already found this. but it is not exactly what i need..

    @ed4becky: doesnt look like we would get a soloutin using 3.0.4... An interesting discussion on this topic:
    http://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-wps-thickbox-in-a-plugin?replies=16

    and on this trac ticket: http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/13817

    Possibilities to fix this are on their way with 3.1!
