Attach Tags

[Jase2]

Hello,

I see the attach tags attachmentid

I know it displays attachments in a post, instead of at the bottom...but how are you supposed to know the attachment id?

Regards Jason :)

You can hover over an attachment link and get the id from the statusbar (that's how I've always done it anyway).

[Jase2]

I still don't get how this works. Are you supposed to upload it first, make your post, then edit it?

Regards Jason :)

Yes, the tag assumes that you have attachments uploaded. You can find this by hovering like Lynne suggests or using the ?id= on attachment.php (if that still works in vB 3.7 I am not sure).

Why not just use the paper clip -- that puts it in for you automatically.

Regards Jason :)

I thought you were talking about using the attach tags on an attachment you had uploaded in another post.
