If you allow inline attachments on your forum, you may have noticed that users viewing threads with such attachments are reported in "Who's Online" as simply "Viewing Attachment."

This simple add-on will display a link to the thread which contains the attachment:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=152968&stc=1&d=1437555445

Update: version 1.1


Bug whereby no valid postid could be found is fixed.


Update: version 1.2


User action now shows "Viewing Thread" instead of "Viewing Attachment."


To Install:

Download and extract the attached .zip file.

In AdminCP go to Plugins & Products -> Manage Products -> Add/Import Product.

Click on "Choose File" and browse to the product xml file that was packaged in the .zip file.

Click "Import"

There are no settings to configure, once you import it, the add-on is active. :D

Great, installed.
Works fine in vb4.2.0pl4 and its very useful.

Thank you Mark

EDIT:

Database error in vBulletin 4.2.0:

FROM post AS post
WHERE postid =;

Ok, I am testing, but what about thread id, this error came before your update.
SELECT thread.*
FROM thread AS thread
WHERE threadid =;

I don't know if it fixes this to?

It should, unless you have posts without threadids. :D

First no problem with errors yet after the update to v1.1

Installed to v1.2 I will see what about "Viewing Attachment.", and test it several times.

EDIT: v1.2 tested, all works fine so far.
Thank you for goodies

I don't think that should be right :p but its not a big deal.

Without this add-on, that user would simply be shown in WOL as "Viewing Attachment," but instead they are shown as viewing the thread containing the attachment. That's what your screenshot shows and that's what this add-on does. I don't understand what you think should be going on instead. :D
