Attachment In Quickreply

[tnguy3n]

What this hack does is to add an attachment option to quickreply in showthread as of New Reply or New Thread. This is good for boards that have slacked members who don't want to click on New Reply, but wanting to attach file on Quickreply.

worked flawlessly. :)

[Vivi Ornitier]

nice and very useful addition ;)

[Oblivion Knight]

Does this take in to consideration the usergroup's attachment permissions?

If I had my board set up to only allow staff to upload attachments, would registered users still be able to see the attachment option on QuickReply, and would they be able to use it?

If you disable upload to certain usergroups, the upload manager wont show in quickreply, those users just see normal quickreply. ^_^

One small change I made to the showthread.php change, replace require_once('./includes/functions_file.php');
$inimaxattach = fetch_max_attachment_size();with: require_once('./includes/functions_file.php');
$attachtypes = unserialize($datastore['attachmentcache']);
$inimaxattach = fetch_max_attachment_size();This will list the valid extentions instead of just displaying a blank space.

Awesome.. I'll be installing this later then :)

Thanks for sharing.

[Red Blaze]

Thanks PlenoJure, I noticed that myself, but didn't know what code to add. ^^;;

[Oblivion Knight]

In showthread_quickreply, I think this:

<!--- showthread quickreply attachement --->
</tr>
<td>
$showthread_attachmentoption
</td>
</tr>
<!--- showthread quickreply attachement --->Should be this:

<!--- showthread quickreply attachment --->
<tr>
<td align="$stylevar[left]">
$showthread_attachmentoption
</td>
</tr>
<!--- showthread quickreply attachment --->

*attachment updated* thanks, PlenoJure & Oblivion Knight . :)

[NuclioN]

Usefull :) Tnx.

[Oblivion Knight]

*attachment updated* thanks, PlenoJure & Oblivion Knight . :)You've still got part of the template wrong, there should be an opening <tr> tag and a closing </tr> tag. Currently you have 2 closing </tr> tags.. :)

[tnguy3n]

thanks for the notice. *updated*. ^_^

[gmarik]

Megatekno already released "Smiles quichreply" (and I got it worked great on my board). i don't know if it's necessary to addy this function again in the quickreply.

[LPTV]

Sorry! But i have problem:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: fetch_max_attachment_size() in /home/pvbcttc/public_html/forum/showthread.php on line 1530

Can you help me? :(

[tnguy3n]

Sorry! But i have problem:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: fetch_max_attachment_size() in /home/pvbcttc/public_html/forum/showthread.php on line 1530

Can you help me? :(

above:
$inimaxattach = fetch_max_attachment_size();

make sure you have this line
require_once('./includes/functions_file.php');

[LPTV]

yes! i'm sure i have code:
require_once('./includes/functions_file.php');

Can you check for me now?

[tnguy3n]

check your showthread.php file again . i don't think it prints out warning fetch_max_attachment_size() as an underfined function if you have includes/functions_file.php included. (fetch_max_attachment_size() is declared in includes/functions_file.php file ;))

(can you post link to your board so that i can check that error?)

[LPTV]

i did step by step of you in instruction and i have seen a bug. Now i removed hack of you.

thAnkx!

[alfaowner]

downloaded and installed into eack skins within 10 mins, very easy to do. Many thanks

[alfaowner]

Hmmm, it appears my members cannot use it? looks as if its only working for admins!?

Do you have Upload Attachment enabled to Registered Group? Usergroup that has no Upload permission won't see this option in quickreply. :)

Enable Upload: Usergroup -> Usergroup Manager -> Can Upload Attachments.

[alfaowner]

Hi mate, thanks for replying to offer help, well, i knew the answer already, but i checked this and "Upload Attachments" is Yes. Plus they are uploading on the board already.

So i created a fresh account to try it. (BTW - I can still see the button at all times)

HERE IS THE MESSAGE I RECIEVE WHEN I TRY TO UPLOAD AS A MEMBER
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

meatandtwoveg, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.


Very weird! http://www.alfaowner.com/Forum/showthread.php?p=337700#post337700

[tnguy3n]

that's odd cuz I tested on localhost & my board as normal users, and they both work fine.

( you can test it out on my board as well... http://all4actions.net )



**** edited ****

I figured out why.... cuz you set regular members not to upload nor download attachment in Announcement forum. It works fine for any other forums on your board. ^_^

[alfaowner]

ok, cheers, whats the edited bit, you u swear at me ;)

[enginethatcan't]

installed, thanks

$inimaxattach = fetch_max_attachment_size();This will list the valid extentions instead of just displaying a blank space.

How would you add commas to separate the extentions?

[Dennis Olson]

I installed this hack, and get the "manage attachments" button (and associated popup window when I click the button). Everything appears to work normally, but when the post is made, the attachment is gone. (vB 3.0.3)

Anyone have any insight on this?

Thanks!

Sounds like you did not hack your file properly.

Please know reporting the post will not get it fixed any faster.

[tnguy3n]

@ 43v3rl0v3.yen: check Attachment option for your usergroup in that forum.

@ kfiasche81: you perhaps didn't hack your file properly like Zachery.
check,
