Installation Instructions

What does this Plugin do?

Basically, this will allow you to enable or disable the posting of attachments on a per-forum basis - A feature that vB has always appeared to lack, rather than setting individual permissions for users, you can simply just disable all attachments entirely :devious:

Are there any screenshots?

Imagine the newthread, newreply and editpost screens without the "Manage Attachments" bit :)

Edit: At the request of Bob (grrr:p) 2 screenshots are posted in my 2nd post of this thread :)

Update
Replaced the plugin with the Product Manager stuff for RC1! This will only work with vBulletin 3.5.0 RC1!

Update
Version 3.5.1: Finally, thanks to amy, got it to be a Plugin only mod!!!!!!

Update
Version 3.5.2: You now cannot get around the attachment manager link being gone and still adding attachments ;)

Can we get a pic of how it looks without the manage attachments bit, please? ;)

Git :p

Just for you Bob ;)

2 Screenshots attached - 1 with, 1 without the attachment manager bit :p

To provide variation, I have even taken one shot on the newthread and one on the newreply screen :p

LOL I can't believe you actually did it.

All seroiusness aside, there is no way to hook the file edit?

Well you asked, and I guess I have saved some other n00b asking in the future for them :p

As far as I am aware, there isn't :(

I am looking though...

Edit: I believe I may have found a way - Checking out:p

[Boofo]

I'll use it if you can do it, buddy! ;)

The reason I asked for pics was because I figured you would eventually get a newbie wanting that and doing it now avoids alot of heartache down the road. Just watching out for you. ;)

[Chris M]

amy sorted it for me! :D

Update
Version 3.5.1: This is now a Plugin only mod!

Good job! Thank you, sir. ;)

[Chris M]

Where do you want me to move it to?

[Boofo]

One little type: it is not vB3.5.1, it is vB3.5.0 RC1 lol..

That's just his mod version. ;)

[Boofo]

It already is in the plug-ins forum. ;)

[Chris M]

Yeh someone moved it after I reported it :)

Yes - 3.5.1 is the Mod version, since this mod has been released before for vB2 and vB3 :)

This Hack unfortunately does not work ... well, at least not fully.
I am still able to post Attachments in Forums where they should be disabled as it just hides the Controls.

Hint: Hook newattachment_start

[akanevsky]

That's just his mod version.

Well it might bring some confusion to inexperienced people..

[Dan]

Nice idea Chris :D Good job!

This is a neat little hack.

By change, does it remove the paperclip from the WYSIWYG?

[lazyseller]

Anyway to exclude a usergroup ? from this ? such as the admins and moderators ?
