Hmm, you're right. It must be a problem in the cleanup cron. :disappointed:

I'd appreciate that too. A re-release for vBulletin Version 3.0.3 is what's needed.

the same problem occurs with the attachments for calendar hack. the same missing $postid code etc...

Ive posted a message there as well

This Hack concept sounds sensational. But I am having a problem with the install. I have got down to the section where I need to modify the attachment.php file and I have been asked to find:

But I can't find this code anywhere. I initially thought it was due to another hack I had installed. But I have checked the original vB 3.0.3 file and it isn't there either. Nor is the next line of code:

Assistance would be most appreciated.

Many others are in the same boat :) Its not in the 3.0.3 code, this current hack is designed for 3.0.0 and 3.0.1...but with relatively small changes you should be able to get it too work in 3.0.3.

The problem gets worse when your trying to implement the calendar hack as well because modify identical bits of code, which i sort of had working apart from the fact the attachment disappears after a while :)...a couple others have had the same problem here...Im using 3.0.3.

We really need a genius to come along and sort it all out for us. Unfortunately im not that genius :)

yes, for the first time what version of vB I am using is becoming an issue (I am very new to hacks). I am also dreading what will happen when vB produce the next release. I am not looking forward to having to re-install all of my hacks.

Yup hopefully more hack writers will use the HTL script, so it will be easy to adminster hacks...

Dont loose hope though i im pretty sure this particular hack will be modified for 3.0.3 soon...

anybody fix this yet? can i make it delete them after they are a week old or something?

do you think if we just revert the clean up file it would work temporarily at least to avoid pm attachments being deleted. they would probably build up but couldnt we manually clear them out once in a while?

As I understand, the attachment exists so long as the PM does. So once the PM is deleted so too is the attachment.

I would probably leave it like this as if attachments are auto deleted you will get lots of complaint PMs about "where have my attachments gone?"

As for the build up, This is something users need to control (unless you have restrictions on your web space). Just set the attachment allowance to a lower number, then users will need to delete older (or less important ) attachments before they can include new ones.
