I installed this hack on 2.2.9 AND have the hack that allows people to add attachments on editpost an ran into a small problem.

with a combination of this code from this hack and also the add attachment on edit post I was unable to add a 'new' attachment when editing a post. No problem replacing an attachment or deleting an attachment that was placed in the post via newthread or newreply.

Therefore I cam up with following few lines that fixed the problem in editpost.php

add this bit of code:

--------------------------
if ($attachment != '' and $attachmentaction < ' ')
{
$attachmentaction = "new";
$postinfo[attachmentid] = 999;
}
-----------------------

before:

-----------------------
if ($postinfo[attachmentid]!=0) {
// check attachment status
// keep, delete, update
-----------------------

Don't worry about the $postinfo[attachmentid] being set to 999 because a new ID is calculated later in in the code by calculating the next available key value in the attachment table primary index.

hey Scott, one small question...

why didin't you just use attachmentid as the file name?

by the way - this is a great hack. My attachments table had grown to over 400 mb alone. I never liked the idea of keeping binary data (blobs) in a sql server table.

I have also created my own hack to use mogrify to automatically reduce the size of uploaded images and avatars on my forum and my users love my site. They have no idea about how their attachments are stored but it's pleasing to me to have them as separate files instead of cluttering up my database.

You've applied some part of the hack wrong :)

You have an extra } somewhere

anyone ? :(

One thing i noticed:
During the installation, set your attachments folder RELATIVE TO THE ADMIN FOLDER, then import the files and then set it relative to your root folder. That will probably fix the above error, assuming the folder is chmodded correctly.
