Plur...I just ran it and it worked great! thank you again :)

Hey, thanks again PlurPlanet.... what you did works, but one more little problem... now on every post, even those without attachments it shows a spot for a picture... and if there is not a picture for it then it will show a little broken image box (you know what i am talking about right?)

so... is there a way to say if attachment = 0 then do not display or something... i am not sure how 2 do it...

once again i would really like it if u could help me...

thanx!!!

Glad everything's working for you Littlebit. :)

Matrix - Sorry about that. You should be able to fix that by opening your myvbindex.php file and looking for the code you just added:

eval("\$news[attachment] = \"".gettemplate("index_attachment")."\";");

And replacing it with:

$news[attachment]='';
if ($news[attachmentid]!='') {
eval("\$news[attachment] = \"".gettemplate("index_attachment")."\";");
}

Hi plurplanet, I just noticed that the vB code for the sigs in news aren't working. I checked and do have vB (and html) enabled for news. where do I need to head to fix it?

:( well that got rid of the attachments... all of them...
now the ones with stuff in them dont show up

Littlebit - Thank you for pointing that out. I didn't think about vB code in signatures when I added that part. You can fix that by opening your myvbindex.php file and looking for:

if ($news[showsignature]==1) {

Right below that add:

$news[signature]=bbcodeparse($news[signature]);

Matrix - That's strange... It works just fine on my server. You could try changing this line:
if ($news[attachmentid]!='') {

To:
if ($news[attachmentid]!=' ') {

(just adding a space between the ' marks) That might fix it... If not let me know and I'll try a different method for it to see if an attachment exists.

Just incase that doesn't work, here's another method you could try. Just replace that whole attachment part with this instead:

if ($news[attachmentid]=='') {
$news[attachment]='';
} else {
eval("\$news[attachment] = \"".gettemplate("index_attachment")."\";");
}

yeah mine is already like that... and is still doesnt work... i am not sure what 2 do... anything else i should check?

um...what attachment part... sorry not sure which u r talking about??? still in the myvbindex right?

Sorry, I guess I should have been more specific. Yes, still in the myvbindex.php file replace this part with what I posted above:

$news[attachment]='';
if ($news[attachmentid]!='') {
eval("\$news[attachment] = \"".gettemplate("index_attachment")."\";");
}
