vb.org Archive - [attachment]id[/attachment] BBcode

What it does
This hack is a "clone" of the IPB [attachmentid=xxx] BBcode feature. It allows you to insert anywhere in your posts a link to an attachment, using its ID (therefore making it an inline attachment). It also detects the file type and shows either the thumbnail (with a link to the full image), the full image or a text link.
If the attachment doesn't exist or has been moderated, nothing will be shown.
By the way, maybe this should be a VB feature? ;)

What is required
- 1 PHP file edit ("includes/functions_showthread.php")
- 1 CSS style edit
- 1 image upload ("images/misc/inlineattach.gif")

What can be done
- hide the [attachment] BBcode in the search results page
- handle (hide?) the [attachment] BBcode in the printable version
- handle (hide?) the [attachment] BBcode in the archive

Notes
- This hack will add 1 query per attachment BBcode, and the usual amount of queries for the "attachment.php" file call in case of a thumbnail or an inline image.
- The "howto.txt" is provided because it includes the indented code that VB loses with PHP and CODE tags.
- The PSD of the image is provided for personal editing.
- The french version of the image is provided (don't forget to rename it).
- This is my first released hack, so please be cool :)

Support
I may not be able to provide support for this hack.

Howto (also provided in "howto.txt")
1. Open "includes/functions_showthread.php".

2. Go to (around line 604):

PHP Code:


		
			
    $post['message'] = parse_bbcode($post['pagetext'], $forum['forumid'], $post['allowsmilie']);
}

Add below:

PHP Code:


		
			
 //ATTACHMENT BBCODE HACK BEGIN
$post['message'] = preg_replace_callback('#\[attachment\]\s*(\d+)\s*\[/attachment\]#siU', 'attachment_bbcode_callback', $post['message']);
//ATTACHMENT BBCODE HACK END

3. Go to (at the end of the file):

PHP Code:


		
			
 return "$prepend$text";
}

Add below:

PHP Code:


		
			
//ATTACHMENT BBCODE HACK BEGIN
// ###################### Start attachment_bbcode_callback #######################
