Thanks to TheMilkCarton and bjhuang for clear explanations ...

Installed....

I used bjhuang's method and it works fine for attachments that appear at the bottom of a post. :up:

So, to get more advanced and have it work for in-line attachments etc, I assume I have to perform changes to the rest of the templates mentioned?

Edit: BTW, is there a reason I didn't have to do mini2's step 5 and step 6 (headinclude and header templates) and it still works fine? Also, I didn't do step 8 (SHOWTHREAD_SHOWPOST template) and it also works fine (scratching head?)
