vb3 Attachments - Including Multiple Attachments Option

Woo! Finally! I've been working on this for 10 straight hours now.

It's a replica of the vbulletin 3 attachment feature, which supports multiple uploads. We can't have vbulletin 3 yet, but at least we can copy it.


Files to edit: 5
Queries to run: 5
New Templates: 3

Just be sure to backup before trying anything.
You can see it live at my forums. Log in as test/test, if you want to see it in action.

And don't forget to click the Install button if you like the hack.

UPDATE - Please re-download the file. Upgrading instructions are included in instructions.php. And sorry for the wait. I had to bribe my parents with 15 math exercises to let me use the computer. :knockedout:
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
SECOND UPDATE - Sorry for the previous non-functioning version, everyone. I did those modifications really late at night and some errors slipped in. This update fixes permission errors, allows you to specify a maximum number of attachments, fixes 65535 bytes error and includes repairing instructions for editpost.php
I have tested it on a clean 230 test board and it worked fine.
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

THIRD REVISION - This update fixes the 3 largest errors reported so far:
1. The view image atachments option now works
2. Attaching more than one file with a new thread now works
3. Deleting a post with attachments now works
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

To everyone who used attachment.php from the old zip: Please replace it with your original one. attachment.php was added in the zip by mistake.

I can only assume that the error lies in the way you did the modifications.
Could you please post the errors again, just for reference?

However i have fixed most of the problems now apart from 1
All the old attachments just show up as the shape and size of the image but the image is blank
for example http://clanantivirus.net/forums/atta...ttachmentid=50 but the next image - posted at the same time appears?
http://clanantivirus.net/forums/atta...ttachmentid=51

Also i can edit any post with out an attachment but not with them?

the error i get then is

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/virtual/site97/fst/var/www/html/xxxx.net/forums/editpost.php on line 156

and line 156 of the code reads

PHP Code:

 $att = (",$postinfo[attachmentid]");
    foreach($att as $value) {

it's obviously just the attachment.php. Get a fresh, unhacked one, and you will be fine.

As for the second error - you didn't hack the file correctly.

I have tried a "fresh" attachment.php file and i was still getting the error messages.
As for the editpost.php i have taken my one i save prior to trying this hack and that is when this error comes up...

You either need a pair of glasses or you need to clear your cache, because that is not possible.

there is no need to get personal. I have followed your instructions to the T and it is happening. I will gladly send you the files - pre and post hack and you tell me where i am going wrong!!
