Add-On Releases - Module CMPS:Recent Attachments

Module CMPS Recent Attachments

Idea was based on original hack by MindTrix

A request from a member for showing document such as text and zip files prompted me to add an additional zip file to this hack. Please be sure you download the correct file. The CMPS_recent_attachment_images.zip is for showing pictures only. The CMPS_newattachments_files.zip will display both but will only output the extension image with the file name and info (see Screenshot below).

What it does:

It will query attachments from the database for the latest 4 images or files posted, and output it to the module created on your home page. I believe I have seen this requested both here and at vBadvanced.
Will add 1 query to the home page.

Files and Templates added:

CMPS_recent_attachment_images.zip
recentattachment.php
adv_portal_newattachments

CMPS_newattachments_files.zip
newattachment.php
adv_portal_recentattachments

Tested on vb3.6.4

Installation:

1. Extract the module file from the zip to your desktop.

2. Go to your admincp->vBa CMPS->Download/Upload Module.

3. Browse to where you put the module file click submit.

4. Make sure you set all options and permisions for the module.

5. Be sure that you enable the module in your default home page or it will not show.


Change log:

version 1.00 - First release. Added additional module for files and docs.
version 1.01 - Added ability to view the members post of the image or file attachment in a new window from CMPS module.
Added update for CMPS 3.0 module

Also, it does not show the pictures attached using

Can you please give us one that can also work with images that are attached from some website?

Thanks

Im a little confused by what your problem is.

Ok, I rephrase.

1) Members also attach photos as their signature. This Mod is showing their signature photos also.

2) This Mod is showing only the photos attached using "Manage Attachment" option. But it does not work with the photos that are attached using

3) When you click on the photo, it only opens the photo, it should open the first page of the topic where the image was posted to expect some comment on that image.

Thanks

is used for hotlinking images, it's not really an attachment. And when you say members attach photos as their signatures, did you mean with the default signature upload?

Yes, I mean that.

And what about my question number 2 and 3?

[Pottsy]

Why do I get:

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /home/xxxxx/public_html/forum/modules/recentattachment.php on line 14

Is it because I don't have thumbnails enabled (my images are all viewed inline)?

I dont believe so, its usually caused by a plugin or a function not being globaled. Try uploading the attached file to your modules folder (overwriting old) and let me know if you still have the issue. If you do try disabling plugins. I will udate the modules to reflect the change for the query call.

Question 2 has been answer

Your 3rd question involves a change in code to accomplish, not sure if others want the same thing. If there are more members requesting it, I will add it as an update.

Ok, I will wait for that
