Attached images elsewhere within the post

This is a very basic hack but pretty cool I think...
Anyway, it lets you place your attachments elsewhere in the post, i.e not at the bottom.
All you need to do is place [attachment] where you want it to show up, and voila.

Of course this mainly makes sense if you have view images turned on for attachments, so attached images show up inline.
It will also look best if you edit the "postbit_attachmentimage" template and remove the whole "$post[username] has attached this image:" part.

Anyway, installation is really easy, just one file edit. In functions.php, add this code:

	$attachpos = strpos($post['message'], '[attachment]');
	if ($attachpos !== false) {
		$post['message'] = substr($post['message'], 0, $attachpos) . $post['attachment'] . substr($post['message'], $attachpos + strlen('[attachment]'));
		$post['attachment'] = '';
	}

Right before this:

	//highlight words for search engine
	if (isset($highlight) && $highlight != '') {

A screen shot is attached...

This is a GREAT hack, thanks! How would this work for multiple attachments?

Thanks!

I tried replacing the code as you suggested. No luck. Any other ideas?
Maybe some other hack I have installed might bother this one... like ---New vbcode.js - vBcode and smilie user interface improvement --- ?
Thx,

Not working for me either on 2.2.5

I installed the vbcode.js hack as well.

Apply it again, my post said AFTER and not BEFORE. Sorry.

If someone doesn't insert the text, does it go to the default place??
