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 installed this hack with sucess on my test platform but have run into a problem with a previous hack I have installed that was directly impacted when I modified the postbit_attachment template. I had the "Attached Image will be smaller" hack (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...091#post442091) installed and would like to still retain it if possible and hope that someone can take a look and see what I am missing.

The problem is that both hacks I have to modify the postbit_attachment template and mix of the 2 codes dont play well. Not knowing enough of what I am looking at to figure out what is wrong, I can get it to a point where it still thumbnails the pictures, and lets me do the multiple image attachments, but all the links (as well as a signature) for the larger picture all point back to the 1st picture in the post.

Any ideas?

Here is the code I have mashed together so far:
*******
<p><smallfont>$post[username] has attached this image:<br>
<a href="attachment.php?=$session[sessionhash]&postid=$post[postid]" target="_blank">
<img src="attachment.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&attachmentid=$value[attachmentid]" border="0" alt="" width="150" vspace="8" hspace="4">
</smallfont></p>
*******

Thanks in advance. I also posted in the other hack thread to see if that author could offer any insight as well before I take it to my live site.

Hi
If i want to install the hack from scratch.. what instructions do I have to follow, it seems like the instructions require older versions to be installed?

[nghiasi]

sorry but does this include where the attachment as file rather than into the flat database?

[cindyd]

Is there something in the hack that would cause this:

Go into User Control Panel->->Edit Profile

Every user on my board has MY email address, my URL and my birthday.

This is the only thing I have hack in a long time.

Does anyone know if this could be the cause.

What is even more strange is that if you register and put in the right info, then go out and click on the email or WWW buttons it wil take you to the users places, not mine.

So this just seems to be concentrated in the "edit profile"

I am running 2.3, Mac, OS X Jaguar

Thanks for any help

I found out what the problem was....
