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.

Deleting only one of the attachments isn't currently possible.
As for the second question: it works fine for me. :classic:

wow, I am glad I didn't install this yet. I hope you are working on this for the next release? I think this is very important feature.

I haven't been through the code yet to figure out how you did this, but I am sure it is possible to delete one attachment.

??? It keeps your old attachments just fine.


This hack works perfectly if installed correctly.

[kabresh]

sounds like a great hack
although I'm gonna wait a bit untill development goes on
want to be able to delete the attachments 1 by 1
not all together

nice job though!

Perfect. All ok on 2.3.0?

Same problem here. Apparently this won't work with those hacks installed. rake looked at my files and decided it couldn't be done with the code changes from these hacks. I'll wait until vB3 gets released and then someone will make the hack work with these hacks, I'm sure.
