This extension allows your users to decide if they want an attachment to be zipped up upon upload. The file(s) are zipped before VB checks the size limit. It always annoyed me when I have to post a text document and it is too big for that extension setting. Zipping a text file greatly reduces the size.

This extension should also save space in your attachments database as all new files will be compressed with the zip method.

Installation is simple:

1. Upload the zip.lib.php file to your forums directory.

2. Upload the xml file as a plugin.

3. Tiny edit to template newattachment.

4. Click Install

I will support here as I have time.

Do I get this right, this plugin just zips all files no matter if the user is even allowed to upload this filetype?

So when he uploads a pdf which I forbid he doesn't get an error message and the file gets uploaded?

It would seem to be so.

The problem could be easily fixed by performing ZIP [AFTER] the vB file checks, rather than within it.

In the end, if you allow zip attachments before this hack, there really is no difference by adding this hack.

If you want to scan files for viruses before they are zipped up, you may be able to use this extension I wrote:
