Files List v3.01

Hey,

VERSION 3.01
[25/05/2004]

-----------------------------------------------

This Hack is released under an EverythingvB.com FullAttribution-LimitedDerivs-LimitedTranslation License
-----------------------------------------------

This new hack gives you the function of grouping all your attachments in one single list, divided into pages and with the option of viewing files by category, eg Video Clips, Archives and Excecutables etc.

All installation instructions are provided in the install file, and modification details are in the php file included in the zip. All images used for some files are also attached.

Any problems, queries or errors, please report here or PM me so I can sort them out as soon as possible, to ensure this hack is to your standards.

Current key functions:

• Lists all attachments and spans over pages. You can specifiy the amount of attachments per page.
• Specify usergroups who you do not wish to view the attachments.
• Set out the same as attachments in posts, with icon, size and views.
• Categories, so you can quickly view one type of file.
• Display username.
• Sort by username or filename.
• If enabled, images category shows thumbnails.
• Table row colours altered to make it easier to read username.
• Shows forum name and a link to the parent thread.
• Ability to sort by forum name.
• Set the amount of files to view per page.

An example of the hack can be found here:
http://www.collegepranks.co.uk/forums/fileslist.php

Note to current users about upgrading:

• Replace your fileslist.php file with the new one.
• Replace the attachment_view and attachment_view_bits with the ones in the install file.

I've also fixed the problem with unregistered users being able to view the files listing. On my board I have it set up the same way as the member's list. If they can view the member's list (which unregistered users can't) then they can view the files listing.

In fileslist.php

Find:

PHP Code:

// EDITABLE ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// Change the the number below to the amount of files you wish to display per page
//
$perpage = '30';
//
// End of files per page script
// EDITABLE /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// 


BELOW it add:

PHP Code:

// permissions check
 if (!($permissions['forumpermissions'] & CANVIEW) OR !($permissions['genericpermissions'] & CANVIEWMEMBERS))
 {
      print_no_permission();
 } 


[DWard]

Yer dont make much difference for me, Boofo. The permission thing is quite good, even though guests are not allowed to view thumbs anway.

Need some feedback from current users.

[DWard]

Unless anybody is having trouble, please do not use the template changes posted as they change so often and newer ones may have functions missing.

Please wait for a day when v2.02 is realeased.

[Boofo]

The code I posted above doesn't allow them to view the file listing at all unless they are registered. That is way better than not being able to view just the thumbnails.

And if you don't add the $mode == image to the second part of that line, you get it trying to make thumbnails out of php and zip files in the allfiles area.

I hope in the next version you get the queries finally straightened around. They are a mess.

@Dan, Yes I tried ctrl+F5. What I don't understand is that you can see them and I not <gggrrrr>

You would only see them when you pick the Image listing with my mod. Do you have thumbnails everywhere else on your board?

Also, if you use a Firewall, try disabling that and see if you can see them then.

Let me just add: Im confused!

Yes, thumbnails in the postings is working ok.

Also, if you use a Firewall, try disabling that and see if you can see them then.

Switch on or off make no difference.

Don't hurry, I'm confused too :laugh The users can see at least the filenames and the usernames and if they click the filename they will see the attachment :tu

  <else />
<img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_attach]/$attach[attachmentextension].gif" alt="<phrase 1="$attachment[attachmentextension]">$vbphrase[file_type_x]</phrase>" width="16" height="16" border="0" style="vertical-align:baseline" />
<a href="attachment.php?attachmentid=$attach[attachmentid]" target="_blank">$attach[filename]</a> ($attach[filesize], $attach[counter] views)</div>
  </if>
</td>
</tr>

Works for me mate only on the "Images" mode as said in the spec - but good work

Thanks as well DWard - looking forward to v2.01

Question: how difficult would it be to have the list of attachments in rows as well as columns ... like a gallery ...

Currently (for any resolutions higher than 800X600, there is a whole lotta wasted screen real-estate ...

[M.C.]

perfect!

Just ONE addon will be nice to see:

- add link to thred or post where is that file attached


question for tumbs addon:

why some pictures are not shown? but they OK when i click on them... the size is not so big actually....
