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:

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.

Hi Dan,

It's crazy but still no thumbs with me and my users.

I will install a clean testboard on a local machine to see what is wrong here. Perhaps a conflict between hacks, I don't know.

Is the following a typo in template "attachment_view"


$attachment_view_bits
</table>
</feldset>
</table

Looks like it, doesnt make any difference, but I will fix it.

[Boofo]

Any way to exclude private message attachments if we have that hack installed?

[DWard]

I cant see one because it is the same as the normal attachments, there is no way of telling the location of the attachments, therefore no way to block unwanted or sort by forums.

[Boofo]

That's ok, I'll fix it.

[DWard]

OK, not as many problems now I guess because there are barely any questions being posted about the new version.
