[VB3 RC3] Attachments in private messages
Developer Last Online: Jul 2014
Unsupported. VB3.5 version is here:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=91220 Tested on 3.0.3 This hack enables you to send attachments in a private message. This feature was really useful to me in vb2 and I kind of missed it on vb3 so I rehacked it myself. When a user writes a private message they will be given the option to add an attachment, the same as when writing a post. It uses the same rules you have defined for a convencional attachment including file types, quotas, etc. It is only an extension for attachments to be used in private messages. As always it is advised to backup your files before hacking in case you want to go back, this is some big hack including modification of multiple files, some templates and adding two extra columns in the database tables. Instructions are provided in the txt, and some screenshots on where the attachment option appears. Info for hackers: You may modify, improve, upgrade, redistribute this hack, include it in another hack or yours or translate it provided you do it free of charge and you distribute it in www.vbulletin.org at least, there is no need to pm me asking for permission Some portions of the code are (c) Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd. Edit by MarcoH64: Because of multiple requests to make this hack work on vB3.0.7 i created upgrade instructions. These upgrade instructions can be followed after the original instructions (the 3.0.3 version). The original coder can not be held responsible for my modification. Show Your Support

Please keep in mind that if you save a copy in your sent folder that counts as a pm, so the attachment wouldn't be deleted until both the recipient's pm and your copy of the pm are deleted. It is the first time I have seen that "No post defined" error... do you have any other hack that deals with pm's or attachments installed? |

No, I do not. Your hack is the only one I've installed at all. I went back and double checked everything. However, when I get down to the SQL, I did have problems running those. I ran each individually and it did create the three tables. Though the ALTER TABLE attachment add index (private) query gave me problems though, but I eventually did create the table manually.

ok, BIG problem...... I just found out that someone can easily go to your attachment.php page in the browser and just browse through attachments! they can do this by:
attachment.php?attachmentid=1 attachment.php?attachmentid=2 attachment.php?attachmentid=3 Is there a way you can re-release this hack and change the way vBulletin handles attachments? I would suggest md5summing the attachment upon upload and assigning the checksum as the attachment ID. I certainly don't want someone browsing through my members' private attachments!!! |

is there going to be a new release for vb3 gold? I just did a clean install and am having serious problems with it... there was a lot of code rewrites in the new version, and none of the strings match

Are you sure? The code shouldn't have changed at all in the final release from RC3 at least.
