this is a great contribution... none of my uploads have worked using other hacks...but this one does what it says.. and i am a happy writer for it...

[DPSR]

Can somebody please confirm if this hack is working on vb 3.6.4?

[johnstires]

THis is a great add-on. Is there a way to create 2 separate folders to upload to?

[HappyPike]

I do hope beebi would continue to update the addon. It's truly useful and awesome!

The addon gives each user its own folder (folder name is user id).

doesn't work for me on 3.6.4... the fileupload center page after upload just stays blank and doesn't redirect anywhere... and files do not appear on server or within ACP...

any ideas?

I ran the diagnostics without error... confirmed CHMOD was done...

[Tyegurl]

fullt reinstall it...works on my 3.6.4 but it didn't on the first install. i had to reinstall mine

Tried the reinstall without luck... question for any 3.64 installs... when i click the FILEUPLOAD link from the forum... it takes me to the upload page but the style isn't carried over... its just a white page with my header but my background color is gone...

Any ideas on how else i can trouble shoot... when i uninstalled i just reimported the xml.... setup the FTP info and that was it....

BTW>>> is beebi still around? Cuz it looks like another kewl hack has been abandoned... does anyone want to pick this up? The major difference with this hack and vb's attachments is the FTP option... unless you can do the same with vb's attachments...

UPDATE: I reverted the following templates after reinstall and its just complaining about "Not able to upload File"... so I will review this thread

uploader, uploader_result

UPDATE #2: Did the CHMOD on UPLOADER and everything works good now... only having trouble uploading large files.... will check max size

I downloaded your hack and followed the instructions exactly and carefully, but unfortunately it didn't work.

It used to work fine when I installed it some months ago - I tested it uploading files on my own server. But as I tried configuring settings for an external server, it failed to upload files, while it was connected to the FTP (I made sure I used an FTP account as described in your instructions). Anyway, from that moment on, I have been unable to upload files even on my own server.

Here is the message I receive: "Sorry, I'm not able to upload the file
Please inform the Administrator."

I would be greatful if you could help me.

G'day everyone,
I'm a newbie at this game, and was all set to install this.
However, going by the latest comments, is fraught with danger.
If the Author is no longer supporting the upgrades to VB, then I think it should be removed. I'm totally disappointed in what looked to be a very good Mod for our board.
Kindest Regards, Bill.
