vb3 Attachments - Including Multiple Attachments Option

Woo! Finally! I've been working on this for 10 straight hours now.

It's a replica of the vbulletin 3 attachment feature, which supports multiple uploads. We can't have vbulletin 3 yet, but at least we can copy it.


Files to edit: 5
Queries to run: 5
New Templates: 3

Just be sure to backup before trying anything.
You can see it live at my forums. Log in as test/test, if you want to see it in action.

And don't forget to click the Install button if you like the hack.



=-=-=-=-=-=-==-=-
UPDATE - Please re-download the file. Upgrading instructions are included in instructions.php. And sorry for the wait. I had to bribe my parents with 15 math exercises to let me use the computer. :knockedout:
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
SECOND UPDATE - Sorry for the previous non-functioning version, everyone. I did those modifications really late at night and some errors slipped in. This update fixes permission errors, allows you to specify a maximum number of attachments, fixes 65535 bytes error and includes repairing instructions for editpost.php
I have tested it on a clean 230 test board and it worked fine.
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
THIRD REVISION - This update fixes the 3 largest errors reported so far:
1. The view image atachments option now works
2. Attaching more than one file with a new thread now works
3. Deleting a post with attachments now works
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

To everyone who used attachment.php from the old zip: Please replace it with your original one. attachment.php was added in the zip by mistake.

Try changing this:

$att = ",",$postinfo[attachmentid]);

to this:

$att = ",$postinfo[attachmentid]");

Just a guess here.

I get the following error when trying to edit a post with multiple attachments.

PHP Code:


Parse error: parse error, unexpected ',' in xxxxxxxxxxxxx /forums/editpost.php on line 156 


infact i get it on every post i want to edit..

[rake]

Excuse me. :dead: I'm such a blisterring idiot. I forgot to replace newattachment.php

Well, all the file modifications work on my current board. I'm going to install this on a fresh, unhacked board and see what errors come up.


Edit: Please download the update in the first post. This should fix all errors, including login, editpost.php and size errors. Thank you.

rake i have problem with instruction file the editpost.php part

if i already have this hack ""add attachment on edit post""

should i also edit this two parts??

PHP Code:

==========
Find
==========

    $attachmentinfo=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT filename FROM attachment WHERE attachmentid=$postinfo[attachmentid]");

==================
Replace With
==================

    $attachmentinfo=$DB_site->query("SELECT filename,attachmentid FROM attachment WHERE $qry");
    while($attach = $DB_site->fetch_array($attachmentinfo)) {
    $name = htmlspecialchars($attach['filename']);
    $postinfo[filename] .= "<a href=\"attachment.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&attachmentid=$attach[attachmentid]\" target=\"_blank\">$name</a> ";
    }

=========
Find
=========

      $DB_site->query("DELETE FROM attachment WHERE attachmentid=$postinfo[attachmentid]");

==================
Replace With
==================

    $att = explode(",",$postinfo[attachmentid]);
    foreach($att as $value) {
       if(isset($qry)) {
        $qry .= " OR attachmentid='$value'";
       } else {
        $qry = "attachmentid='$value'";
       }
    }

      $DB_site->query("DELETE FROM attachment WHERE $qry"); 


that confused me.....if i should than i got this error

Parse error: parse error, unexpected '}' in /forum/editpost.php on line 437

and what is the attachment.php do??in the zip file.....

[rake]

Yes.
Just delete attachment.php. It shouldn't have been included in the zip in the first place. It was really late so i misplaced a few files.

It also seems you haven't downloaded the new file in the first post yet.

Works now?
