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.

Screenies?

i thought screenshots would be useless, since most members here visit vbulletin.com. There's also the test account on my forums, if you wish to see it. Experiencing a hack first-hand is always better than screenshots.

I like screenies.

So I made some for yah....no charge

This is in your newthread template (sorry for the mislabelling in the titles):

[Disturbed]

very nice!

Thank you for the screenshots SpeedStreet . And thank you for the kind comment Distrurbed. The number of attachments is only limited by the maximum attach size. I can add an option for that if you want, although i think it's pretty useless.

Great job, a feature I'm sure my members will find most useful.
