wow.. this is what im waiting for.. so where is it hosted? and do we have a limit for file attachments? and do we have access to all the attachments as admins? thanks for this..

It is hosted by us. You can see all information in the tutorial :
https://help.forumotion.com/frequently-asked-questions-f5/attachments-t66572.htm

so how big is the allotted space for the whole forum? is it like the SERVIMG? or is it limited like the gallery?

By default, you have 20 Mb to share between gallery and attachments.

i thought so.. how i wish it was like the servimg hosting..

hey Typlo, i cant seem to attach files! I edited all the settings already. But i dont know how to attach.

i can now access it.. is there a way to make the allotted 20mb more bigger? any way for credits to be bought without using credit cards? i dont have a credit card..

Avatar has gone! why?
also, i cant attach

I do like the Global announcement thing as this will make things SO much easier. However, the attachment should be allowed to host off an external host. Like mega-upload. Because 20$ for 500 megs is NOT alot of space for alot of cash.

Try fileden.com.. Its free and hosts a bigger size.. 1gig storage..

I can't see attach file in my editor.Why????

OMG THX FORUMOTION xD

i wonder if there are limits? i meant like if we upload lots of file , by different users , will there be limit for all the size alltogether?

Our avatar button has completely vanished for all members. I read thru the tutorial and there is a notification saying if we have personalized templates go "here" and "here" to edit our templates, but there is NO LINK.

We also cannot attach anything. We just want our avatar button back....really, that's all...

thank you...

Oh THANK YOU so much to forumotion for adding attachments!!!!!!! Forumotion is now THE BEST!

Hi, I have a question for the upload, all exstra works all ok, but I wonder if I personally upload, if the max as far as I ask for a day or I can upload it for ever, but I think it's for a day that so many can upload and then again tomorrow from scratch

Sweet new features, thank you so much!!!

I have found the same problem on my site
the forum admin sent me a pm telling me that he has tryed to find the setting in he's profile but found it missing

We have work a way around it and that is to make a link in the site that will take you to the settings but its just a fast fix for now

Add this link to your tool bar for now.

Go to ACP
then go to Display then go to * Headers & Navigation
Add a customised menu

Code:

http://[b][i][your site address Here][/i][/b]/profile.forum?mode=editprofile&page_profil=avatars

then save.
this should be a little of a fast fix till the tech team fix it.

Hope that helps

~Ape~

Woops sorry for the dub post
please remove the [b] -and- [i] in the code in my last post

wow great job on this one...

I wanted to ask if i buy more storage space (500MB) does it stay forever or does it get deleted as before... (I've used 200MB for gallery but i have 20mb now)

Thank you so much, Ape Man. Hopefully, they will fix it soon!

I hope the see you soon is very soon.

thanx

For those that have actually customized more than just the main tpl's Here are more fixes.


If you have edited your posting_body.tpl
the new update won't be in place.
Load the default and edit it with your customizations

Also a lot of people use the blog on their forums... so to add the attachement to your blog :

After : {postrow.displayed.MESSAGE}

Paste this code:

Code:

<!-- BEGIN switch_attachments -->
<dl class="attachbox">
<dt>{postrow.displayed.switch_attachments.L_ATTACHMENTS}</dt>
<dd>
<!-- BEGIN switch_post_attachments -->
<dl class="file">
<dt>
<img src="{postrow.displayed.switch_attachments.switch_post_attachments.U_IMG}" />

<!-- BEGIN switch_dl_att -->
<a class="postlink" href="{postrow.displayed.switch_attachments.switch_post_attachments.switch_dl_att.U_ATTACHMENT}">{postrow.displayed.switch_attachments.switch_post_attachments.switch_dl_att.ATTACHMENT}</a> {postrow.displayed.switch_attachments.switch_post_attachments.switch_dl_att.ATTACHMENT_DEL}
<!-- END switch_dl_att -->

<!-- BEGIN switch_no_dl_att -->
{postrow.displayed.switch_attachments.switch_post_attachments.switch_no_dl_att.ATTACHMENT}
<!-- END switch_no_dl_att -->
</dt>

<!-- BEGIN switch_no_comment -->
<dd>
<em>{postrow.displayed.switch_attachments.switch_post_attachments.switch_no_comment.ATTACHMENT_COMMENT}</em>
</dd>
<!-- END switch_no_comment -->

<!-- BEGIN switch_no_dl_att -->
<dd>
<em>{postrow.displayed.switch_attachments.switch_post_attachments.switch_no_dl_att.TEXT_NO_DL}</em>
</dd>
<!-- END switch_no_dl_att -->

<dd>({postrow.displayed.switch_attachments.switch_post_attachments.FILE_SIZE}) {postrow.displayed.switch_attachments.switch_post_attachments.NB_DL}</dd>
</dl>
<!-- END switch_post_attachments -->
</dd>
</dl>
<!-- END switch_attachments -->

That should give you attachements to the blog.


Problem is that the attachements don't get uploaded.
I don't know why. I set the max at 17k kbs.... I gave everyone a limit of 2MB, and I can't upload. As soon as I hit submit it refreshes and nothing is loaded.
Any other templates need to be modified? Typlo ... apart from the posting_body tpl? and the view topics tpls?

@ Jalo - I've tested it out ... Its uploading for me (on invision)

We need the Credits Donations system under every users' message profile for our next update!

These updates are alright. They were really needed!
