very interesting

I like the concept, just afraid my members wouldn't know how to find the ID #....Would there be a way to make a list of the last 15-20 images uploaded with there ID's? Maybe in a pop-up window in the post screen?

good job Benjy

I have a similar BBCODE hack already at http://www.gthelp.com but, it's only for images. (no query).

ranger2kxlt,
To display attachment ID add code into newattachmentbit template (I can't remember if I edited any files to make the below code work):

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

To display the above in newpost_attachmentbit you will need to hack your files.

very nice, I'll make some changes (recent uploads or stuff like that) and use it on my forums. Thank you

is their anyway to have it so the attachment box on the postbit doesnt display when using the bbcode.

[Benjy]

This would require to detect the attachment's original postid and tweak a bit more the construct_postbit function...
A very quick solution would be to set $show['attachments'] to false, thus forcing people to add the BBcode into their post. Of course that doesn't work with older posts because it will hide the attachments...
Maybe someone could propose another solution because I don't really have time to get into this for now

I wonder if anyone is really using it? Nice hack, but I found a bug where this new bbcode is only being parsed on the 1st post view. Because of this bug, parsed presentation isn't saved to post_parsed table, and consequent views of post will show unparsed [attachment]...[/attachment] code.

The solution is to move line starting with
$post['message'] = preg_replace_callback(...
ABOVE the line starting with
$post['message'] = parse_bbcode($post...
in an original code.

The effect is that attachment bbcode will be parsed before all other bbcodes, and parsed post presentation will be stored correctly afterwards by parse_bbcode() function.

UPDATE: did some testing, the above won't work either. All parsing should be done in parse_bbcode2() from functions_bbcodeparse.php. I was able to fix this, if anyone interested, I can release the necessary updates here.

I have been looking for a way to control how the attachements show in a post...this looks promising.

I have a question on the upload attachments feature with this mod.

This mod looks like the poster must have the url to the attachment and put that url between the attachment bbcode.

Is there a way to use insert the attachment bbcode then click where you want the attachment to be then upload?

Or after the attachment has been uploaded, is there a way to drag that graphic or file or ??? in between the attachment bbcode??

I see this option frequently with other boards (without the use of the bbcode) but I do not know PHP so don't know if this is possible.

I would like to give this hack a whirl with your fix.
