XF 1.0 Enhanced Attachment Uploader

One of the first 'Have You Seen...' videos we posted showed our attachment uploader in action, and went on to demonstrate how pictures could be quickly and easily inserted into messages.

However, the system at the time could only handle a single image being uploaded at once.

Not any more.

Nice improvement, did not expect to see this until 1.0.1 or 1.1.0

SURPRISE!

Great!
But I think the same file should be prevented uploading more than one time.

 

[RickM]

Much better! Couldnt stand the booring ol' single uploader. Just need to get the styles sorted out on the popup boxes (e.g add movie, etc) as they look too....'stock'.

Any ideas on expanding this to be able to view attached files in a manager somewhere so that we can re-use uploaded files instead of some users uploading them multiple times?

I have found a small problem while trying to use this cool feature: I'm on Linux where filenames are case-sensitive. The files created by my Digicam all have an uppercase ".JPG" extension and therefore do not show up in XenForo's file section dialog which allows only lowercase filename extensions.

Wow, I can only wonder what Fabian and Adrian at VB are thinking watching ultra useable features like this being added to XF. Wish those guys well.

Interesting... I'll get that fixed.

Edit - all fixed now. You might need to hit refresh.

Anything's possible

Though what exactly is it that you'd like to limit? The ability to upload files, the ability to upload multiple files or..?

upload MB-Limit for non-paying-members.
unlimited MB-upload for paying members.

Attachment Manager System?

I'd like to see something like this that we can access via our accounts. Would help a lot for managing attachments.

Okay, let me ask this? Can we can change what file extensions can be uploaded as admins? Example, on my own site I not only have png and psd extensions but pspimage and tub extensions (paint shop pro extensions).
