Oh! Missed the news!
Well, I was beggining to think about a full rewrite of a similar system, minus unused features, plus custom improvements, for my personnal use, in preparation for XF2. Independently of whether this remains unmaintained, this is time to push the thinking further.

Ah ok, didn't know that. I uninstalled most of Waindigo's mods some time ago anyway.
As far as this one I tried it awhile. It didn't really do much and needed a lot of work. It needs author info and much better forum integration.

Created a library in a forum. Created an article. Added an attachment to it- a PDF file. It shows when the article is created. When I view the article, the attachment no longer shows.
What is wrong?

This is a great mod, I hope Audentio takes it over.

In our case, on a big board, it had a very expensive LEFT JOIN operation that bogged down the database substantially. Disabled this add-on and it picked right up, immediately. No fix was ever offered, other than, "try it now and see if it still causes a problem." I can't risk any of my forums by installing an untested update to an add-on that may or may not have fixed the issue.
We did not use the library much, but it was a great place to store our forum rules, privacy policy, etc., and in a format that moderators could easily access and tweak the content as needed. As it stands, I had to migrate our docs out of it and put them in as sticky posts, which are now cluttering up the forum.
The idea was great; the execution left a lot to be desired.

It wasn't high priority, so we are just using XF's pages for now. I did find a text editor add-on which added basic editing features to pages. The problem with some of these add-ons is that they are written without regard to big-board forums. The Library add-on literally slowed our forum to a crawl due to poorly-written SQL. The second I deactived it, the forum began clearing up the queue of queries, and we haven't had a problem since. I cannot risk using our live forum to test add-ons, yet having them in an environment that hammers on XenForo (like, 1500 visitors online during peak hours) is the only way to find out if they are up to the task. Many are not. So, we need to be wary of anything we use.

On a site using this add on, I started all of a sudden getting the following error spamming the error log:
Zend_Db_Adapter_Mysqli_Exception: Table 'xenforo_1_2_4.xf_article_view_waindigo' doesn't exist - library/Zend/Db/Adapter/Mysqli.php:204

Is anyone having the same error, or knows how to fix it? It is preventing me from viewing articles.

Are you talking about a wiki addon?
How can that be used instead of a library node in each forum?

Unlikely to happen as it is unmaintained unfortunately. Switching to an alternative solution.

I'd tell you but I've been giving away too many of my thoughts or ideas to the Internet as it is and I'm starting to realize it's rather self-defeating.
