Is there a mod for uploading pictures and inserting them into each post? I know you can link to a picture but my users are asking if they can upload right from their computer.

This is not a very efficient use of your database

you shouldn't be storing them in your database, files should be stored in directories by the file system, that is what it is for.

the file attachment mod ALLOWS your users to upload images to the forum it does NOT store them in the database. there is no mod here which will do so, since it is not a recomended thing to do.

Thank you !!! I'll wait and download when the mod becomes avaliable for 3.4

Is this right are, the old mods will not work until they are modified for the new version?

no,some will work, some won't, but all of them will need to be placed in different places in the code than when designed, which is why it is advisable to waitfor the authors to release them with updated code/instructions

HuwR,

Do you know when this mod is scheduled for release?
I'm working to install Snitz for support of
engineers, and being able to upload lightweight
CAD drawing jpegs into the discussion thread will
be *very* useful.

Best,

Chris

Anyone have an update for this one?

I want folks to be able to upload pictures to be included
in their post. I like that ability to just point to a URL,
but many of my users don't have the ability or sophistication
to post images on a seperate http server and then link to them.

They need to just be able to browse their HD for an appropriate
image and upload it for inclusion inline.

Thanks,

Chris

The last I heard Huw said it would be about a week away, and that was last week. However if there's another release of Snitz over the weekend then Huw knows. (sorry, a very bad joke...)
