I would like you to add a feature, whereby multiple documents can be attached along with a single post.

I think this would be a good idea, but so the ADMIN can have more control over this, they can have a "drop down menu" of how many upload thingeys they want to enable on the board.

Anyone wanna attempt this?� It, obviously, can be done ... I ain't adding it though (because users can, say attach a 10 meg file to each one and then you'd have 30 megs for 3 uploads, etc.) .... although users need it sometimes, it's not one of the features you'd really want.�

I do installs for $25 and upgrades for $20.

What new file thing? And where in the post.pl and attach.pl would we have to edit?

I am really thankful for all your help Justin.

Guest User

I will be greatly appreciate if someone could add the multiple file features in the E-Blah forum. I am at the college and often times we need to add multiple files of various types along with the same message.

Perhaps, administrator can set a final limit of overall size as opposed to number of files. For example, if a user adds 10 files and they are all smaller than 1 meg than all should be uploaded at once, however, if the size of files is more than i meg than it should not be.

Visit: http://csmith.andazji.com login as id: georgene, password: georgene and go to 'Add a Change Request' and then on the 'Add a Change Request' page click on attachments to see an example of a similar facility the allows you to add as many files as you want. The administrator can also dfine what files types can be allowed to be attached.

Please help with this one.

Kind Regards
Azfar

Azfar,

That is a really cool option on that messboard you linked to.

Justin,

if we could get sometime like that on Eblah that would set this board miles ahead of the rest, Easy to install and easy for members to use.

Your board needs to blah copyright visable on all pages.

<blah v="$copyright"> will do it.
