In Line Attachments v1.2.1
By Spuds
Download



License
This modification is released under a BSD license, a copy of it with its provisions is included with the package.

Introduction
This modification adds the ability to position your attachments in your post, like the IMG tag, using newly created BBC codes. This is useful for inserting attachments inline with your text.  Several types of attachments are possible such as : full-size, thumbnail or link. For each attachment you can select how and where the attachment appears within the message. You can also use the same image in multiple areas in the same post. You can of course still have the attachment at the bottom of the post as is the SMF default.

Original mods
Based on the mod and ideas in :
- "Inline Attachments" (by mouser - http://www.donationcoder.com)

Features
o Adds bbcodes [attachimg=n], [attach=n], [attachurl=n] or [attachmini=n] to position attachments within the post.  n is the number of the attachment in the post, eg first = 1, second = 2, etc.
o Adds optional align and width attributes as [attachimg=1 align=left width=80]
o Align can be left, right or center.  For left and right aligns the text will flow around the image
o Width works on attachimg, if the specified width is less than the image then a link (or highslide) is added to one to view the full sized image
o The mod is HS4SMF aware, if the highslide mod is installed it will work on the attachment (assuming its not full size)
o Adds in line options next to the attachment/upload box to insert the correct bbcode
o The default placement of attachments at the bottom of the post is unaffected for the attachments that were not used in line.
o Works in all areas of the board such as new posts since last visit / all posts of user / new, reply, modify messages / Topic/Reply History.
o Allows pseudo preview for attachments that have not been uploaded by providing an image box / text string shown in the preview window to help ensure proper layout and placement of attachments

There are some basic admin settings available with this mod, go to admin - configuration - modification settings - ILA.  Here you can disable/enable the mod.

Installation
Simply install the package to install this modification on the SMF Default Curve theme.
Manual edits will be required for other themes.

This mod is compatible with SMF 2.0x.

Please use the ILA modification thread for support with this modification.

I'll look into that and see what is required.  I've written a new version of Highslide (in approval phase) which has a fairly extensive admin front end to which will integrate with the next release of this Mod, so you may want to give that a spin as well.

File install-2.0.xml (and install-2.0-rc2 also):
</file>

function template_main()
{
global $context, $settings, $options, $txt, $scripturl, $modSettings;

<file name="$themedir/Post.template.php">

What is it? Why code is open and between </file> and <file>?

Its a mistake that I made when creating the install xml files, thanks for finding that, good eyes!

Fortunately the parser ignores the error on install since its in no-mans land sitting between all the valid operations ... I'll remove those excess lines in the next update.

Oh, there you are!  I kept looking back in the original thread and not finding anything.  I didn't notice you'd started a new thread on this.

I've been using this mod since the end of March and have had zero problems with it.  Nice work Spuds!

Dutch translation you can add manually to Modifications.dutch.php attached.

Javascript enabled? Could be a Javascript error on the page, too.
