Help with forums addon

Permalink February 09, 2011 at 1:22 AM

I am doing something a bit different with the forum add-on by using it as a classified ad system. This overall works fine, except I would like to change the attachment system to be viewed inline as compared to being a link.

Many of my users will not be very computer literate and may be very confused by it asking if they want to download every picture they want to look at. I only care about having images here, although I understand other types may be added - so having a way to set this as default for any image extension would be good.

Here is the current code for attachments:

// add new attachments if they're there
      foreach($attachments as $nb) {
         $data = array();
         $data['fileLinkText'] = $nb->getFilename();
         $data['fID'] = $nb->getFileID();
         $b2 = BlockType::getByHandle('file');
         $this->addBlock($b2, 'Attachments', $data);
      }

Try posting this to the support forum for the forums addon (go to the forums addon in the marketplace and over in the right sidebar should be a link for "Support").
