Please use repair_settings.php to verify there isn't an error in your SMF (URL) config. Like Diego said, your forum is accessible both via http and https, and only one of those can be configured in SMF.

Maybe the mod constructs absolute URLs, which use the configured forum URL, which "logs out" users on the wrong domain?

Ran "repair_settings.php" with no errors found. 

Please advise

I am in the process of purchasing a domain name and giving the Forum a proper home..... Hoping for the best.... This mod is perfect for my needs.

How do I add an extention ?  I would like to add "Bogdan" to the list

[shawnb61]

The list of extensions is built dynamically.

So, add a file with that extension.

Note that the extension list is cached, so there may be a brief lag.

[keyboard]

So if I want to add "Bogdan" to the Extension's, I need to create a file like "Bogdan.Bogdan" and upload to a Directory named "Bogdan" and this will add Bogdan to the list ?

No, just upload an attachment with that extension.  Like any other attachment.

You may need to add the extension to the list of valid extensions under Admin | Forum | Attachments & Avatars | Attachment Settings to allow the upload.

You may need to wait a few minutes (or clear the cache) for it to appear, since the current set of extensions is cached.

So if I check the "PDF" then "Search".... I should only be able to see all the PDF's


But this is what I am seeing

v2.0 uploaded.

Added grid view; & improved handling of guest attachments.

Some notes when using the Attachment Browser:
 - All the column headings are clickable, and when you click on them, it will sort by that column.  Clicking a 2nd time will sort in descending order.  Handy for seeing items uploaded recently, or items frequently downloaded, etc.
 - Many of the fields within the list & grid are clickable - e.g., clicking on the filename will download the file.  Clicking on the message subject (list view) or the post date (grid view) will bring you directly to the post that has the attachment.
 - Clicking on the "Filter By" button allows you to filter by poster, date range, file extension, and various tags.
 - When viewing a filtered list, clicking on the "Search Again" button at the bottom of the list will bring you back to the "Filter By" screen to allow you to tweak the filter.

[shawnb61]

v2.1 is available, with enhancements to the grid view.

Good morning,
Great Mod!! THANKS...

I took the liberty of doing a French translation.

Excellent day.

why not translated this small part?

Code Select Expand

$txt['return'] = 'Return';

Code Select Expand

$txt['return'] = 'Retour';For example.

Thanks for the translation.

@shawnb61: Could you please add the ability to delete attachments from the front end, including giving regular members permission so they can better manage their amount of space?

Interesting...  Do you allow users to edit posts & delete attachments indefinitely?

I've seen HUGE problems with that...

If I were to consider making such a change, it would need to be subject to normal post edit rules.  However, since most forums have this restricted (for good reason), I'm not sure how much benefit it would actually provide.  Note that today, you can click to go directly to the post to edit (if allowed) in a separate tab.  You can then return to the original list on the original tab.  A couple clicks, but doable today, on a per-attachment basis.

Yes, to be clear my members will be sharing their own art, and photography and whilst most are content with leaving them on. There might be some who choose to have them taken off after some time.

I'll give this a think.
