This module allows you to attach a file or image to a Pligg article. There are a lot of settings to configure it from the Admin panel to allow you to do pretty much anything with it. This module comes with Pligg versions 1.0 RC3 and above.
An early Beta version of the module was included with 1.0 RC2, but we suggest that users uninstall it and start from scratch with the version provided with RC3 to prevent any bugs from appearing.

Support
This module was developed by the Pligg team and is being released for free, but we do ask that if you use this module please consider donating a small amount ($10-20) to help us recuperate our losses for the amount of time involved in developing this module. This is probably the most advanced module designed for Pligg yet and we designed it so that it could be used in a broad array of sites. Because we had to design it with so many uses in mind it took us a very long time to get it just right. If you plan on using this module for commercial use (generating income greater than $30/month from the site), we require that you submit a donation of at least $10.

Technical support will be provided for BUGS that are recognized as valid and applicable to a large number of sites. We cannot support requests for features unless you are willing to pay for the extra features to be developed and to allow the feature to be contributed back to the community.

Features:
  • Upload image to your website
  • Grab an image from another site
  • Generate multiple thumbnails for attached images
  • Attach files to articles.
  • Select what file types you want to allow from the upload settings page. (Ex: zip jpg psd )
  • Add additional fields for each uploaded file. Use it require a name, description, author, etc. for each file.
  • Automatically embed image thumbnails into posts. Just tell it what template hook to use from the upload settings page.
  • Automatically embed an attached image list. Like above, just tell it what template hook to use to place the list.
  • Easily add HTML before and after the thumbnails or attached files list. Use these settings fields in the upload settings page to add the needed HTML to apply javascript effects to your images, or customize how the images and file list look.
  • Use template tags to embed the uploaded images into your template.
Example:
Below is a screenshot of the upload module as seen at the top of Submit Step 2.


Below is a screenshot of what happens after I have attached an image and clicked the Upload button:


Upload Module Tags
If you want to manually control where images are inserted into story content you will want to use the image tags provided next to the example thumbnail(s) during the upload process in submit step 2. Example tags might be:
  • {image1}
  • {image1_100x100}
  • {image2}
  • {image2_250x250}
The numbers in those examples are from the sizes setup from the Upload module settings page. After you upload an image it should show a thumbnail and display one of these tags next to it for you to use if you want to embed it in the article.

Upload Module Template Tags
This module will insert thumbnails automatically into your template by using template hooks. This was designed so that you wouldn't need to edit your template files manually in order to start using the module. If you want to customize where the images are individually displaying in the template, for example show the first image at the top of the post and show the second uploaded image at the bottom, you should follow the usage examples below.

To insert the first attached image at it's original file size you will insert the code {$image1} into link_summary.tpl where you want it to display. The second uploaded image would be {$image2} and so on.

From the upload settings page I have created a thumbnail size of 500x500 pixels. This allows an uploaded image to have a maximum length of 500 pixels when being resized. So if you upload a 1000x500 pixel image it would be shrunk proportionately to 500x250 pixels. To embed that 500x250 pixel image into my template I would add the code {$image1_500x500} into link_summary.tpl to display the first uploaded file for a post at it's 500x500 pixel thumbnail size. {$image2_500x500} would display the second 500x500 attached file. In the case that no image is attached nothing extra will be inserted into your template.

Examples

Please see the attached image for a screenshot of the Upload module settings page and examples of what the upload process looks like for the submit step 2 page.

Is this module work with PHP4 or/and MYSQL4 ?

I talk with someone using this module, they found this error on story_content area. Already try upload with local file and remote file (url) but same error showing. They use MySql4

Code:
Warning: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'fields, IF(LEFT(b.file_name,4)='http',b.file_name,CONCAT('/modules/upload/attach' at line 1 in /home/hostname/domains/domainname.com/public_html/libs/db.php on line 241

Hey, great job I congratulate you on the forum and the excellent staff Pligg always very helpful.
But several problems have to operate like a Techkr I can not work his impressive Upload module, I get the error:
Warning: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'fields, IF (LEFT (b.file_name, 4) =' http ', b.file_name, CONCAT ( '/ modules / upload / attach' at line 1 in / h2/dominio.com/home/html/libs/db.php on line 241

It is from the template 1.0.0 CR4 and tried checking the documentation of the forum but not find solution, I also have problems with the RSS module to import gives me the error:
Fatal error: TPL: [in line 0]: syntax error: file '. Tpl' does not exist in / h2/dominio.com/home/html/class.template.php on line 923
Also upon entering the Admin page and try to move really slow and it is getting desperate to take over 1 minute to another page.

Sorry to add several mistakes but I am desperate despite great review lost time, creating new databases, uninstalling, reinstalling, and various tests, I can not find solution.
I pray to the great team of community Pligg help me.
THANK YOU

Go to module management, deactivate the module,. and remove it.
Then completely reinstall it.
