****ADD ATTACHMENT ON EDIT POST HACK version 1.0 - by Tommy Boy****
********
***********************************************************************
***********************************************************************
Description:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After installing this hack, you will be able to post new attachment when
editing posts, even if these posts did not have a prior attachment.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Open editpost.php, and look for:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
require("./global.php");
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Before it, add:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
$templatesused.=",newpost_attachment"; // Add attachment on edit post hack
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Still in editpost.php, look for:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
eval("\$editattachment = \"".gettemplate("editpost_attachment")."\";");
}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After it, add:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Add attachment on edit post hack (start)
else
{
$maxattachsize_temp = getmaxattachsize ();
eval("\$editattachment = \"".gettemplate("newpost_attachment")."\";");
}
// Add attachment on edit post hack (end)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Still in editpost.php, look for:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
$DB_site->query("DELETE FROM attachment WHERE attachmentid=$postinfo[attachmentid]");
}
}
}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After it, add:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Add attachment on edit post hack (start)
elseif (trim($attachment)!="none" and trim($attachment)!="" and trim($attachment_name)!="")
{
$attachmentid=acceptupload($foruminfo[moderateattach]);
$attachmentsql=",attachmentid='$attachmentid'";
}
// Add attachment on edit post hack (end)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There you go! :-)

Just wondering eyez, would it be possible for you to give me the exact link where you got this code from? I am usually a little skeptical of installing 3rd party hacks that havenโt been verified as good by [vbulletin.org](http://vbulletin.org) or something ๐

Yep, that would be very nice. ๐
And just go and install the hack, Kirupa. If the forums get all screwed up, then weโll know it wasnโt that good. ๐
โฆJust kidding. Itโs always best to be sure about these things. ๐

hehe ๐ Besides, vBulletin 3 comes with a nifty attachment tool for edited posts. The [vbulletin.com/org](http://vbulletin.com/org) sites have been down for the past few days. I hope itโs because they have released vb3 and everyone crashed their servers by downloading it :beam:

LOL - I hope so too! ๐
Will you install vB3 as soon as the โfinalโ version is available, Kirupa? ๐
