Problems with Attachment Mod

Where can I get the pre-modded files so I can check some of my files to make sure I modded them correctly?
This is a commercial forum and since there are so many modded files I CANNOT mess this install up. I cannot
use the pre-modded files since I have multiple mods installed on the forum.

I was able to get the forum running on my test server at home and I fixed a couple of parse errors, but
I do not see the attachment option at all on my forum when I click on New Topic. Any ideas?

More testing confirmed that it only does not work on the Topic level but does work for Private Messages.
HELP!!!

Hello,

I have "quite" the same problem, since I have installed attachment_mod (2.4.5) with phpBB 2.0.22 and a french language package (all with the standard SubSilver theme)

and I can't see the "box" which normally allows registered users to upload files situated under their post when posting. :(

I don't have any errors in the forum, the admin section shows the attachment mod configuration and tells me that "my configuration seems ok" :shock:

Please help if you have an idea of the problem :)

I have spent a lot of time on this problem yesterday, and I finally decided to start a new installation, and to add the attachment mod to a fresh phpbb... :lol:
I think it wasn't working because I didn't modified all those *.php and *.tpl files :? :roll:

I have very carefully modified according to the install guide (install.txt), and now I can see the box !!!! 8)
... but... (unfortunately, I always end up with a but in these situations ^^ )

Now the problem is that I can't upload any kind of file !
I type a subject, message, choose a file (.pdf or .txt for example since I have allowed those 2 in the admin panel), even type a file descripion, and every time the answer at the top of the page is the same :

"The Extension pdf is not allowed"

I don't understand since I have authorised *.pdf in the group "documents" and allowed upload in my subject ...

Have you enabled the documents group in extensions management?

Here are my screens from admin
Yes, I have "allowed" the document group but when I clicked on the little "+", there were no specified formats to allow... :|
So I tried to add "*.txt" and ".txt" in the "document" group, but it doesn't change the result... I can't upload txt or pdf files, even though they are added in admin config. :(

I hope I am clear enough :?

You're not supposed to put a * or a . in the extension. Just txt or pdf will suffice.

I'm having a similar issue. A registered member of my Forum can't see the "add attachment" option when posting a reply or starting a new thread. As the admin, I can... However, they have the attachment option when sending PM's.

The attachment option is not visible to them with the Subsilver theme or my default Saphir them.

It's probably a problem with permissions. Check forum permissions in advanced mode. You should see the 2 attachment mod options at the very right of the permissions table.

Hi
I'm having the same problem. I have a forum and member of Forum can't see the "add attachment" option when posting a reply or start a new topic.

Is that a development issue or need to replace the existing uploding tool?
Please guide me.

Attachment MOD is for phpBB 2.0 and is over 6 years old now. Support has ended.
