http://www.cytek.uk.com/upload/

http://www.cytek.uk.com/cgi-bin/upload

thanks for your help
This man is fantastic

did you find anything in my scripts?
pm me on my board
i will check later

hi there,
just a few questions: i'd like to use this upload-hack just for ONE single forum, is this possible..? and: is there any possibility to upload the files to another server..? because i would like to host the ultimatebb AND the files on two different servers to avoid a 'disk quota'error due the fact that we have a limited webspace for the forum-engine...:/
best regards and this hack sounds really interesting,
chris

sound great idea to add another CP hack to specific one forum to allow file uploading
it depends if the server is allowing external linking. it is possible. you have to try it.

Nobody can help me to install the Hack in a UBB 6.0 ????

SkipperII

I did some revising the upload hack.

I moved the toggle on and off for allowing uploads in to forum settings section in the CP.

Admin should be able to allow file upload in specific forum.

I added new CP hack for allowing File uploads in private messages.

Admin should have right to decide to allow the file uploads in private messages.

Im sure that some forums want to have users private message files and others want to block that.


The upload zip is updated.

redownload it again

I hope it works better for the users now.

Now you have an option with files wich are are not allowed, but I wat something so I can specify the files which must be allowed, how??

ELY_M: Bug: it isn't shown when I add a new forum.


Fix (not tested):

you can also move CHECKED to No, if you want it to be the default one

DO not put any extenisons that you want allow


If you leave all text boxes blank. you are allowing ALL kinds of files.

If you put in exe and you are ONLY blocking all *.exe files and allowing all others kinds of files execpt .exe

I only want my members to upload .gif and .jpg! Now, I can't put al of the other extensions in my cp

replace with:
-------------

unless ( ($Filename =~ /^.+(.$vars_misc{illegalfile1})$/i) &#0124;&#0124; ($Filename =~ /^.+(.$vars_misc{illegalfile2})$/i) &#0124;&#0124; ($Filename =~ /^.+(.$vars_misc{illegalfile3})$/i) &#0124;&#0124; ($Filename =~ /^.+(.$vars_misc{illegalfile4})$/i) &#0124;&#0124; ($Filename =~ /^.+(.$vars_misc{illegalfile5})$/i) &#0124;&#0124; ($Filename =~ /^.+(.$vars_misc{illegalfile6})$/i) &#0124;&#0124; ($Filename =~ /^.+(.$vars_misc{illegalfile7})$/i) &#0124;&#0124; ($Filename =~ /^.+(.$vars_misc{illegalfile8})$/i) &#0124;&#0124; ($Filename =~ /^.+(.$vars_misc{illegalfile9})$/i) &#0124;&#0124; ($Filename =~ /^.+(.$vars_misc{illegalfile10})$/i) &#0124;&#0124; ($Filename =~ /^.+(.$vars_misc{illegalfile11})$/i) &#0124;&#0124; ($Filename =~ /^.+(.$vars_misc{illegalfile12})$/i) &#0124;&#0124; ($Filename =~ /^.+(.$vars_misc{illegalfile13})$/i) &#0124;&#0124; ($Filename =~ /^.+(.$vars_misc{illegalfile14})$/i) &#0124;&#0124; ($Filename =~ /^.+(.$vars_misc{illegalfile15})$/i) &#0124;&#0124; ($Filename =~ /^.+(.$vars_misc{illegalfile16})$/i)

The only difference is "unless" instead of "if".
Again, it's untested, so backup before.

Edit: removed [code] because it messed the thread.

LK:

Cool idea

It look like It will work better.

I have to change the wording in the CP for allowing exact extenisons.


Thank you LK

somone fix this messed up thread please....


I re-coded the code to let "allow" files extensions instead of "block".

few new wordlets are added.

Please redownload the zip and redo the upload hack on your forum if you want the new way for the file extenisons.

Thanks to LK for ideas

It is helpful to listen to the users

I will get this installed soon on my boards.. I haven't had the time yet to take a close look at it, however I have one request.

How about instead of only being able to upload files on a particular post, create it so it's like a file upload utility. What I mean is can you modify it so that each user can access their file space through their profile where they may then upload/delete and manage their files through the web browser.. similar to free webspace such as geocities etc.

I hope you understood what I just said... and hopefully you'll go through with it, but anyway great hack.. thanks!

Bug:
There is no Upload in PM switch in Control Panel.
