Lack of extensions for this is keeping me from even testing out Flarum. Does anyone know if an extension I might be missing? I would use it primarily for Word docs, markdown files, etc.

Edit: Found this extension. Appears to 9 months without update, but I will give it a shot. https://discuss.flarum.org/d/1080-file-upload-attachment-work-in-progress/27

natedunn it's coming in the future update: http://flarum.org/features/

Right now there is no working extension for it. All we can do is to wait for someone to create an extension or wait for the core update.

Digital Thanks for the reply! I didn't notice that on the features page. I am generally content with waiting, but I wasn't expecting it to be apart of the core, since Berlyn said as much. Change or direction on that or is it just an extension still?

Hello all! What about create fork of image upload extension and create file upload ext based on it?

knat

Extension or not, users need to be able to insert a picture with the click of a button. How else can we compete with social media.

knat Maybe this will please you for the button thingy. At least an editor seems to be in the pipes.

I'm not a big fan of having a ton of buttons in my interface. That's why the extentions i find the extension system great.

knat It is not planned to be part of core. It is best suited as an extension.
Be very patient and someone will surely create one.

knat

HavocK It's a step in the right direction but the user would still have to upload the picture some where else and grab the link.

I think it is essential that the user can just click a button and select a picture to be uploaded and inserted right away.

knat I understand your point but it already exists as an extension (not enabled on this forum) but hey... not a problem ?

Digital Why something very basic as attachments is kept aside for an plugin ? It comes in " adding content ", right ?

Digital

meetdilip I will answer that with @Franz 's very own words.

Franz As discussed in many other topics (which you are free to discuss in), it's not a feature every forum will need, or want (as you need storage space etc.), so it will not be built into core.

But there will be an extension for sure; we'll have to see whether it needs to be official (probably) or not.

And here's the extension: flagrow upload.
