FriendsOfFlarum upload, the intelligent file attachment extension

zaizeku yes i did same but didn't work

I'm having problems when uploading files in a post, right now trying with images. It does upload them fine, but it removes a period (.) from the extension of the file so there is not a preview unless I manually edit the link and add the period.

Does it have something to do with the regex? tried using the one supplied, and it still happens, thanks for the help.

Dhron this extension is not yet compatible with the latest Flarum version.

clarkwinkelmann okay thanks
when will an update be avaibalbe

Dhron there is no ETA as of yet, but we are working vigorously to update all of the the FoF related extensions you all know and love using we ask for your continued patience; please take the time to read our recent PSA: https://discuss.flarum.org/d/16242-friends-of-flarum-the-collaboration-for-maintained-extensions/47

Ralkage Thanks very much will be waiting as am developing a forum for a client

clarkwinkelmann Hi, sorry to repeat the post, just wanted to know if you knew what I could do to fix this, when uploading a file, using images right now, the preview does not want to show up (unless i edit it manually), and I see it's because the link is missing a period, do you know what I could try to fix this issue? Thank you,

zaizeku which template are you using? Does it happen with all files, or only some formats?

Can you share the output of your php flarum info so we can see the version of all extensions and Flarum?

clarkwinkelmann Hi!, I've used both Default Image download template (can download but get no preview) and Complete Image preview template (can't see the image unless I add the period manually).

Here's the flarum info:

peopleinside This extension will still be updated. They just marked it as incompatible so folks will stop asking (I assume).

But, regardless, in case anyone ever wants to remove this extension even when it’s working, you’ll have broken images. Well, not anymore. Install the fof/upload patch:

composer require zerosonesfun/patch-fof-upload

Activate.

Now your images appear again even without the upload extension.

010101 Thanks but I want remove extensions that are not updated... I don't wanna add another new extension so I'm asking if there is a way to convert images strings created by fof/upload in without have to change all manually. Thank you.

peopleinside 010101 just provided an option? It works now, immediately and it was provided for free. Thanks for your patience and understanding.

peopleinside Correct. There’s no way to do that without doing something else. Maybe the word patch is making you nervous? What I provided is what’s needed. Or, you can manually add some code to your forum's main extend.php file. You have to add a little bit of code to convert this extension's BBCode back into visible images.

peopleinside
You can try with a query to replace [upl-image-preview] with the appropriate <img> tag in the posts but if you try this way obviously don't try to do it in a production environment, do a backup of the database (and another one just to be sure), prepare another installation of flarum and try there.
