Mark Huot File Extension
Development and Programming
just found one bug. The {count} variable doesn’t increment right. It was switching between 1 and 2.
Hi lockwesmonster,
Any news about progress of the extension?
Hmm, not getting the Upload Button !? Should there be one ?
Hey guys, wonder if you can help me.
I have a listing of products and I want to display a small thumbnail next to each listing using this extension. Is there a way to modify this extension so that it creates a thumbnail version of the uploaded image with _th on the end so I don’t need to add a new tag?
I’d much rather have smaller images than shrink the large images since there will be a lot of products on display at once.
Thanks!

For thumbnails I’ve been using File in conjunction with imgsizer. http://www.lumis.com/page/imgsizer/
Sample usage:
{file_field}
{exp:imgsizer:size src="{file_url}" width="220" height="220"}
{sized}
{/exp:imgsizer:size}
{/file_field}{sized} is the local cached address, e.g. “/images/uploads/cache/image_name_220x220.jpg” so it will only create the image if it doesn’t exist already.
@lockwesmonster That looks brilliant! Can’t wait for the release!
Has anyone heard from lockwesmonster? That would be such great functionality.
ORIGINAL CODE(looking at the URI hidden field)mdesign’s MOD (changing which hidden field to look at)if (isset($options['hidden_fields']['URI']) && $options['hidden_fields']['URI']=='/post/images/') $options['enctype']='multi';if (isset($options['hidden_fields']['weblog_id']) && $options['hidden_fields']['weblog_id']=='19') $options['enctype']='multi';
I’ve got tree weblogs using the same field group. Each weblog has own SAEF. File upload working only for one weblog. How to modify code above to work for more than one weblog?
I also tried to use it with different weblogs. And I have also the problem it isn’t working. Somebody who has an idea.
Hey everyone,
I apologize for my absence, but I wanted to update everyone where I stand with my extension of Mark Huot’s file plugin.
Since my last post, noticed some pretty large bugs with the way I extended the extension. In summary, the way I had coded it the extension would not have allowed for multiple file instances of custom fields on the same page. That is too big of a problem to overlook in my opinion.
So, I recently re-wrote my part of the extension for a project that I recently pushed out. It allows for adding a title, caption and order number per file. For now, I have abandoned the feature that will automatically unzip files. It was causing its own set of problems.
Once I have some time to review my code again, comment it out, and organize it a little better I will post it here in the forum. However, I will not be able to provide support for this. I simply do not have the time.
Have an issue that is related to this extension, and while I understand it’s not supoorted, hope that someone might be able to help.
The extension works on other installs of EE, but on this we get:
MySQL ERROR:
Error Number: 1064
Description: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'LIMIT 1' at line 1
Query: SELECT * FROM `exp_weblog_titles` WHERE entry_id = LIMIT 1When we deinstall the file extension all is good.
Any ideas? Happened to anyone else here and is there a fix?
Thanks in advance.
Hi folks,
I just worked on the File extension to quickly add up/down buttons/links.
I haven’t tested it extensively but it seems to be working fine.
requires jQuery (i didn’t bother to add jQuery here since several extensions already do)
in language/english/lang.mh_file_ext.php i added this between ‘file’ and ‘remove’
'adjust' =>
'Adjust',in ext.mh_file_ext.php under Table Headings
$r.= '<tr>';
$r.= '<td class="tableHeadingAlt">';
$r.= $LANG->line('file');
$r.= '</td>';
if( $this->allow_multiple !== FALSE )
{
$r.= '<td class="tableHeadingAlt" align="center">';
$r.= $LANG->line('adjust');
$r.= '</td>';
}
$r.= '<td class="tableHeadingAlt" align="right">';
$r.= $LANG->line('remove');
$r.= '</td>';
$r.= '</tr>';under Print Row comment i added the following above the “remove” column (i’ll quote that after)
if( $this->allow_multiple !== FALSE )
{
$r.= '<td class="'.$class_name.'" align="center">';
$r.= '<a href="#">'.PATH_CP_IMG.</a> ';
$r.= '<a href="#">'.PATH_CP_IMG.</a>';
$r.= '</td>';
}hrm… some reason the inline javascript doesn’t get posted, add these to the links onclick=”swapFiles(this, \’up\’); return false;” onclick=”swapFiles(this, \’down\’); return false;”
(the “remove” column)
$r.= '<td class="'.$class_name.'" align="right">';screenshot attached below, and javascript posted afterwards
and at the end of the javascript by the end of the file
function grabImageFromHref( href )
{
var pieces = href.split("/");

Where do I put the javascript you included above?
