bulk upload mod v1.0
Release Notes
this is a replacement for the original "file"-plugin. it uses "flexupload" for the uploading process.
files are automatically titled like thier original name and are made public.
made as a mod of "Release - 1.2, Version - 2008120901".
i also improved the upload handling a bit (see actions/upload.php).
to make this mod work you must edit your engine/lib/sessions.php and change the method get_session_fingerprint() to "return md5($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] . get_site_secret());" (because flexupload sends a different user_agent).
hope this helps somebody!
p.s: is it possible to improve the file-plugin without using the same name? can i override the get_session_fingerprint()-method automatically? can somebody point me in the right direction?

I don't think there is any way to override get_session_fingerprint() like you can with Elgg actions or Elgg events.
Oh cool, I was waiting for someone to mod the file plugin. I have three questions,
1. Would it be easily possible to switch back to the original file plugiin once I used your mod?
2. Is it possible in your plugin to set a maximum filesize and/or an overall file-quota per user?
3. Would this also work wit TidyPics? I am not sure how TidyPics works and if it needs the original file plugin.
Thanks, Daniel
1. yes of course. storage is not affected by the mod.
2. look at views/file/default/upload.php to tell flexupload a maximum filesize (this is, of course, "hackable"). additionally you should set max "upload_max_size" in you ".htaccess"-file.
3. test it!
OK, I tried it now, removed the original file plugin, adjusted engine/lib/sessions.php and tried to upload something. The uploader appears and I can select files, the size is correctly beeing displayed but the type fields remain empty.
When i hit the upload button, it says it is uploading file 1 but it isn't. The progressabr stays at 0% and nothing happens.
yeah, having problems with the progressbar, too. thought it was just a problem with my linux box. but the uploads work, however. i would really apreaciate a working progressbar, but the essential part (selecting many files which just one "open..."-dialog) works. i am no flash/flex expert, so my work is basicly done here.
flexupload is open source and just version 1.0, there is also swfupload which might be used instead.
look great just a problem in the upload new file, the view somehow not right in the bottom , it put spotlight adds outsite the frame :(
and what about controlling file size of uploads?
hey guys,
i am getting problem after enabeling this plugin. It shows me that this plugin is misconfigured.
My problem with this plugin is that it logs me out and then there is no file uploaded
I keep getting I/O Error! Error#2038, it happens after I try to upload a large file (70MB) and then it happens for all users and files upon upload attempt. Any ideas as to what might be causing this?
im same error I/O Error#2038
any ideas?
I got the solution!!
You've to edit your .htaccess:
SECFILTERENGINE OFF
SECFILTERSCANPOST OFF

Really?
No Rodolfo, i was wrong bro... but, now the bar progress works fine :)
Guys,
I'm still looking for the way to fix the problem of that pluging. Now, in my case, a simply add the lines below in web.config file.
<system.web>
<httpRuntime maxRequestLength="102400" executionTimeout="3600" />
</system.web>
and
<system.webServer>
<security>
<requestFiltering>
<requestLimits maxAllowedContentLength="100000000" />
</requestFiltering>
</security>
</system.webServer>
Please, if post the result of your test.
Regards and good luck for all,
or if you're running in a localnetwork, it's possible to work editing the .htaccess with:
<IfModule mod_security.c>
SecFilterEngine Off
SecFilterScanPOST Off
</IfModule>
i would love to have this feature in 1.8 if you guys have found the solution
