Hi ! Excuse me but i need this plugin too, to my bb-forum.
The problem is that, i think, i don't do the installations instructions correctly.
I'm not an expert so, maybe i don't put the repertory "bb-attachments" in the good area.
Someone can help me please ? I don"t understand where i must put it... :'(

I was able to get this plugin working.
I made the suggested change by WarFrog:
from: add_action( 'bb_post.php', 'bb_attachments_process_post');
to: add_action( 'bb-post.php', 'bb_attachments_process_post');

Then I was seeing red X's where the image should be. So i jumped in the database and created the database manually, since it wasn't there, and everything worked.

I have the same problem I am seeing X's where the image should. The uploading functionality works fine in the /bb-attachments folder.
What do mean by creating the DB manually?

Thanks but, my problem's that i dont' know if i up or not the document. It's look like if i did "send the messag" when i try to upload something. Do you understand what i mean ?

@ksanz. I had the same problem and I also added the database table manually. Apparently there is something not working that the table is generated automatically.

Run the following SQL query on your database:

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS bb_attachments (
id	int(10)	UNSIGNED NOT NULL auto_increment,
time	int(10)	UNSIGNED NOT NULL default '0',
post_id 	int(10)	UNSIGNED NOT NULL default '0',
user_id 	int(10)	UNSIGNED NOT NULL default '0',
user_ip 	int(10)	UNSIGNED NOT NULL default '0',
status	tinyint(10) 	UNSIGNED NOT NULL default '0',
downloads	int(10) 	UNSIGNED NOT NULL default '0',
size	int(10)	UNSIGNED NOT NULL default '0',
ext	varchar(255)	NOT NULL default '',
mime	varchar(255)	NOT NULL default '',
filename	varchar(255)	NOT NULL default '',
PRIMARY KEY ( id ), INDEX ( post_id ) ) CHARSET utf8  COLLATE utf8_general_ci

After this, the plugin worked fine for me!

Not working for me either. How do I manually create the DB? I also made the change that WarFrog mentioned about. Great plugin CK. Thanks.
Thanks.

How do I get the bb-attachments folder above the webroot? I have it in the HTML folder presently. Also my HTML is the highest root at GoDaddy. Can we work around that CK?
Thank you.

Got it working till the point I see a red X where the image or link to the image should be in the post. Did what WarFrog suggested changing the "_" to "-" and it got me to this point.
Thank you.

Hey CK. How do I fix the red X issue. I do see the images in the folder. So they are uploading.
Thanks for all you do.

Got it working finally. Created the table in the database and it is working now.
Thanks _CK_ for the great plugin.

For all those experiencing problems with table creation: just add

global $bb_attachments;

right before the first mention of $bb_attachments variable.

The code then should look like this:
```
<?php
/*
Plugin Name: bbPress Attachments
Plugin URI: http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bb-attachments
Description: Gives members the ability to upload attachments on their posts.
Author: _ck_
Author URI: http://bbShowcase.org
Version: 0.2.7

License: CC-GNU-GPL http://creativecommons.org/licenses/GPL/2.0/

Donate: http://bbshowcase.org/donate/
*/

global $bb_attachments; /* <<< Here it is! */
$bb_attachments['role']['see']="read";           // minimum role to see list of attachments = read/participate/moderate/administrate
```
After that please deactivate the plugin and activate it again. The table will be created.

To the plugin author: global $bb_attachments refers to a non-existing variable when bb_attachments_install() is called. This is because the plugin file is include()'d from the function (bb_activate_plugin() in this case), not from the global context. As a consequence, the $bb_attachments array is created in bb_activate_plugin()'s symbol table, not in the global one. The fix is simple — just add global $bb_attachments; to the file.

For those who speak Russian: the explanation and the fix of this bug.

i've tried changing line 90 to add_action( 'bb-post.php', 'bb_attachments_process_post'); , i've created the DB table, and i've tried moving the directory and changing the path - nothing works. nothing is uploading and i'm not getting any errors. i'm on hostgator so there's nothing weird about my setup as far as i know. how can i check what kind of errors are being generated? i'm not sure i have access to the error logs (?)

aha, i found the diagnostic setting. here's the only thing that looks vaguely worrying:
```
disabled functions: dl
finfo_open:   does not exist.
```

First, let me say thanks to you _ck_ for this, and all of your other contributions to the community. You're a blessing to all of us. I've got one minor issue that I've been beating on for a while that I just can't seem to straighten out. I can attach files, except for Word .doc or Excel .xls files. Newer (2007+) .docx and .xlsx files aren't a problem, just .doc and .xls. All other file types (.pdf, .jpg, etc.) work without any issue as well. I've tried adding every MIME type I could think of, and as I want all of my users to have the same upload permissions, I've made the changes at all levels, yet none can upload .doc or .xls. Here's a snip of the code changes I've made.

$bb_attachments['allowed']['extensions']['default']=array('bmp','docx','doc','gif','gz','jpeg','jpg','pdf','png','txt','xls','xlsx','zip');	// anyone who can upload can submit these
$bb_attachments['allowed']['extensions']['moderate']=array('bmp','docx','doc','gif','gz','jpeg','jpg','pdf','png','txt','xls','xlsx','zip');	// only if they can moderate
$bb_attachments['allowed']['extensions']['administrate']=array('bmp','docx','doc','gif','gz','jpeg','jpg','pdf','png','txt','xls','xlsx','zip');	// only if they can administrate

$bb_attachments['allowed']['mime_types']['default']=array('application/octet-stream', 'text/plain', 'text/x-c', 'image/bmp', 'image/jpeg', 'image/jpg', 'image/png', 'image/gif', 'application/pdf', 'application/x-pdf', 'application/zip', 'application/x-zip', 'application/x-gzip', 'application/doc', 'application/docx', 'application/msword', 'application/msexcel', 'application/vnd.msword', 'application/vnd.ms-word', 'application/word', 'application/x-msword', 'application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document');  // for anyone that can upload
$bb_attachments['allowed']['mime_types']['moderate']=array('application/octet-stream', 'text/plain', 'text/x-c', 'image/bmp', 'image/jpeg', 'image/jpg', 'image/png', 'image/gif', 'application/pdf', 'application/x-pdf', 'application/zip', 'application/x-zip', 'application/x-gzip', 'application/doc', 'application/docx', 'application/msword', 'application/msexcel', 'application/vnd.msword', 'application/vnd.ms-word', 'application/word', 'application/x-msword', 'application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document');
$bb_attachments['allowed']['mime_types']['administrate']=array('application/octet-stream', 'text/plain', 'text/x-c', 'image/bmp', 'image/jpeg', 'image/jpg', 'image/png', 'image/gif', 'application/pdf', 'application/x-pdf', 'application/zip', 'application/x-zip', 'application/x-gzip', 'application/doc', 'application/docx', 'application/msword', 'application/msexcel', 'application/vnd.msword', 'application/vnd.ms-word', 'application/word', 'application/x-msword', 'application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document');
