Come together with the global Drupal community in Rotterdam, 28 Sept – 1 Oct 2026. Sessions, contribution, connection, and Early Bird savings until 8 June.Hi,
As it stands, only when a user creates a new forum topic does it allow attaching a file using the built in upload functionality in drupal 4.5.0. However, I would also like it so that when someone comments on the forum topic they can upload/attach a file to their comment. This seems like a one line solution, but I just don't know how to do it.
Thanks,
Farsheed

beginner commentedI have a patched version of comment.module that does that. I'm about to create a project to host this module.
Strangely, at this stage, I am not sure who the author of the patch is.
I'm attaching the diff between the 4.6.6 comment.module, but to work, it also requires another module that I am going to commit to cvs.
I wonder if a patch similar to this one could find its way to cvs for Drupal 4.8.

beginner commentedOh! I just found out the comment_upload project I was referring to:
http://drupal.org/node/37197
http://cvs.drupal.org/viewcvs/drupal/contributions/modules/comment_upload/
But it seems it was developped for Drupal 4.7 only, and the version I have is for Drupal 4.6. I think it's John Hwang who backported it for Drupal 4.6.
You need three files for Drupal 4.6 which I shall attach successively:
comment_upload.module comment_upload.mysql and comment.module
