Allow attachments and image upload

Hello, the plugin is great. However I installed Sticky Editor, but the image upload button does not show. Here is my website http://www.dpapazov.com, and here is where the plugin is installed: http://www.dpapazov.com/ can you please advice what might be the problem.

Thanks for the input however that didn’t help. What ever it did rendered it useless, but hey we’re getting closer.

Hi Dom,

Thanks for the feedback!

I know its not the perfect solution, but in some situations it can be useful, such as uploading question and answers from other platfors and needing to add images in answers as admin because so far you cant edit answers from the backend!

I think it would require some programming done to allow the function to only upload rather then enabling the whole WP inter media dialogue.

I wish I had the programming knowledge to implement the solution, but we are all on the lookout and soon there should be a solution.

Regards,

Any one tried this solution and whats their feedbacK?

I tried this solution at my website here: http://www.dpapazob.com but the image upload button did not appeared. What might be the problem? Thanks.

Sorry the website is: http://www.dpapazov.com/аларма

I know what you want. However, currently our plugin just supported to allow admin possible to use the Media button.

You can try to add the following code to the functions.php file

if ( current_user_can('contributor') && !current_user_can('upload_files') )
    add_action('admin_init', 'allow_contributor_uploads');
function allow_contributor_uploads() {
    $contributor = get_role('contributor');
    $contributor->add_cap('upload_files');
}

Or

if ( is_user_logged_in() && !current_user_can('upload_files') ) {
       add_action('init', 'allow_user_uploads');
   function allow_user_uploads() {
       $users = get_users();
       foreach ( $users  as $user ) {
           $user->add_cap('upload_files');
       }
   }
}

Hope this helps !

It’s old version of DW Q&A. Currently, the DW Q&A have supported to allow insert a image link to the question or answer.

Insert image URL is very annoying…
Most of us have images saved on our local PCs…
Why don´t you allow upload image form local PC?

Because, some issue about security, Hacker can upload the virut. If you want to allow upload image form local, we are ready to help you as a custom work with a charge of fee
In case that you are still interested in the feature, please kindly let us know, we will check and estimate the time.

How do I get more info on the fee for this? URL’s for images are really frustrating.

Yes, I know your feel while using the URL for images. If you want to allow upload image from local, we are ready to help you as a custom work with a charge of fee (about $30). We will create plugin compatible with the DW Q&A and help you resolve this issue. If you agree, you can send me username & password of your site fỏ further checking.

Hello @Dominic…

I think that image upload from local and the option to upload attachments are two big main features missing…
90% of users usually have their images in local pc and using URL to paste images is ver annoying…
90% of users usually need to upload files (word, excel, pdf, zip, rar)…but the can´t
I don´t know why DesignWall defers adding those features…They are so important!
If you add those features you will beat all other Q&A and Forum software out there!

Meanwhile, how much can it cost me to have those 2 features added as a custom work?

Thank you very much!

@Dominic – Where do I send the info to you? Email?

At the moment, the plugin does not support to upload the image and file as you mentioned here. However, If you want to upload the image, I have customized an extension to help you upload the image from local. we are ready to help you as a custom work with a charge of fee ( about $50).
In case that you are still interested in the feature, please kindly let us know, we will check and estimate the time.

About the extension to upload the file, we will check and discuss it.

@Dominic Hi, I need this custom work done please. I sent an email.

At the moment, the DW Question & Answer pro has supported to upload the file and image.
