Post Problem updating an attachment Quote
Sat:
[*] You can edit your posts again! There is a new edit reason field we ask you to fill out if you do Smile
I just edited this post trying to update the attachment (that's another new and interesting field appearing in edit mode). As a comment in the extra field I entered that the previous version of the attachment had 27 views. After editing I see neither the comment nor the 27 views. I probably didn't do it right, perhaps you could give in the near future a tutorial - e.g. in the rules and faq section?

Using my newfound powers, I can see that you have deleted the attachment then uploaded it again - the summary reads "tried to update attachment - old one was viewed 27 x". The edit summary currently serves to ease moderators' edit reviewing, we may add those summaries to the public view later. Razz

I'm not sure what you've actually tried to do, though. You've deleted the attachment, at that point all the data associated with the attachment (e.g. download count) are no longer available publicly. Uploading a new attachment creates a new entry with 0 downloads, as you already know.

If you tried to "upload new version", you should select it from the disk as you'd do with a regular upload, but instead of clicking "add attachment" you'd click "upload new version" under the corresponding attachment which you want to update.
When I click the button "upload new version" in the "Posted Attachments" part of the edit-screen, nothing happens except for the message "You have to enter values in the 'Add an Attachment' Box" appearing. When I do that (in the "Add an Attachment" part right above the "Posted Attachments" part), I manage to upload the new version of the attachment. Yes, I then deleted the posted attachment - didn't really believe things were going to be ok after this but you have to try something --> another chrome only problem?

Thanks for making a separate thread, this makes tracking and evaluating bugs easier.

Sorry, but I still didn't really understand what you were trying to do. In case you tried to upload a new version of an attachment, the current system makes it a bit complicated. I've attached an image with more detailed instructions.

Deleting and uploading a new attachment is fine too.

Thanks for your clear instruction, I'll try it that way when I have time

Edit:
Just updated again the attachment in this same old post exactly according to your instruction-image above and it workes fine!

Conclusion:
Problem solved, thanks to your tutorial Very Happy

Yeah, I had no idea how it worked as well until a couple weeks ago, when I had to test one of the new mod tools' integration with the attachments handling.

IMO deleting and adding a new attachment is very practical too, but yeah. Razz I've been considering a new UI to manage attachments for a while, but guess I'll be a bit too busy this semester to make huge changes on LAH.

Meanwhile, I can contact Sat to add a FAQ entry for uploading new versions of attachments (as he is better with FAQ wording and stuff), but yeah, I don't really think that it is a very frequently asked question. Razz
