Double attachment check MOD added |
Quote |
Because we are slowly getting more and more attachments, it surely will happen that a file gets posted more than once. Our attachment mod didn't have a functionality to check this, but I added another mod to prevent this.
You will be informed if you try to post a file that already exists.
The problem of this is that this will only affect files that will be posted from now on... I will try to extend it over the already posted files, but not sure if that will work...
The file check is done thru MD5 checksums, so the check will work with different filenames too ^

I have finally gotten the script for adding already posted files into the double file database.

Because some users seem to have problems with it,
if you now try uploading an already existing upload, it will give you a link to it,
that you can include in your post.
I'm sorry, it is not possible to crosspost attachments, but I think this is better than having to search for them.
Hope you appreciate at least this much.

Well it certainly reduces the maintenance required by the database and over all storage capacity. When the Seagate HDD's featuring the HAMR(Heat Assisted Magnetic Recording) are released to the market in the next 2-3 years, they will START at 50TB capacity (That's Terra bytes, 1000GB to the TB) Needless to say storage will not be as much of an issue as database integrity will be.
The link is a cool idea

It can be labeled differently, it will still work. Of course, if you convert it to a different format, it won't, as image information is lost when converting.

Ah, so that's what that was. So I guess when I add attatchments it most likely means I am the first to share that picture on LAH?
On an unrelated note, why does Firefox think 'attatchment' is not a word? <.<

Because you have a 't' too much, it's 'attachment'
