Adding a file to a Forum fails.

[Anthony]

Adding a file to a Forum fails. There is no error, but the file is not uploaded to the Forum.

More info. The file is added when creating a new forum, HOWEVER, if you edit a forum and attempt to add the first or additional file to a forum, the file is not added.

Hi Shane. I believe this means if you go to a forum (e.g. http://localhost:6543/offices/nyc/forums/nyc-personals/) and add a forum topic, then do Attachments, that the file is attached.

It's quite possible that the file *is* attached, but the show_forum_topic.pt isn't calling the macro.

When I upload a file as an attachment to a new forum topic, the file is in fact displayed, although perhaps not prominently enough. It appears just after the tags field.

Marking as incomplete to notify Anthony that we need a confirmation that the file really does not appear after upload.

Re-assigning back to Anthony to note that we need more information.

Shane, I think we can now narrow this down. The bug occurs when trying to attach a file to an *existing* Forum Topic using the edit form. I suspect it's just an omission: the add form got the treatment but the edit form didn't.

See edit blogentry for the chant on storing attachments.
