[Slashcode-general] attaching files/content to stories

[shane <sh...@lo...>]

Ya know what would be cool? Being able to embed Template toolkit  
logic within a story text. ie

start new story
add content, save it, don't queue to show.
edit it later, upload file(s) into said story.
then when you edit the story

blah blah content content...
[% IF !user.is_anon %]
  Attached files:
  <ul>
   <li><slash-tag></li>
   <li><slash-tagforfile#2></li>
</ul>
[% END %]

then you could have story content show only for logged in users, or  
only for subscribers, etc etc.
