[Tikiwiki-users] Use file galleries for wiki attachments

[Alessandro D. <ale...@ie...>]

Hello,

I tried using the "Use file galleries for wiki attachments" function after 
finding the following description in a forum entry:

http://tiki.org/tiki-view_forum_thread.php?comments_parentId=42439

"If you activate the wiki page attachment option, a file gallery is 
automatically created for each wiki page. You can attach the image files to the 
page directly, then use the {img attId= } or other syntax to display them in the 
page."

This is all clear but when I activated the "Use file galleries for wiki 
attachments" and then went to the file galleries area, I could not find a way to 
access the file galleries created for a number of pages (as reported by the 
"since your last visit..." function)

I logged out of tiki and logged back in.

When I tried to attach a file to a page which tiki told me it had created a file 
gallery for, the operation failed with the following error:

"Handling actions of plugin "attachments" failed."

When I disabled the "Use file galleries for wiki attachments" function, I was 
able to add an attachment to the wiki page.

Next, I reactivated the "Use file galleries for wiki attachments" function.

Then I tried to attach a file to the wiki page. The file I had just attached was 
not listed and when I tried to attach a file the operation ended with the same

"Handling actions of plugin "attachments" failed." error

Last, I disabled the "Use file galleries for wiki attachments" function. When I 
went back to the test page, the attachment I had added when I disabled the "Use 
file galleries for wiki attachments" function, was displayed again.

Are the "Use file galleries for wiki attachments" function and the attach file 
functions incompatible?

I am running tiki 8.3

Please note that the first time I enabled the "Use file galleries for wiki 
attachments" function, when I went to my test page, I just clicked on the 
"attachment" button but did not actually add a file (tiki reported that it had 
created a file gallery for the page).

Also, note that I cleared the tiki caches after I enabled the "Use file 
galleries for wiki attachments" function the first time.

Thanks for your help in clearing up my confusion.
