0001453: Attach files to a Knowledge Base Article

Notes
(0003572) paulh (administrator) 2011-02-10 20:13	agree, the KB needs quite an overhaul really its got somewhat left behind

(0003578) ServerGuy01 (reporter) 2011-02-10 22:04	I'm hoping to have this either added as a plugin or be able to modify code on version 3.62 Im really wairy of upgrading to 4.0 because my sit installation has been customized so much. Is there any way to get this accomplished? I dont believe I will be able to get to 4.0 or above without heavy involvment from the SiT team. Thanks

It would probably be relatively straightforward to be able to add files just as a list to a KB article so we may be able to backport/supply a patch. My greater goal is to be able to embed files such as images/screenshots into the articles

(0003604) ServerGuy01 (reporter) 2011-02-15 21:06	I was just meaning when 4.0 comes out I will probably not be able to upgrade. The ebst thing i can hope for right now is to be able to attach files to an article. If in the end we are able to insert screenshots that would be great. We are getting to the point where we really need this feature so i hope it finds its way to a programmer :) Also i noted another KB feature that seems to be missing is a print button for the article, you can print the page but its poorly formatted for a printed document. Thanks!

(0003778) Tomse (developer) 2011-05-07 16:31	fixed in GIT:0f2e219 added upload possibility to knowledgebase, added show of files to knowledgebase articles (html.inc.php) reworked download.php to accept download requests from other pages than just incident updates
