Hi @astghik

I cannot thank you enough, that works a treat.

A fantastic temporary solution now my members with many attachments, can now continue to use the attach interface once again.

I guess I will need to keep re-editing and adding this code if the plugin gets further updates.

Once again many thanks.

Hi @radiostv,

As a temporary solution, I can suggest you the following changes.

Put the following code in class.wpForoAttachUploadHandler.php file as shown in the screenshot. The file is located in the wp-content/plugins/wpforo-advanced-attachments/includes/ folder.

$files = array_diff($files, array('.', '..', 'thumbnail'));
$files = array_slice($files, 0, 20);

Appreciate you guys are likely very busy but is there any chance member of the support team can help look at my fault and determine if there is a solution? Maybe look at the database etc?

I understand its a lot of complex work to add the pagination but is there a way you can give an option just stop it from loading what's been previously uploaded and just allow you to deal with the new files you're trying to upload?

Oh and I made a typo above I should have said I have over 4,000 attachment's not 500. This is why the interface is just hanging, no pagination means its trying to load the 4,000+ attachments in the interface preview window.

To prove the point I tested further by creating a new user who had not uploaded any attachments. The interface works fine for the new user and I can upload files without any problems, the interface functions as expected.

The attachment interface bug is definitely happening for members who have many, many photos as in my case and others as it tries to load them all into the interface window.

Hi Guys, sorry to pester you but this problem is now stopping me from adding attachments to new posts.

Personally I've got over 500 attachments uploaded and the interface just takes an absolute age to load if at all, it now sits blank. If I wait over five mins it starts to show previous uploaded photos but is sluggish. This is because its trying to load the whole lot rather than paginate. So I cannot add another attachment as it takes too long.

This is going to stop my whole forum in its tracks as the community is very photo orientated, between the 250 members they are 21,000 attachments. They will all be suffering this problem.

Please help.

Hi radiostv,

I'm sorry but this is not an easy task. We're working around and we'll add it as soon as possible.

Hi three months have passed, I hope you don't mind me asking but is there any update to this request, please?

Adding images is becoming quite a problem for some individuals on my forum and the problem is only going to get worse as time passes and more get added.

For example I have 700+ uploaded and when I try to add another it takes quite a significant amount of time for the interface to load all of them before I can use the interface. As mentioned in post #1, If the interface paginated, this would negate the problem and what's more its logical to do so.

On my previous PHPbb3 forum before moving to WpForo, it was not unheard of for engineers to have individually uploaded 5,000+ images. That s/w paginated the members image library, can you imagine waiting for those to load without pagination?
