Next on my list is PageAttachments - so, I installed attachment_fu
and then, I cloned the recent page_attachments from git. I applied
the migration and did the update and restarted the server.
I was able to add an attachment and then another. But the third one
failed. After trying for a bit, it seems that it loads small files
(tried up to 14KB) but larger files (more than 30KB) seem to be not
loading. Any suggestion on what may be wrong?
I found this in page_attachments\app\models\page_attachment.rb:
has_attachment :storage => :file_system,
:thumbnails => defined?(PAGE_ATTACHMENT_SIZES) &&
PAGE_ATTACHMENT_SIZES || {:icon => '50x50>'},
:max_size => 10.megabytes
This tends to suggest that files up to 10MB should be fine? Any
idea what I should look for? (I'm on Windows, running Radiant 0.7.1
on ruby 1.8.6)

I suggest you drop page_attachments in favor of Paperclipped. It's
easier to manage image sizes and mime-types (you can do both with the
settings extension) and page_attachments will prevent you from using
the change_author extension (I got bitten by this one) if you decide
to use it. It's also much easier to use in day-to-day operations with
its bucket that will allow you to upload and attach images from the
same place.
Hi Nate,
Thanks for the advice. I'm tempted to use PageAttachments firstly
because I was using it earlier :) and the site I'm trying to do is a
technical articles site, so it makes a lot of sense to attach images to
the pages on which the articles appear. Admittedly, I've not used
PaperClipped so I"m not sure if that's how it works - but the talk of
buckets (that I've heard elsewhere also) tends to suggest common pools
rather than page-wise attachments. However, I have need for
Paperclipped also for certain types of site-wide needs, but I'm scared
to even start putting Paperclipped and PageAttachments together :P
Cheers,
Mohit.
