No offense to it's author, but after fighting with page_attachments to get a previous commit that won't break 0.6.9 working on my dev and production servers, I won't be using page_attachments again. Paperclipped is much easier for managing assets, eveything is much more organized, the content is searchable and you sort by media type. And on top of it all you don't have to create a content page for storing all your assets and links to images are just as simple as Adam manetioned: . IMHO, page_attachments was good for it's time and filled a need for asset management, but with paperclipped now available I won't be using it on any future projects. ~Nate ___ Radiant mailing list Post: Radiant@radiantcms.org Search: http://radiantcms.org/mailing-list/search/ Site: http://lists.radiantcms.org/mailman/listinfo/radiant

What was your problem with non image files? Paperclip handles those pretty well now and paperclipped is getting better... keith On Jan 6, 2009, at 7:17 PM, Jose Hales-Garcia wrote: On Jan 6, 2009, at 9:41 AM, Adam van den Hoven wrote: Ok, maybe this is cheeky but, paperclipped would probably work better for you.

Re: [Radiant] Passing dynamic values to page_attachment tags
I might also mention that the page_attachment tags are there for convenience only. There's no reason you can't use the bare path to the file in your markup.
