Hi,
I know links has the ability to upload a file to the server.
But,
is it possible, that users can attach a file when they do an entry in add.cgi.
This file should then be sent with link_added.eml to the admin!

Hi,

It took a while to get the URL right, but you could use this in your /admin/link_added.eml template.

Just add this, replacing the bits in bold with the field name you want to include.

Code:
<%if Image%> 
    <%config.admin_root_url%>/admin.cgi?ID=<%ID%>&db=Links&cn=Image&do=view_file&id=<%ID%>&Image=<%Image%> 
<%endif%>

That should do the job :)

Cheers

Hi Andy,
does this code work with word or zip files,too.
And is there a way to sent the file without database field, but just as attachment in the admin mail?
Thanks

Yup - it will work with any field / type (i.e image, zip, pdf etc)

Not as far as I know, sorry.
