Issue Summary

In order for this module, which is a great idea btw, to really be usable to a large number of people, consider making it compatible with core Drupal module "Upload". My theory is that the majority of Drupal users use the core (aka default) "Upload" to attach files to nodes.

Comments

#1

Agree, it would be great if the module added another checkbox next to the list checkbox that forces that file to download.

#2

Noted, but don't hold your breath. File Force was always sort of a weird module in that I wrote it despite never really having the need to use it myself. Until I do have a need, I'm probably not going to work on it any time in the future. If someone else wants to make a patch, though…

#3

Title:file force might want to consider working with core Drupal module: Upload» Compatibility with core Upload module

Always possible to just add /download to the path yourself via custom theming.

@mcrittenden
Thats a good idea but i would like to enable the feature on a per file basis, not by mime type or any other programatic method.

Hi guys. Sounds like a reasonable request, I'll put it on my list :)

Version:6.x-1.1-beta3» 6.x-2.x-dev
Status:needs work» patch (to be ported)

And voila, I added a settings page under admin/settings/file-force where you will be able to pick theme functions that you want to override with file_force links.

Note that if you have those functions overridden by a theme already, selecting that function in the admin screen will have no effect (more details coming up in the readme).

Enjoy :)))

PS. I'm on a remote PC with no CVS access right now, I'll post another update when this is uploaded! (hence the weird status)
