I agree.
If it’s that easy to add upload capabilities to the Write tab, it should be featured prominently.
Many users have asked for this.

Re: Upload files during writing a new article
THE BLUE DRAGON, I’m sure that I made a mistake, so I’ll describe in detail what I did:
1. Went to Admin -> Preference and named custom field 3 ‘file_upload’
2. Changed all ‘custom-7’ to ‘custom-3’ in the code you gave.
3. Placed the code in lib/txplib_head.php (function pagetop($pagetitle,$message=”“))
4. Reloaded Write page… and nothing happened.
EDIT:
I found the mistake. You code should be like this:
<script type=“text/javascript” src=“textpattern.js”></script>
<script type=“text/javascript”>
$(document).ready(function(){
$(“label[for=‘custom-3’]”).replaceWith(“<label for=‘custom-3’>File ID # [<a rel=‘upload_file’ href=’/textpattern/index.php?event=file’>upload</a>]</label>”);
$(“a[rel=‘upload_file’]”).colorbox({width:“95%”, height:“95%”, iframe:true, overlayClose:false});});
</script>
But.. It doesn’t work as I need. After clicking ‘upload’, the iframe opens where I see the Files tab.

That was the point, to open the Files tab or whatever page,
inside or outside txp without geting out from the Write tab in a lightbox instead of in a new window/tab.
You and other users can now upload/delete/manage the files.
About your privacy question, sorry I don’t know how to help you.
But at least you got one thing to work ;)

Re: Upload files during writing a new article
THE BLUE DRAGON, thank you very much.
I think I will try to use something like that – http://plugins.jquery.com/project/MultiFile/ and integrate it with files/image system in TextPattern.

Re: Upload files during writing a new article
For images try jbx_multiple_image_upload 0.4 or ebl_upload
For files try to integrate the uploadify script

Re: Upload files during writing a new article
THE BLUE DRAGON, I really don’t know how much I will say you thank:).
I’ve got a problem with jbx_multiple_image_upload 0.4, I installed the plugin, activated it.. and coudn’t find any place where the plugin appeared:). Only settings in Extension.
About uploadify – I have already downloaded this script (and other scripts, trying to choose the best one).

Re: Upload files during writing a new article
about jbx_multiple_image_upload,
log into your site using FTP and check out if there is a folder name “upload” into your “images” folder
and if it’s containing the plugin script files.
if it’s there, so you should see the new upload form in the Images tab.
if there is no folder name “upload” into “images” so deactive the plugin, remove it and install it again
in hope this time it will work and create the folder for you with the files inside it.
You will notice that jbx_multiple_image_upload also use the uploadify script.
For me the plugin doesn’t work because I’m getting security errors while uploading, but for others it is works good!
