As the title somewhat hints, I think that an upload progress bar would be a nice idea, because then you would know how close you are to being finished with the upload, because the suspense kills me.
An "upload progress bar " for the resource sections or the forum?
The former may indeed be included when Ralle finalizes and releases the new resource sections (no promises though). The latter might require a substantial modification of the vBulletin shell: once again, only the Chieftain himself can do that and it could be rather tricky.
Donut, yes sort of, but not so much, but I was talking about the Manage Attachments, because with the Pastebin and Resource Section, you can tell where you are by looking at the bottom of IE, but I figured it would require a bit of work, just thought it might be an alright idea
Indeed: attachment uploads are (more or less) "blind" in IE. If your connection provides a good transfer rate, most uploads should be smooth and relatively quick. If you are stuck with 56k, you'll need extra patience.
As stated earlier, only Ralle could implement such a feature. We'll just have to wait to hear what he has to say about it.
A progress bar for attachment uploads would be great, sometimes when I have tried to upload big files and the site has been a bit slow it could take ages where I had no idea how much of the upload was done, of if it was even properly uploading.
Exactly my problem, also I sometimes forget to change sizes on pictures or convert them to jpeg or other format that works, and it takes forever for it to end up not working, I was wondering if you tried uploading something that is the wrong file if it could pop up right away, and say you cannot upload it rather than waiting forever for it to not work
From what I understand, it may be possible to create such a feature, but it would be bugged: existing "upload progress scripts" measure activity site-wide, not for any specific user or thread.
Ralle or Samuraid might provide details and indicate if any modifications could be made to apply or implement an upload progress indicator here at our Hive.
For my own part, no problems: uploads are usually smooth and speedy.
I wish I could say the same Wolverabid, but I am guessing your upload speed is much faster than my download speed, and I thought this would be a nice implementation to further comfort THW users
