Upload pictures directly from node (not from EDIT page)
Howdy, i followed the support list for some time, but this is my first post, so first of all my big up to all the people who use their for making Drupal a better place :) My support question: Upload pictures directly from node (not from EDIT page) can anyone tell if there actually is a way to let users upload/attach images to posts (nodes) directly from the node page? Now all (?) the image modules require users to go through the EDIT form. What i mean instead is the very classic/basic "upload an image" field *directly* on node page. The closest thing i found is the Image_tab.module: it adds an "add images" tab to the desired nodes. Still i reckon the easiest thing for users is the upload form on node page. Also the module is still cvs and not finalized for 4.7 yet and quite buggy... Please, any hint greatly apreciated! Cheers, Marco
Hi, Take a look at the image_attach module which is a part of the image module. Gordon. marcob wrote:

This still only works from the node-edit page. The closest I got, is by using clipper and then render the attached nodes with/in the theme. Clipper allows you to 'glue' nodes together (relations). So It also allows you to clip an image to a story. Each story will then come with a link 'add new image to this story'.

Has anybody put any effort into being able to import directly from .odt (openoffice) files? I was doing some screen shots in a howto doco for a customer the other day, and I saw a snippet on the net that the .odt files are actually just .zip files. Simply rename them, and you can open them in and zip tool. I opened up my little doco, and sure enough, there was 7 .png images, and some other stuff, and an xml doc. Could we massage one of the import modules to allow uploading a .odt file, taking the images contained within and creating image nodes from them, then linking in the appropriate place in the text? Blammo, quick uploading of largish documents, including images. The XML looks a bit tricky (not that I know XML), but there would be php tools/ways to just grab the text, and the images were well indicated in the XML I looked at. Any thoughts? Simon

This is rather OT. there are server tools that may help you with conversion of ODT to HTML, that might be tied to Drupal Bèr
