[Plone-Users] Attach multiple files to an archetype

[Alain Schoenmakers-2]

Hi All,

I want to attach multple files to one archetype.
A FileField doesn't support more then one file
What other field can be used to solve this ?
AttachmentField ??

Thanx,
Grtz,
Alain

Strange question :-) You can add multiple fields of the same type to your
schema...where is your problem?

Almost certainly, he means he'd like to attach an arbitrary number, i.e. the user decides. RichDocument supports this, and you could re-use its widget for this - the basic idea is that your archetype is Folderish and you let people add Files to it - RichDocument just lets you add thsoe from the 'edit' tab instead of using the normal 'add item' menu.

There seems to be a difference between what ppl write and ppl mean :-)
Anyway ....possibly on could use ArrayField to provide an reasonable UI
support for multiple FileFields.

Well....i'm sorry, it seems i didn't make myselve clear enough but martin
interpreted my question the right way.
I want the user to decide how many documents(files) can be attached.
Adding the to fields to the schema is not an option then.......I will try to
be more specific the next time..

Grtz,
Alain
