Do not use the inline function, just plain attachment.

No problem.

Maybe we can move the posts about the attachment problem to the bug report board?

So you:
1) created a post with an attachment,
2) edited the post adding an attachment,
3) the second one was not saved?
Or did you edit it two times?

1. I created a post with two inline attachments.
2. I edited the post, deleted one attachment and attached another instead. The second, not changed attachment disappears after saving the changes.
3. After you tried to understand what happened (successful I hope  ;)  ) I edited the post, deleted both old attachments, attached two new ones. This worked.

4. Today I wanted to change one of the attachments again, repeated step 2 from above. Same result: The old attachment disappeared.

I can delete both attachments and upload both again, that will help for the moment. But it seems to be still a bug.

meh... I guess it's again the backward logic for deleting attachments that is affecting the result. :-\

Can I?

Edit: I fixed the post. It is strange:

Whenever I edit a post (no matter which), the attachments disappear from the attachment list under the editor. When I save my changes, the attach BBC is still within the post, but the attachments aren't linked with the post any more so they can't be shown. I have to edit the post again, delete the BBC inside it, attach new images and set new BBCodes for them.

Now it looks correct.

It's official: I hate attachments. I'll lobby to remove them from 2.0. LOL

Why not? If files / images can already be display via other ways that is. :P

Would it be possible to "attach" them the same way as a link to a website inside a post?

If I would use ElkArte 2.0.0 right now, I would love to attach a file with the bbc [file][/file]. When I click the editor bbc button for this, I should be asked for the file on my computer, ElkArte should upload it onto the server and create the bbc for me. The file should then appear inside my post automatically where the code is when I publish my post.

To remove the file I would edit the post, remove the code. When I save the change, ElkArte should look for the file and remove it from the server.

I think @Spuds posted somewhere wondering about the preview not showing the attachments, not they are there again! :D
