Fileupload in the forum

[NBroenner 7]

Hallo,

could you please add an option to upload files of any kind in the forum. This could be very usefull for printer / cura settings or other stuff (.stl, .gcode ....).

Thanks and regards,

Nils

Good idea!

Great idea, thanks.

We added it to the list and we will look into it.

What type of files would you like to add?

.stl

.ini

.gcode

anything else?

And how would you like to have them shown?

Just a download-link or some kind of visual representation?

If you could integrate a mini-viewer of STLs right here on the forum (steal the code from Youmagine) that would be pretty sweet.

As for ini/gcode, maybe it would be cool if the forum could rip the print parameters out and present them in an easily readable table? That would make it easy for people to post their print settings, just upload the file and the forum presents it in a standard way across the site. This could be used in the print upload section as well so that people wouldn't have to fill it in manually.

[Labern 775]

@SandervG: I would not limit the file extension. As a start I would like to have them attached to the post. Later I would agree that some kind of parsing and displaying only certain parts would be good, especially for the extensions, mentioned above by @labern and @IRobertI.

@SandervG: Has this feature already been priorized ? What is the current status ?

Thanks and regards,

Nils
