Hey guys (and gals?) I'm a newb and I first want to say that Gallery3 rocks! I was wondering how I could go about attaching additional files to an image upload...let me explain. Say I upload the jpeg version of a Vector image (.ai) file and I want to attach the .ai file to the image post as well so that ImageMagick doesn't have to try and read that image file type, it just reads the .jpeg but allows you to have the additional file there if the user wants the .ai file as well. How do I do this? Thanks for your help! |

No, you'd need to create a module for that and right now, that might be difficult without changing core files. There's discussion right now about making changes to make it easier for module writers to add support for other formats.

Ok, thanks nivekiam! Guess I'll settle for hardlinks in the comments.

Another option you could do is put them in a location on the server and modify/create your own theme to have a link there.
You can look up the name of the image someone is looking at, even the album structure (I'm not sure exactly how to do all that yet)
Then if you have your ai files store somewhere in a like structure it wouldn't be hard to create a link to them.
