How message attachments are uploaded, stored and managed on the Sueetie Wall.
Attachments for Everybody¶
The Sueetie Wall supports uploading attachments direct from the desktop. Like message images, file attachments are uploaded prior to a message being posted using the procedure shown below. To display the attachment upload area click on the paperclip icon circled below. After selecting your files click the "Upload Files" button.
Your message attachments are now listed with a delete icon for removal if you change your mind.
As a side note, if you want to upload any images with the message, those are uploaded prior to posting the message as well. Below are screenshots of the process when you're including both images and attachments with a message. There is no required order of inclusion.
The Results
Here are the results for the message demoed with both attachments and images.
Attachment Storage
Attachments are stored in /files/walls/WALLID/USERID. Attachments are displayed using a special Sueetie Wall HttpHandler to include security checks, download statistics and other features. The format of stored attachment files is a 12-character length unique Guid excerpt, followed by the file extension and "attachment." Here's a screenshot.
