MyDropzone replaces MyBB's default attachments behavior with a reliable drag and drop solution (Dropzone.js) which uses AJAX instead. Uploading an attachment becomes extremely easy and fast.
MyDropzone adds 1 stylesheet and 3 templates which overwrite the default ones during runtime. Existing templates are not edited nor deleted.
PHP 5.4
MyBB 1.8.0
MyDropzone does not come with many complicated features other than being a neat replacement for the attachments box, and that's pretty much it. MyDropzone inherits all the existing attachments features – except for approving/unapproving, which is not available in the current version. A special mention goes to Imgur.com support which lets your users upload images anonymously to Imgur.com and the generated URL will be added to their messages as soon as the upload finishes.
MyDropzone adds support for posting attachments from quick reply. However, it does not edit any templates, so in order to use this functionality you need to alter templates by yourself. This decision was made because in the past, many lamented that a particular functionality in other plugins was not working while they were using a custom theme and the search and replace routine was not able to find the associated pattern.
If you want to enable your users to post attachments from quick reply, edit your showthread_quickreply template, and add the following variable wherever you want the box to appear:
MyDropzone supports uploading multiple attachments at the same time. Just drag and drop how many attachments you want to upload, and it will handle all of them at once till the maximum limit (which inherits from the attachments system settings) is reached.
This feature is also available on stock MyBB 1.8.19 onwards.
In order to upload images to Imgur, you need to enter a Client ID in MyDropzone settings, otherwise the plugin will fall back to default server uploading.
If you do not have an Imgur.com account, register for free and go to this page to create a new application. Fill the informations and select Anonymous usage without user authorization under Authorization type.
When you have finished, go to this page and copy the Client ID, add it to MyDropzone settings and enjoy.
Imgur.com limits their API usage to 1250 uploads per day. Although this should be ok with most of MyBB boards out there, if you are running a big board (100k+ users) you may want to switch to normal image handling. For more informations on limitations imposed by Imgur.com, visit this page.
Due to the fact that MyDropzone does not edit templates, I have added a notice to the mydropzone_attachments_new template informing users that their images are posted to Imgur. If you are not willing to use this feature, delete the corresponding HTML you can find in the template.
You can completely customize MyDropzone's appearance by tweaking with its templates (MyDropzone Templates Group) and its stylesheet (mydropzone.css). Support will be given when possible.
MyDropzone is compatible with MyBB 1.8.0+ and PHP 5.4+. Browser compatibility is listed on Dropzone.js documentation.

This loads nothing but the post_attachments template as it does in New Reply, New Thread, Edit Post, etc.. Once you style the attachment box, quick reply automatically inherits the same styling.{$attachbox}
Multiple attachments simultaneously

Hi, this is not fixed yet. I have planned to do a major rework of MyDropzone after BankPipe beta 7 and Flyover 2.1 are out, in some weeks.
MyDropzone 1.1 has been repackaged
MyDropzone has been repackaged and it's now working on newer MyBB versions (up to the latest, 1.8.21). The previous release was reported to be faulty on MyBB 1.8.20+, thus why the plugin has been repackaged with an updated version which makes it compatible with jQuery 3.
The plugin's version has not been changed. A new version is planned in the near future which will add functionalities.
If you have MyDropzone 1.1 currently installed on your board:
uninstall MyDropzone 1.1. If you have a custom style, save your templates beforehand
delete jscripts/rules.js and jscripts/dropzone.js
upload the new version
install and activate from the Plugins panel.If you do not have MyDropzone 1.1 installed, you can skip the first two steps.
MyDropzone 1.2 is out
MyDropzone 1.2 is outMyDropzone 1.2 is now available. Changelog:
added an "Insert into post" button which makes it easy to include any attachment into the current post the "remove" button has been moved to a handy cross icon in the top left corner of each attachment uploaded attachments will show the thumbnail if available
fixed an issue with the usage quota being messed up if switching from KB to MBTo upgrade:
uninstall MyDropzone. If you have a custom style, save your templates and stylesheet beforehand upload the new version and replace the old files install and activate MyDropzone from the Plugins panelNote that templates must be updated in order to let the new version work.
How do I remove the "Insert into post" link?
I also don't see this?
Whoops and this should go "Images are uploaded to Imgur.com and automatically added to your message. " as we're not using that service.

MyDropzone is not demo'ed here, MyBBoost does not use it at the moment. Styling is up to your preference.
To remove the "insert into post" link, open mydropzone_attachment_add template and find:
To remove "Images are uploaded to Imgur", find and remove the following code in the same template as before:
To remove the "insert into post" link, open mydropzone_attachment_add template and find:
<a href="javascript:void(0)" class="insert">{$lang->mydropzone_insert_into_post}</a><a href="javascript:void(0)" class="insert"></a>To remove "Images are uploaded to Imgur", find and remove the following code in the same template as before:
<span class="dropzone_images_external">
<img src="images/icons/photo.png" />
{$lang->mydropzone_images_external}
</span>
How do I get my uploader to look like yours with the graphic and "Attach photos, videos or documents by selecting them " and link?
