I''m Building an application where i need users to be able to upload an image with blog posts, and in another section I need the user to upload multiple images.>From what I''ve read "attachment_fu" is the way to go,but there are no tutorials for it, the main tutorial page is down. I''m New to ROR, and pretty much have a grip on controllers, models and views, but the image uploading thing is greek to me. Can someone point me in the right direction?

It works pretty well and is documented.

Here is some stuff on attachment_fu: http://clarkware.com/cgi/blosxom/2007/02/24#FileUploadFu I''ve decided that the _fu part stands for File Upload and probably not Kung Fu or FuBar. If you search this newsgroup for attachment_fu you''ll see lots of people have questions about it. There is something that is not easy. I''m running into trouble with the simple migration it requires. And I can''t fix it and this group is no help (yet). fredistic --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

I am using acts_as_attachment plugin and its working great. Check it out at http://sphred.com/profile/3-Mel-Frogley or if you want to check it thoroughly then signup first on www.sphred.com and then try to upload/delete/update your image after logging in I have also written a little tutorial on how to use it http://nasir.wordpress.com/2007/10/28/how-to-get-file_column-plugin-working-on-mac-osx/ since we need some other stuff before using it.

Attachment_fu''s code is a lot cleaner too. I''m still using a_a_a in some of our old apps (i had to hack it, so i need to reimplement my changes as they are very specific for our needs), but i plan to switch all of them over to attachment_fu, possibly changing the processor to imagescience if it''s just thumbnailing that''s involved.
