Long Display of %TYPE% in Template.

    EG,

    I see where the plugin code gets the mime type in eg-attachments-public.inc.php

    /**
		  *  get_type() - Try to get type of document according mime type
		  *
		  * @package EG-Attachments
		  * @param  string 	$mime_type		mime type of the attachment as stored in the DB
		  * @return string					readable type of the attachment
		  */

    However, when using the %TYPE% value in a template, I get the following long formats. What’s the source/cause/explanation of the following? (I am simply hoping for the 3-4 character file extension.)

    • (.docx) (21 kB, OPENXMLFORMATS-OFFICEDOCUMENT.WORDPROCESSINGML.DOCUMENT)
    • (.pptx) (148 kB, OPENXMLFORMATS-OFFICEDOCUMENT.PRESENTATIONML.PRESENTATION)

    Bon Week-end!

  • EG-Attachments is a great plugin, but I’m having the same problem… If the format descriptions can not be editable, at least it would be great to have one value (something like %EXTENSION%) to show the extension instead that long descriptions.

    Hi

    The new version 2.1.1 allows now to display the mime_type, or a file_type, or file extension.

    So you can display a short type rather than the full mime_type.

    Emmanuel.
