ok, I’ve updated the Extension, my bad. I was testing mostly on a stand alone edit form, and uploading 1 file at a time.

I have come accross something else, that seems to be with Codeigniter but EllisLab don’t seem to think is an issue:

If you post more than one file, EE will upload each file, BUT:
EE renames the file to the same as the first file field, and adds the file extension on the end
eg, first file is billy.jpg, second file is sammy.png, EE will rename sammy.jpg to billy.jpg.png
I’m not not sure what to do as none of the hooks that I can see will allow me to do anything about this.

I could probably write some ghastly file rename script, and rename each file with [field_id]_[timestamp].ext
but that would be… ghastly :(

A fix is available by hacking, comment out

from system/libraries/Upload.php (approx line 993)

Just following up Lee, did the new version work ok for you?

Yes I did - -thank you very much. I should have got back to you but family stuff came up and I forgot. Tell you what would be the icing on the cake - a percentage upload complete indicator, or something along those lines. I’ve got a few euros spare if you’re interested in doing it.

Thanks again
Lee

I’m working on a site that has multiple file uploads via saef right now,

If the project has time left over I’ll see what I can do,

Cheers.
