Attachment Types

Screen Description

Starting with UniTime 4.1, other files than pictures can be attached to a room. To avoid issues with UniTime trying to show a file as a picture, a new attachment types table have been created.

Attachment Types

These attachment types can be defined on the Administration > Other > Attachment Types administrative page. Each type has the following properties:

Reference: unique reference of the type
Abbreviation: abbreviation of the type
Name: name of the type, e.g., used on the Edit Room page
Image: the file can be displayed as an image (in the IMG element)
Room Picture Type this attachment type can be used on the Add/Edit Room page
Show in Rooms Table: files of this type can be shown in the Rooms table
Show in Room Tooltip: images of this type can be show in the room’s mouse over tooltip

Notes

In the Rooms table, every attachment type that is used and allowed to be displayed will show as a separate column. Files that are not images will show as links (named after the name of the attached file).

Operations

The table can be sorted by any of its columns, just by clicking on the column header and the sorting option that opens.
