This is definitely useful +1, I would like to see a download counter tho. Something to hook up with the AW stats to get the number of downloads per item or page.

Part of the problem with this wish is that it assumes that attachments must be uploaded to the current page. You can have an "attachment" on a different page if you are prepared to re-structure your site. My solution works using the childpages, countpages and listpages modules.

The following can be seen at my test site at http://vineyard.wikidot.com/childpages

Basically what you have to do is to have a category that holds a dataform with one attachment on each autonumbered page. So…

1) Create a page called childpages. On that page add the following:

[[module CountPages category="attachment" parent="."]]
Attachments on this page: %%total%%
[[/module]]

[[include :snippets:newpage-button
|size=200px
|name=Attachment
|category=attachment
|parent=childpages
|button=Add an Attachment
]]

+++ Attachments

The attachments to this page are shown below:

[[module ListPages category="attachment" parent="." separate="false" prependLine="||~ Date ||~ Title ||" appendLine="||||||~ ||"]]
|| %%date|%d/%m/%y%% || %%title_linked%% - %%form_data{image}%% || 
[[/module]]

2) Create a page called attachment:_template and on that page add the following dataform:

[[include :snippets:image
|image=%%form_raw{image}%%
|width=250px
|float=
|heading=
|caption=
|link=
]]

====

[[form]]
fields:
 image:
    label: Image
    type: file
[[/form]]

3) In your Site Manager -> Autonumbering of pages make the attachment category autonumbered.

4) On your childpages page press the button to add a new page in the attachment category (using the dataform) and upload an image. When you save the page the image will be listed in the attachments list on the childpages page and the number of attachments will have been updated to reflect the new number.
