    Actually there is a way.

    I have just done it, but in a way this is more like linking text to attachment.

    Check out this thread

    on the first post in Torrent spoilers. I manage to put torrents into the spoilers.

    This has worked for Epi01 and Epi31. I have even deleted the post from which the torrent epi01 and epi31 was attached to. Although this only works if I use Quick Edit to delete the post. But using Advanced Edit to delete the post seems to remove the link.

    then technically u can't because like you have mentioned, you are hotlinking it with text; every attachment is linked with your profile, they are saved there, therefore if you soft delete the post ur attachments are intacted, but if u decide to remove it completely then you have removed it from your profile as well;

    It is possible to put in all torrents in to spoilers :yes: I'm already doing it without hotlinking. Check out all my current threads =D Noasian is right, hotlinking will not work out, in the end, when a mod/admin sees so many deleted post, they will hard-delete it for you. Which results all the hotlinks will no longer work!

    Steps:
    1) Once you've managed too attached things to your post (which is a maximum of 5), except for mods =P[STU="1"]Unlimited attachments by merging posts. -headbang[/STU]2) Go to ADVANCED on your post
    3) Click on the paperclip/MANAGE ATTACHMENT
    3) A rollover window popups and prompt you to browse files for attachments
    4) Browse/select INSERT ALL. This way all torrents attachments will be on the post where you want instead of below your post as attachments! You will see a code like below example:

    [ ATTACH]22489[/ ATTACH]

    [ ATTACH]22490[/ ATTACH]

    [ ATTACH]22679[/ ATTACH]

    [ ATTACH]22804[/ ATTACH]

    [ ATTACH]22806[/ ATTACH]


    5) Remove the paragraphs and put them inside a spoiler. Code will look like below example:

    [ spoiler] [ ATTACH]22489[/ ATTACH]
    [ ATTACH]22490[/ ATTACH]
    [ ATTACH]22679[/ ATTACH]
    [ ATTACH]22804[/ ATTACH]
    [ ATTACH]22806[/ ATTACH][/ spoiler]

    6) For more attachments you will have to ask the mods to do it for you =) Which I've already done that to a few of your threads, gawain187 >,< =P
    Also gathered all torrents @ post #1 of your thread [ame="http://www.dramasian.com/forum/showthread.php?t=43466"][TW-M] K.O.3an Guo - 終極三國 (2009) [31/??][/ame], but disadvantage of this is, all your previous earned thanks (in those posts) will be gone :(

    [STU="1"]Ang..the STU no longer works with more ppl. Only for one ger? Is it possible to add more users again? It use to work o,O I think?[/STU]

    with the [ ATTACH]22489[/ ATTACH] codes, you are already hotlinking as you can see that the link is showing the actual torrent name & the link is the actual unique address of where the file is [ domain/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=23507&d=1254276445 ]

    anything that is a 'shortcut' to a file or address is already a "hotlink"

    Try hotlink yet only with this code [ ATTACH]22489[/ ATTACH] while the torrents are located at other posts? Cause it won't work at all =D

    This code gives you the opportunity/more power too let your attachments to be upstairs/elsewhere/editable instead of downstairs as attachments of your actual post. And put them inside a spoiler tag if want too XP


    Again look into my thread, meaning edit my thread and look closely to my codes without editing, [ame="http://www.dramasian.com/forum/showthread.php?t=52200"][ATV-PM] Shanghai Godfather - 再見黃埔灘 / 中國教父 (1992) [20/20] *COMPLETED*[/ame] All the BT attachments are located at my first post. And playing hide and seek in the spoiler CONTENT =P And using the code [ ATTACH]22489[/ ATTACH] -> is this still called hotlink?


    Doesn't matter how it is called, hotlink or shortcut, I only know it works perfect (all gathered at post #1) and looks very neat, gawain =D =D Again just helping out, no flaming intentions XP


    PS. PM/Let me know when you need my help gathering all your torrents at one post, gawain :yes:

    any shortcut to where the location of file is a HOTLINK, no matter how you do it; just like a shortcut of an icon on your desktop to where the location of file actually is, just a different wording but it is hotlinking
    either way hotlinking or not, good that someone posted a solution =)
