Joomla 1.5, modifying content module (article edition/creation)

Question

I would like to ask You for a proper way of modifying Joomla's 1.5 article edition/creation page. What I need is additional field (eg under the editor) which takes a file input, upload the file to a certain folder (after this article was submitted/saved) and put its server path to database (db column already exist).

It is meant to be a title picture, I've already done displaying part, but I don't know how to let users choose and submit the picture themselves.

Answer 1

There are a number of plugins available that will handle this for you. I would just install one of them. See the extensions directory . Search for Attachments to get started.
