More tips on how the plugin works in tw
Only files listed as an attachment at the bottom of a page are captured by this plugin.
That means that images that have been uploaded through the "Upload picture:" option on the edit panel or uploaded to an image or file gallery and only linked to on the page will not be included. Other types of files (other than images) uploaded in the edit panel will be included because they appear in the list of attachments.
Would produce on this site: Incorrect parameter fileId
The fileId can be the ID of a file or an archive.
If date is specified, the archive with the closest smaller creation date will be linked. The format of the date is described here. If the date parameter is specified with no value, it will use the last date specified in the page.
