| Description | Fields on catalogues that have attachment support do not work properly for two reasons:
1. Let's say there are three fields with attachment support. What happens is in the first field's attachments, attachment #1 will properly render, but will have one attachment box for each field supporting attachments. So if there are three fields, attachment #1 will have three upload fields. The rest of the fields with attachment support will only have one upload box for attachment #1, but it is not properly rendered; it is rendered by the browser and not Composr's CSS. 2. Attachments flat out don't work. Trying to submit a catalogue entry with any attachments results in an error saying wait for the files to be uploaded, even if all the files have already uploaded. |
| Steps to reproduce | Reproducing this bug... if I upload absolutely no attachments, the catalogue entry submits. If I have any attachments, it will fail saying I need to wait for the files to upload, which they've already uploaded. |

Unfortunately we can't support multiple posting fields, which is a limitation I forgot to document / enforce. It would be really complex to do that. I've added a new issue for it.
In the next RC I'll make it so it won't break, just the additional posting fields will behave like long trans fields.
