Hi,
I have read your information but I am unable to add instructions in the "add new post"/"add new photo" (the ajax window that appears).
Is it possible to add instructions there?
(I have a "not latin characters based" website and people keep uploading photos with greek characters in the filename (e.g πατατα.jpg) which is causing problems).
GREAT plugin by the way.
Yes, the plugin is supposed to allow you to add content using the regular methods. Basically, this just creates a new post type, so adding images, files, text, videos, etc. can be inserted into the post content area (just lik you could with any other post).
There is no AJAX window to add a new instruction - it takes you to the instructions section, and there's a "Write Instruction" area - exactly the same as the "write post" area. Do you mean you can't upload an image when you click the "Add Image"icon? (That shouldn't be affected, either.)
I don't know if the Greek characters are causing the issue - but it's a possibility.
Have you tried deactivating your theme and your plugin (and reactivating one at a time) to see if something else is conflicting?

Please forget my previous message and allow me to clarify my thoughts.
"Posts" => "Add new" => "Add an image" button, a new window appears where we upload images. Can we add "instructions" there?
Thank you for your fast answer!
Oh, I see! You want to add the instruction directly into the media-upload.php file.
No, the plugin can't do that (interesting idea, though, I'll have to look into it.) The media-upload.php file is set to pull information from the *parent* page (so it can associate itself to the post you're on). The variables for the instructions are not passed, because the coe for the popup window isn't set to grab them and pass the info to the popup, therefor it won't show.
I'd have to do some custom scripting to force the media-upload.php file to recognize newly-passed variables and plop them into the popup.
Like I said, interesting idea though. I'm currently updating/testing the plugin for WP 3.2 - I may toy with this idea a bit for the next release. (No guarantees though - I already had a big to-do list, but I'll see if I can't work it in.)
