whoahorse Posted May 10, 2004 Posted May 10, 2004 Hey all! I am having problems finding the area in the admin section for our forum that allows people to post images. Our forum is http://www.whoahorse.com/forum Thanks! Weezy Quote
TCH-Bruce Posted May 10, 2004 Posted May 10, 2004 2 things to check 1. In the admin of security & privacy you must have the radio button in the (low) security settings to allow images to be posted set to "yes" 2. Make sure you set the uploads folder to 777 permissions Quote
whoahorse Posted May 10, 2004 Author Posted May 10, 2004 2. Make sure you set the uploads folder to 777 permissions Thanks for your post! Where do you find that uploads folder? Weezy Quote
TCH-Thomas Posted May 10, 2004 Posted May 10, 2004 In either cpanels file manager or through an ftp program its the last sub-folder in your forums-folder. Quote
whoahorse Posted May 10, 2004 Author Posted May 10, 2004 In either cpanels file manager or through an ftp program its the last sub-folder in your forums-folder. Thanks! I wonder how I change the settings of it? Weezy Quote
LisaJill Posted May 10, 2004 Posted May 10, 2004 Choose the folder and click the text link (not the actual folder image), to the right you should get a list of options, one is change permission. Just type the numbers you want in the lowest row. =) Quote
whoahorse Posted May 10, 2004 Author Posted May 10, 2004 Thanks Lisa! I did find that 777 thing. Images still not allowing.. WAH! Weezy Quote
