Uploads/file Attachements Ipb 1.1.2

[jayc]

I decided to add IPB to one of my sites, I used the scripting tools in CPanel to do the install.

 

Everything appears to be normal, except that members cannot upload files in a forum.

 

 

When logged in as a member I cannot upload file attachements. When logged in with the admin account it seems to work normally. As a member when I start a new topic or reply to an existing topic the browse to/upload choice simply does not appear.

 

I am having the problem with an IPB 1.1.2 installation.

 

I see that this installation is running 1.1.2 and does not appear to have this problem.

 

I have IPB 1.1.1 running on another site with TCH and do not have this problem

 

Members can upload avitars normally.

 

I tried deactivating and reactivating uploads in the forum permissions. With no luck.

 

Following up on another tip I checked /uploads permissions and they are set to 777

 

Any ideas ?

 

Thanks in advance for all help

When logged into your admin > Board settings > security & Privacy

check to insure you, Allow images to be posted?

I got a tip from the IPB support board, and it worked, you have to edit the group properties and set the size of uploads permitted for each group.

 

Default is 5 megs on admins so that worked out of the box, however default on members is set to zero by default, inclreasing that amount did the trick.

 

Thanks for your suggestion
