Thread: Managing Attachments

Yes, I've got the same problem
Greg

I tried to send a "PM" to Neil, Mr U-Beaut, our benevolent director and couldn't so have sent an email to him to ask Steve the Computer Guru to assist....

I had the same problem about 2 hours ago so it seems to be ongoing

Same here

Do you guys still have the problem? I've been back twice and used "edit" to attempt to add the pictures, but still no luck. It's been 17 hours now....

Cheers, Vann.

Yes, same answer when I tried again this morning.

I am surprised that we have not had an answer and/or explanation for the problem.

Sorry folks been away for the last few days with Son and Granddaughter from Houston who I haven't seen for over 3 years.

I will get Steven to have a look at this problem which has been brought to my attention by Bushmiller. There doesn't appear to be a problem with anyones permissions so I'm at a loss.

Steven is away in Europe at the moment so it may take a little while to get it fixed.

It is basically me, DavidG and Christos moderating at the moment and hard to keep up with everything. If there is a problem please post then report the post and it should get seen and dealt with a lot quicker.

My apologies for any inconvenience caused hopefully we'll have a reasonably quick fix soon. It's around 10:54 there now so should get a quick response if he's available.

Cheers - Neil

I have just tried a number of test posts of pics using Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Opera and can't duplicate the problem uploading from either computer or from url's. So definitely at a major loss.




Theoretically if you can post one of those then you should be able to post a pic.

Have you tried replying to a post?

Thanks Neil.

I looked at reporting the post, but the report post window states in no uncertain terms: "Note: This is ONLY to be used to report spam, advertising messages, and problematic (harassment, fighting, or rude) posts." and I noted that the "ONLY" is in capital letters, so I thought I'd better not.

Cheers, Vann.

Yes (refer this very post).

I can even start new threads (I started this one). I (and some others) just don't appear to have permission to manage attachments.

Cheers, Vann.

Yep, me too.

I can start a new thread, but click on the "Manage Attachments" button to add a pic and get the dreaded "you are not permitted . . . "

I love computers . . . when they work!

I initially used the "report a post" facility and as Neil mentioned he could not see any reason why I could not post pix. However, I then became aware that Vann and the rest of you have had similar issues and pointed out that there was a common problem rather than one specific to me. Clearly, he is looking into it. It will be resolved.

Regards
Paul

I just tried it from Opera/WIN 10, I can attach photos or video with no problems but attachments tells me I don't have permission.
