    Can't attach pictures???

    I can't seem to post pictures through the attachments.
    I get this message:

    I tried on both my Windows 10 laptop using Chrome and Explorer, and my iPad using Safari. The files are JPG.

    I'm clicking advanced, going to attachments, clicking on a picture from my computer, or iPad, clicking upload, and a few seconds later a pop-up half screen shows up stating, I don't have permission...

    I took a look at your account and everything seems fine. I reset it anyway just to be sure but I made no changes.

    I'm not sure why you can't load pictures. I do know that when you log in and do not use the "Remember me" box you could be auto-logged out. That would recreate what you are seeing.

    Found the issue "Enhanced Attachment Uploading" was off. Don't know how that happened, I haven't been in my settings in a while.
    It seems that the attachment page is different though. It now provides thumbnails of the images you've downloaded on this site. Before, I wouldn't get that page. It would just show the file name I loaded for the particular thread I was loading a pic to.



    Enhanced Attachment Uploading:
    Enhanced Attachment Uploading on
    Enhanced Attachment Uploading off
    The forum features an enhanced attachment uploading system that allows you to reuse existing attachments via a drag and drop interface.

    Depending upon the capabilities of your web browser, you may not be able to use the enhanced system. If you experience problems with the interface, try disabling this option.

    I had exactly the same problem & was going to report it until I saw your post.
    I changed my setting & everything works O.K. now.
    This is the second time it's happened to me where I couldn't post attachments. The first time after a week or two I magically could post attachments without ever changing any of my settings. It could be a random software glitch that on a rare occasion will change that setting or we both unknowingly changed the setting ourselves. I tend to think it's the former because even if I did accidentally change the setting I sure didn't change it back the first time since i never knew about the setting until today.

    It's against the rules to have multiple accounts. Give me the user names and I'll get rid of them.

    Before you can add a link or picture you must have 7 posts.

    Hi everyone
    As a new member, I can't attach a picture directly from my PC or tablet.
    Is there a reason?
    Thanks in advance!

    You need over 7 post to get that added to your permissions.
