Hi

What folders require CHMOD permission for Avatars, Uploads, Pictures, Attachments Etc..

vB manual doesn't state!

A good idea is to set them all to 777 including the index.html file inside them.

No need to set the index file to 777 only the folders

Maybe but I know I have problems when the index.html file is 655 so I always set it to 777..

The dirs would be:
signaturepics
customavatars
customprofilepics

You have to create Uploads, Pictures, Attachments of your own and CHMOD the same.

If I upload a pic via URL but choose to reference locally it 'fails to write'

However I can upload attachments etc fine.

aah.. now then, you are most likely using photopost vbgallery?.. if you are don't use reference locally it never works.

I would download the picture first.

No bud, generally if you add a image in a post from a URL.

I have the same issue, you have a choice to insert the image from the URL or to copy the image to your server and reference locally (check box for that - checked by default) - what is happening is that it comes back with an error stating that it is unable to write a temporary file.

If I knew WHERE it was trying to write the file I could check and see if that directory existed and what the permissions were on it. Anyone know???
