OK, I know this is an old issue, I have found several discussion on the net about it, but nothing to help me solve this issue. Here it is:

When I am logged in with my usual admin account, when I click on the Upload Image button, in the WYSIWYG editor, I can upload files either from my computer or from a URL.

When I log in as a regular user, I can only upload from a URL.

I want to offer this functionality to my users, but I am at a loss on what to do to activate it.

Any help will be appreciated.

vBulletin 4.2.2 (latest).
php 5.3.3

Usercp -->Settings link --> General Settings --> Message Editor Interface. Every user can set that however they want, and if they don't have it set to WYSIWYG, or they don't click the toggle button in the reply to change it to that, then they won't be using the WYSIWYG and won't get both options.

That's how it is set for my test user.

Also:

AdminCP->Options->Message Attachment Options->Advanced Insert Image Popup: Yes

The only difference between the two tests was that as an admin I used Firefox, and as a user I used Safari, but I just tried Firefox as a user too, no change. No upload from computer, for the plain user.

Interesting! Super Moderators and moderators can upload from computer too.

All groups have the Can Upload Attachments permission, set to Yes.

Where else can that stupid thing be?!?!?!?!

Hmmm!!!

ACP --> Settings --> Options --> Message Attachment Options

What are the last three settings set to there?
Asset Manager - Enable
Asset Manager - Assets per Page
Advanced Insert Image Popup - Enable

Here you go!

That's strange, by all rights then it should be working. If you want PM me a link to the site, a admin account and test user account, and I will see if I can figure it out.

Ozzy, I think there is an issue with php, I am running 5.3.3 and I read somewhere that this version has an issue. I sincerely hope that this is not true, because I doubt my host provider will be willing to downgrade that.

I believe you may be confusing PHP 5.3 and 5.4 ?

Well, I have 5.3.3 all right, but somewhere I read that this may cause issues. I'll have to do some more research on this, it's strange that it works OK for admins, mods and supermods and not for plain members.

For me it is working After I set it to View Attached Images Inline - Yes, full size in both Admin and user mods. I am using only php-5.3.3 only.

I am sorry! It is working only on Opera browser.

Pls Check (http://www.telugudosti.com/showthread.php/10192-Uses-of-Papaya?p=11409#post11409) here on diff browsers

Where is that? In the user "Settings" or in AdminCP?

Nope, it didn't work. I had it to Full size if only one attachment, changed it to Yes Fullsize, didn't work.

Yes It works! Go to Usergroups- Usergroup Manager - Click on Registered Users - in Attachment Permissions
Can Define Arbitrary Styles for Inline Attached Images select YES

And try on diff browsers with Admin and user IDs

I am using 4.2.0
None of the above works.

We still cannot provide images from our computer in PMs.
This is using FF, Opera, Chrome.

Is it on a dedicated server or shared hosting?

only difference in yours and mine is the asset manager enabled, and ive tried both ways with no success. like I said this happened after moving to a new domain, and numerous ppl cant figure it out lol even switching the image processing library didn't work for gd or imagemagik

Well, if no one can figure it out & godaddy is giving you so much issues, maybe it's time to look for a new host. Here's what I'm using atm.
