nevermind, i found the issue.

I have a lot of secondary & joinable groups. one of them had a the use VB images off and it affected my ability in the primary user group to upload.

is this a possible bug?

OK, mine works since this update! There are a couple of minor bugs, like thumbnails not rendering properly, but it's good enough for me to use for now. Hopefully when the bugs are fixed I'll be able to turn thumbnails on.

This is great! Thanks so much!

One thing I noticed, which may be that I just didn't pay attention to some part of the instructions, is that I had to go in and manually set each usergroup to a number other than "0" for the number of uploads allowed. What was happening to me is that *I* wasn't able to upload any images, even though I had set admin, my primary userrgroup, to allow 200 uploads. I was a member of an additional user group that, I chose to not have it override the primary group, however, the "0" allowable uploads did in fact override my primary of 200. Once I changed that number to "1" in my additional group, my number of available uploads went back to "200", which was per my primary usergroup.

I hope that made sense.

i'll keep that in mind with the next release
i'll have to redo the permission with the inharitance

I have been unsuccessful in uploading any images. It keeps saying I've already reached my max, similer to #154, but I haven't changed the upload qty from the default of 50.

It's the same for any usergroup who has permission to the mod.

What am I missing?

Hello !

I have recently installed it on my forum, I am useing vBVersion 3.5.4 and after install I tried to upload image and I get this :
Ruler, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

2. Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
3. If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

although I am the admin, plus there is no where where I can see the upload window, and cant find the allow andnot allow upload to user.

there is a control penel in admin control panel --> Vbulletin Options --> VB Imagehosting, but there is no field which allows or not allows the users to have permession to upload or not .

can you please help me in this

kind regards
