How to disable Image Uploading v4.1.4

[LVC]

OK -- tried it

I get Invalid URL message when I paste an image url in the legacy dialogue box

In adminCP, go to Settings | Options | Message Attachment Options and scroll to the bottom.

The last entry is Advanced Insert Image Popup - Enable. If you set it to NO, the old dialogue box will show, which only allows you to do an image reference from a url, not upload an image from your computer.

You should have all your usergroups also not able to use html codes, or you end up with them being able to bypass the bbcode restrictions.

I could be wrong though...

Oh, and in the usergroup options, you can stop them from uploading attachments. That still allows them to use the BB IMG code to show images, but they aren't uploaded (I think) except for maybe a thumbnail if you've enabled thumbnails. Go to Usergroup Manager and edit a usergroup (like Registered Users) and scroll down to Attachment Permissions.

Hope this helps!
