Hello,

I'm experiencing a bug with attachment settings. (I think its a bug)
When I'm adding the permission 'Allowed to post Attachments' to a group, and then save the forum -> go back to forum permissions it is back disabled..
It doesn't matter what I do, it won't stay on enabled.. Sad

Reno
Can you printscreen the permissions you're setting?? It works fine for me.
Hello,

Here is the screen:

[attachment=21572]

Thanks for your reply!
And you're sure the user is actually in the group you're editing?? Because it's enabled by default for the Registered group, and will be enabled by default for new usergroups you make too...
Hello,

Well actually I edit the forum permission per group.
I go to the forum permissions, edit the permissions of a group and then save the content. (I don't touch allowed to post attachments at all, if I edit another setting, save the whole page and then check if all settings are right that setting is again disabled...)
This only happens when I edit the group permissions manually. If I set to group default permissions it works fine.., This is a weird case.

Thanks for the time youre spending on my problem,
Reno
So, you're editing forum permissions and usergroup permissions here...?? If you've got custom permissions on forums, that'll override the usergroup permissions. A specific permission won't be set to a different value when you go back to it after saving it.
Well, I will make a vid tomorrow to show you. However, it stays verry weird.,

It set itself back after a saved the content.

I will list here what I've did:

1. I open in ACP the 'Test Forum'.
2. I go to Permissions.
3. I click on set custom permissions.
4. I disable Delete own threads (allowed to post attachment is still enabled).
5. I save the 'popup'.
6. I save the whole page.
7. When I'm looking back to the permissions of the same group, allowed to post attachments is disabled.
8. No matter what I do, it stays on disabled.

Sorry for my bad english, I'm actually Dutch.

Hmm, OK, actually I can reproduce that... that's weird, I'll look into it.
Okay, I thank you very much for your great support!

Hello,

I've just made a video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qo_5BfCpHbM

I am really really sorry for the bad quality, I have no idea to increase it:$
(I had also some problems during the video with my comp)

Only the first 1:30 minutes are necessary.

Sorry for this bad quality but maybe you're able to see the setting reset itself.

Reno
Is there a fix found yet?:$
