I just bought, downloaded, and installed the latest web wiz forums. I configred the upload to work with ASP Upload and *thought* i turned on the ability to upload images (not sure where this setting is actually??). Anyway, when I go to make a post, I can add an image if its already stored on the server, but do not have the option to add my own. If I go into the source of RTE_popup_adv_image.asp and change line 361 to "If not blnImageUpload Then", then I get the upload boxes. Where is this variable being set?? Please help!

You need to make sure your upload settings are correct in the admin area, then use the permissions system to grant users rights to upload in each forum you want uploading in.

Use the Group Permissions section to grant users the right to upload images and/or files.

I granted the administrator account the uploads rights, but still don't see the file upload box when I click the image. Maybe I am doing something wrong....can I grant you admin rights to take a look?

you need ot make sure that the group your users are in, or the default settings, or indervidual user settings are set to allow uploads,

you also need to make sure the setting within the configration is set to also allow uploading.

there are security problems with using the upload system as it opens holes but WebWiz is well built and limits the uploading fercility, and holes.
