Permissions issues with attachements?

[zarish]

Are there some permissions issues with attachements?

 

The reason I ask, I've seen some posts of various areas of the forum with attachments that give the error below:

 

Sorry, you don't have permission for that!

[#10171]

You do not have permission to view this attachment.

 

This is in forums like the Off Topic > Funny forum which I would imagine really shouldn't be a protected forum.

 

Some example posts:

 

I doubt (although I could be wrong) that such would be restricted to VIP+ (waiting on that anyway since I purchased to support the software and site).

FWIW, those posts show that same error even after VIP+.

 

So I think it is just a general attachment permissions or related generic issue.

Is this a site-wide issue, or have you only seen it in the off topic area? Let me know, and I'll take a look at it.

 

EDIT: Fixed off topic section attachments, as well as a few others.
