Download and upload the plugin to your bbPlugins directory.<br /> 2. Activate the plugin in the bbPress Admin section.<br /> 3. Follow the file movement instructions:<br /> In the "additional-files" folder (inside this Avatar Upload plugin directory) there is several files. These need to be moved elsewhere.</p> <ul> <li> Move the entire "avatars/" folder to your bbPress root directory. (Including the "default.png" inside.) </li> <li> Move the "avatar-upload.php" to the bbPress root directory. </li> <li> Move the "avatar.php" (inside the "my-templates" folder) to your template(s) (theme(s)). Example: Move "my-templates/avatar.php" to "forums/bb-templates/kakumei/" (So it is like "forums/bb-templates/kakumei/avatar.php".) </li> </ul> <p>I hope this helps someone :D </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/avatar-upload-problems#post-18767 Thu, 28 Aug 2008 22:36:11 +0000 budaya 18767@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Hi i suppose to have evrythihng working fine the avatars folder is root, also the url in admin settings points there, and i have permissions to write in tha folder(755), but still get the message(The file could not be saved to the avatars/ folder.) i also took away the @ at avatar-upload.php before the move_uploaded_file to see teh errors but don't get any.</p> <p>please help. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/possible-way-to-upload-image-to-post#post-17968 Tue, 05 Aug 2008 08:37:33 +0000 _ck_ 17968@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>It may have been a one-time PHP internal error dealing with uploads - in the newest 0.1.9 rebuild I put in some more advanced PHP error reporting to list the eight possible errors reported by the OS. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/possible-way-to-upload-image-to-post#post-17967 Tue, 05 Aug 2008 08:03:56 +0000 chrishajer 17967@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Nothing strange in the filename, not even a space.

I might remove that.</p> <p>update: oh wait, BMP is only allowed for admin, no one else has that allowance - so it's not an issue, I forgot I did that. The reason you got "denied mime" is because it's a bug where I didn't add "image/bmp" to the allowed mime types for admin. I've reposted 0.1.9 with that fixed.</p> <p>But that's a strange error I need to explore on the png. Apparently "Error Occurred While Processing Request" is a mysql error? Interesting. </p> <p>Did the filename have any strange characters? Quotes? Apostrophies?

Allow Images plugin. The member needs to link to an image available in the Internet somewhere. If that's not a problem, then that's the way to go. It allows members to insert images into their posts. Pretty easy.</p> <p>2. Attachments plugin. This you have working as attachments now, but you want the image inline, not attached. The newest version is supposed to do that, and I just read this on the plugin page:</p> <p><code>After uploading, an [INSERT] link will appear next to each attachment.</code></p> <p>So, the user needs to upload it first, then go back and edit their post, and click the [INSERT] link. I actually just noticed that: I have the link, but it doesn't work. It seems like a JavaScript error.</p> <pre><code>Error: myField is not defined Source File: <a href="http://www.example.com/bbpress/edit.php?id=2" rel="nofollow">http://www.example.com/bbpress/edit.php?id=2</a> Line: 76</code></pre> <p>&nbsp;<br /> If you cannot use the Allow Images plugin, instead of the Attachments plugin, then you might want to post your concerns on the plugin page, or wait for _ck_ to show up here. The plugin was released early because a lot of people were looking for the inline functionality, and I'm sure _ck_ will appreciate feedback from anyone using it. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/possible-way-to-upload-image-to-post#post-17733 Mon, 28 Jul 2008 03:43:06 +0000 brad_langdon 17733@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Um I don't know really. I tried disabling the allow images plugin but it didn't change anything.</p> <p>I saw an example of a forum with an image in it 15 minutes ago and when I checked it again it just had the attachment so I'm really confused.</p> <p>It was the example on the plugin install or instructions page which ever one it is on. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/possible-way-to-upload-image-to-post#post-17732 Mon, 28 Jul 2008 03:36:21 +0000 chrishajer 17732@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I just installed the plugin and I can attach as well but not inline it.
