Question Problem with file upload COM_KUNENA_POST_ATTACHMENTS_NOT_ALLOWED

Dear Kunena-Team,

first, I would like to thank you for the really great forum platform you provide.

In my JOOMLA 3.4 platform (Kunena 3.0.4) I experienced that when posting messages with attached files I got the error message COM_KUNENA_POST_ATTACHMENTS_NOT_ALLOWED and the files were not attached (messages sent, anyway).
I searched a bit and found the line
if (empty(KunenaFactory::getConfig()->image_upload) || empty(KunenaFactory::getConfig()->file_upload) )
in libraries/kunena/message/message.php (line 1400)

Since the settings for my system were that file attachment was allowed but image attachment was not, of course I got the message in just the next line when uploading a file. Maybe you could consider replacing || by && here?

Best wishes,

Stefan

But you have posted your message in the K 4.0 "defects" category? K 3.0.4 is unsupported; it has been unsupported for more than a year (since March 2014) .

The best way to let us know more about your problem is to provide your Kunena configuration report .

OK, sorry for that: this was a typo. It is kunena 4.0.3.

You need to set the setting "Allow File Uploads" to Registered Users or everybody

same for the "Allow Image Uploads" setting

I know That. Thank you. The Point is:

I would like to allow file upload for registered users, but forbid image upload for all. If I make these settings then file upload is not working with a obviously unspecified error message.

Of course I found a way out of this, in the line you indicated. But it might be to have the system work as it seems it should.

Kind regards.

Stefan

I've tested it now. It's a bug. When setting "Allow Image Uploads = Nobody" and "Allow File Uploads = Allowed" you can't upload files.
