(Now, enquiring minds - like mine - would like to know, what exactly did you do to make it work again??)

/me off to find the pics she wanted to attach here and there...

While comparing the setup of one of my vBulletin domains with the DTP one, I discovered that DTP had an attachments directory on the server, which I didn't have. So I investigated, and found out that DTP was storing the attachments in files instead of the database. Told vBulletin to fix that, which it did. Tested in this topic and discovered that it was all fixed. Like most things, it's easy when you know what's wrong.

Thanks. Once I worked out that there was a directory called 'Attachments' that shouldn't have been there, it was easy. Of course, as the person who moved all the folders from the old server to the new one, I should have worked that out a lot earlier...

What I don't understand though is why storing attachment as files (presumably in the Attachments directory) didn't work - it should. Or rather, why it didn't work only for non-admins....

If it didn't exist before, how was it "moved"? Or, if it did exist before, why did it stop working?

Still puzzled...

But not complaining! Thanks for fixing it - immediate grumbles from several people after the move shows just how important this facility is to our forum. Thanks!
