Hi,

I'm fairy new to Drupal.

I've created a content type for film locations that has Images associated with it.

The idea is for Anonymous users to enter their info and upload associated photos (unlimited quantity).

This works perfect for Admin users (you upload a photo, it shows the busy icon, then displays a thumbnail and gives the option to enter Title/Description for the photo).

I gave Anonymous users permission to Create new content of this type. As an Anonymous user, you can access the form, but the upload button shows no response after the busy graphic.

If the form is submitted, the image has uploaded correctly -- the user was just given no idea that it has uploaded and has no option for uploading more images.

My guess is that it's a permissions issue--the user has permission to upload the image, but for some reason doesn't have permission to view the image they've uploaded.

The form is simply Taxonomy tag (select by user), an HTML block, a couple of plain text fields and the Image module.

Can someone advise me how to remedy this?

Thanks,

Rick

Hi Rick,

this is not a complete solution but just a few hints which I would do if I were in your shoes.

- check the page admin/config/media/image-styles and ensure standard styles there have a default settings, especially Thumbnail;
- check the /admin/config/media/file-system page and ensure you do have correctly configured at least Public file storage;
- check the image field configuration page and ensure you have correct settings for preview style and image destination - see attached screenshot;
- update to latest Drupal 7.x;
- to test if regular authenticated user (not an admin) able to upload the file and create entry.

Hope this helps.
Regards, Dennis

Rick, if you use private file storage, here is a report about an somewhat related issue.
http://drupal.org/node/1888740

So if you do, I recommend you to switch to public method if possible.

Version: 7.14 » 7.x-dev

Core issues are now filed against the dev versions where changes will be made. Document the specific release you are using in your issue comment. More information about choosing a version.
