10 files upload limit in forum and no limit in gallery

[Noni]

Why am i not allowed to upload more than 10 files at once when adding a topic? In the gallery, this limit has been lifted with the upgrade to the latest version... what's the point to still have it in the forum?

This should be a user-group setting, not hard-coded IMHO.

I posted a community article on changing this for those who needed more in IP.Board a while back here

Just tweaked it a bit to make it clear what to do where for each version.

Thank you :)

I agree that it should be a setting in the admin rather than coded in some file..

Thank you :smile:

I absolutely agree. I have no problems with my users being allowed to upload/queue up to 100 photos at a time. It's a rare enough event anyway, and it ought to be under admin control where we don't have to go modify code and lose the mod every time Invision is upgraded.
