Post Attachments to Gallery - Is It Possible?

[Joy Rex]

I've got a bit of a quandary with my users - I provide them storage space based on their memberships so they can upload content to posts, etc.. Works great, except for when somebody runs out of space - I have to increase the space allowed for their group, or consider enabling the ability to delete their attachments, which will in turn create broken links in content they uploaded.

Is there any way to move attachments from a user or possibly a thread into a Gallery? That might be a better solution than having broken content on the site - that is if Gallery uploads do not count against a user's attachment limits (if defined).

Any ideas or solutions I'm not seeing are greatly appreciated.

There is no built in option to store attachments in Gallery (or Downloads or any other app). That said, it strikes me as illogical you would give a user unlimited space in Gallery but a restricted amount of space in post attachments. An uploaded image is an uploaded image.

I think that I would be a nice option to auto populate a member album called "Member Name Attachments" and make easier for the community to see every image or video posted by the member along the community, as long as there is no attachment display on member profile.
