I have the same problem that the attachments are not shown for most users. I think the problem started after the last update.
Any news?

You're right Mr Papa, the permission was missing. For me only the question why my customer started complaining after the last upgrade.
Thanks.

More than likely because we fixed a bug in the permissions checking... It was doing it wrong before and letting some through and stopping others... So now that it was fixed, it showed up...

I'm having this problem where only moderators can download/upload attachments. The posts show an attachment until you click on the post to read it - then there are no attachments shown. All other registered users are using Standard Access - and "Can download other file type attachments" is ticked for this permission set.
Any ideas?

Is this SP 5.1.4?
If so - can you also try to go to the forum admin > toolbox > housekeeping and click on the reset auths tool?

No effect after reset Auths.
SP Version 5.1.4

OK - I realise this might not sound relevant but perhaps you could check it for me anyway.
In the forum admin > components > file uploads > Settings box is the option 'Show uploads inserted into post content (applies to images and media) in the attachments section below post content' turned on?

Yes indeed - that option is selected as well.

Yes - I think I was chasing a bit of a red herring on that one.
In theory this should come down to permissions and only to permissions. I think you are going to need to engage the help of a user who does not see the attachment box if that is possible.
What you need them to do - and it has to be a user who does NOT see the box - is to go to their profile - select the 'permissions' tab and then select a forum where you KNOW there is an attachment they are unable to see.
In particular I think we are interested in the permission 'Can download other file type attachments' in the 'viewing' section. I.e., is it turned on or off.
Is that going to be possible?
