Users unable to add Attachments to Wiki articles

Users can't add Attachments to other people's Wiki articles

My regular users cannot add Attachments to Wiki articles that other people have created. They receive a permission error when clicking "Manage Attachments" on the Edit tab. (They are able to Attachment files to their own articles.)

I have my regular users' usergroup's VaultWiki permissions for the Wiki all set to 'Yes'. The usergroup is also set to allow for unlimited upload of Attachments. They are still able to edit the text of all Wikis, just unable to attach files to ones they didn't create.

Please advise.

Okay I will have to do some investigating. I'll get back to you with the findings and whether or not the fix is a simple file edit. Thank you for being specific about which part of the process of adding attachments has the problem. Would have been so easy just to leave it at the title, but it should be easier to duplicate now.

Okay, I was able to confirm with a test account. It's not going to be a simple file edit. It requires a new PHP class and changes to some templates, so the fix would only be included in a new release and won't be posted here.

Okay wrote the necessary classes and got past the no-permission message, only to find that wiki images posted by other users aren't being inserted (dragging them to the post appears to do nothing). Continuing investigations.

When will the next release be approximately? This function plays an important role in our website and we're planning to open the site to the public starting on January 1st. Will the new version be ready before then?
