User image options settings

Under User image options, configure the settings of the Image library the website user accesses. For example, you can select whether to require approval for images your users upload to the website and set a maximum file size for user images.

1. To require approval of all images that the user uploads to Image library, select Require approval for all images uploaded by users. By default, this checkbox is selected.

Note: When you select Require approval for all images uploaded by users, the program saves images that the website user uploads as unapproved. Until an Administrator approves an image, it appears only for the user who loads it. To other users, an unapproved image appears as the standard “Photo Not Available” graphic.

2. In the Maximum number of images allowed per user field, enter the maximum number of personal images a website user can upload to Image library. Users upload personal images on the User Photos Form part. You can view these in Image library by selecting “Personal” in the Type of image field on the Search tab.

To allow website users to upload an unlimited number of images, enter “0.”

3. In the Maximum image size field, enter the maximum file size in kilobytes for images that website users upload to Image library.

To use the default file size limit of 4 megabytes from the web.config file, enter “0.” To upload files larger than 4 MB, you must edit the web.config file.

4. In the Default image folder field, select the default folder images upload to in Image library.
5. In the Default profile image folder field, select the default folder profile images upload to in Image library. A website user uploads a profile image on their profile page. You can view these in Image library by selecting “Profile” in the Type of image field on the Search tab.

For information about Image library, see Image Library.

6. To save the settings, click Save.
