Board attachment quota has been reached (?)

[ExFender]

In the "Members Treasures" board. What gives?

I have also been trying to contact the site admin about some photos that I have of guitars where no data is available on the site.

I too tried to contact admin as I have an Aria Pro II model that photos for need to be added to the database but that was nearly 2 years ago. I just forgot about it till now.

The moderators and admins know how to contact me. I had to abandon the old e-mail address due to spam and phishing attempts. I have been made aware of the problem. Sadly I cannot up the quota. I get SQL and PHP errors when I try and have not been able to fix this. This is a remnant of the board crash we had some time back. I am removing attachments dated 2015 or older. I probably should as our disk quota for the site is finite. Hopefully this restores the attachment functions. It may cause errors for the oldest attachments but it is the best I can do. I have not been able to track down and fix a few problems.

[EDIT]

No joy. I have 4 days off coming this Thursday. Hopefully I can find the SQL table and specific field to edit to overcome the quota.

Sounds reasonable, tho it is unfortunate to lose the old photos. Would it be possible to set up an archive on a sub-forum?

On another subject, a couple of us have photos of guitars that are being sought on the main web site and have not had any response to inquiries.

It would seem I am unable to restore the attachment option. I have tried every way from Sunday with no luck. I have gone through every table in the SQL database (63 in total) and cannot find a max quota option. After the board suffered a major crash I was lucky to recover what I did.

I get many SQL and PHP errors when trying to up the attachment quota.

If I make any changes it may break the board completely.

We will likely have to use external image hosting services from here on out. I apologize for not being able to fix the problem.

What a shame we've lost that history.
Thanks for the effort Crusty I know what a PITA it all is.

I am happy to report this issue has finally been resolved.
