Description

I always document our project via markdown. In case I need to attach a screenshot, I always go to my local phabricator setup, open a temporary *create task* window, paste an image into the textbox to get an image ID, something like {F3004}. Then I place this string into the markdown text. Once done, I commit to the svn server. The phabricator can later display the documentation as well as the images so my team could read.

Recently other team members told me that they never saw images posted by me, they only see things like:

pasted_file (188×464 px, 10 KB)

While I can view those images with my account, like this:

pasted_file (221×488 px, 19 KB)

I then tried the following:

  • I logged into their computer with my account. I can view the images.
  • In my computer, I logged in using the admin account, still cannot view the images.

So it is not related to computers or browsers. It is only related to user accounts.

Is it a bug?

[Update]
I upgraded phabricator just now to this commit:

commit 958333c46dd9c06c9a98cf7079b58717622c3643

The problem still persists.

Uploading a file to Maniphest tasks sets the permissions to the view policy of that task. If you need to just upload any file to Phabricator, just drag and drop it onto your homepage or use the Files application.

chad claimed this task.

Closing since this isn't a bug report. See Contributing Bug Reports for what we look for in a bug report (specifically, repeatable steps by us to reproduce the issue). General questions on using Phabricator are better suited for Ponder. Thanks!
