Hi
Thank you for your suggestion on using an integer field, sounds much neater, assuming as you say that the only difference I want to make is on upload numbers.
I did a bit more testing this morning on this limit issue, and still found I was able to exceed the number set for a gallery, which was refusing further uploads, by just posting images, which were then added to the gallery.
I took a quick look in the backend, and although all the files were the same type, ie photo files, they were listed under two different assets; one was profile.[user_id].uploads and the other was profile.[user_id] and the uploads assets were going to an Uploads album.
I tried it with a second test user and the same result. It seems that the Uploads albums, which have been created automatically, are receiving the posted images and duplicating the limit, so if it is set to 5 for example, a user is able to upload 10 images in total.
Am I missing something obvious here? I haven't disabled the creation of albums, but obviously I didn't actually create these Upload albums.
Thanks.
