How many posts needed for a signature?

RED L4 0TH

Is it 25? Keep getting a message saying I don't have enough when I try to add one.

Spear

Yes, 25 posts are needed.

RED L4 0TH

Thanks. After trying again, still getting the not enough posts message.

Spear

Can you get a screenshot of it?

RED L4 0TH

Dont you need 50 and over posts for that? PM you?

Spear

PM is fine.

Mr E

It might be related to this:

New users will be unable to post images, attachments or links before they reach 50 posts or are members for 10 days (they must meet both criteria). If they try to, they will receive an error message telling them that they cannot post images or links.

That relates to regular posts, but it might carry through to signatures too.

That's my suspicion. Once I had the screenshot I was going to open a bug report.

Thanks guys. I only registered the account on Tuesday. Spear, was about to send you a PM, then saw Mr E's post. No problem waiting 10 days.

Spear

But you shouldn't have to. There's no timeframe limit on sigs, just the 25 posts. This does seem to be a bug.

Interesting. Tried again.

In signature permissions it says I can't upload an image. I then linked to the URL of an image, then previewed it. The image displayed, went to save and got the 'not enough posts' message again. The image was 128 x 128 in size.

Mr E

Create a sig without links or images. Just a line that says "This is a sig". See if that works.

Spear

The limit for sigs has been increased to 50. I'll amend the FAQs to reflect this.
