Unable to create image category - Image category invalid - TXP 4.5.7

Hi,

Unfortunately I’m unable to create an image category at …Content | Categories | Images => Create. Textpattern shows a red highlighted error “Image category invalid” when I click on the Create button. The same with Files => Create.
…I already searched the web and the possibly related topics of this forum but without success. And I hope you can help now!

Thanks for your hint in advance!

Cheers,

Jens

Hi Jens and welcome to txp.
what is the category name you are trying to create? There are some names which are reserved.

Hi Yiannis,

Thank you! …And especially for your very quick reply!
It’s before that: when I click on the button “Create”, the error message appears.

I have a screenshot here but didn’t see any chance to upload it. (Is there any?)

Maybe we found the problem. You have to type in the category name on the text field on the top of the page before you click the create button.

Hey Jens, the easiest way I’ve found to display images on this forum is to host them yourself.

What I do is sign into my Textpattern admin, go to the images tab, and upload the screenshot. The backend interface has the capability to build you a link to your image in either Textile | Textpattern | HTML.

This forum uses Textile, so this:

!http://txptag.com/images/2.gif (Textpattern CMS)!

Becomes this:

I just saw it! ;-) …thanks for your additional hint.
@Yiannis, THANK you very much! It was quite easy in the end. :-D
But anyway: I’m very excited about the responsiveness and the very good communication and support in this forum.

@All, thanks again and have a nice day!
