It happens that you can upload images to your server, but the images are not visible neither to the author when writing pages nor to your website-visitors, than you have a problem with the file permissions.

Unlike many other systems, CMSimple does not set file permissions after the proces of uploading, so the files keep the restrictive permission “0600” with some special server configurations. CMSimple relies here on the server-configuration and does not care about that problem.

There is a patch available at swww.webdeerns.de, which sets the permission of the files to 644.

All you have to do is to download the relevant zip, unpack it and upload the adm.php to the cmsimple-folder (where you see cms.php as well)
