IMCE - No Browse Server Button?

    I'm using the IMCE image/ file manager with Drupal, and it works great - but in my "client" permission role the "browser server" button won't show up. It shows up for user-1 and my role that has all kinds of permission.

    I've enabled an IMCE profile for the "client" role, added file upload permissions, all to no avail. I'm using IMCE 6.x-1.4. Has anyone else experienced this problem? Without the browse server button my clients can't upload any files or images, which defeats the whole purpose of using IMCE.

    The base WYSIWYG I'm using is FCKeditor.

    Make sure that in your FCKEditor settings, for the global profile, you have the "Role precedence" under "Main setup" in the correct order. In your case, you'll probably want to put your "client" role in front of the "authenticated user" role. Otherwise, the client's permissions will get overridden by those for the authenticated user, which usually comes with lesser permissions.

    Once you've done this, browse to Content Management > Post Settings > and rebuild your content permissions. Finally, clear your cache (Flush all caches). Then, try and reload the page logged in with a user that has your client profile permissions. You should (hopefully) now see the "browse server" button.
