Hi,
When a user of our Piwigo gallery attempts to upload photos, he or she gets a "storage limit of 516 mb exceeded", and he or she can't upload anything. When an administrator looks at the dashboard, he sees 274 mb of storage used. Also, an administrator can upload photos.
I would reload the Piwigo program, but my dashboard and Tools-Update both say I have the latest version.
I would be grateful for any suggestions.

If that is the exact error message then it is not a Piwigo message.
However, I doubt that 516 was literally the number given, rather 512, and that it wasn't about disk storage but rather a memory limit, or some file upload limit. This is all guessing around without further details.

Thank you very much for your response. The exact error message is "The uploaded files exceed the post_max_size directive in php.ini: 516MB"

There it already tells you what the problem is. post_max_size is the PHP config value for the maximum size all uploads together in one go may have. The individual file size is limited by upload_max_filesize. If you want to increase it do it in the php.ini that is evaluated in web server context. Or the user has to upload less files in one go.
