Are you trying to upload to a forum post? The only files allowed are [.gif .jpg .txt]. PDF files will not work for a forum post.

I am trying to upload .pdf files to a forum post. I was able to do it before. Did something change? Dan.

How long ago? This feature has not changed for some time.

Maybe about a month. But if it can't be done I'll have to live without it. Thanks, Dan.

As far as I know, only the three file types defined above can be attached to a post.

Another option (if you have the resources) is to upload the file to a web host and then just link to it for others.

Hi Lightfoot, I just tried to upload one of the pdf files from that previous post and I got the not supported message. Try it yourself in a reply to me. Thanks, Dan.

I picked some PDF files at random from those I have available on my web page. Some are relatively large. I got a success message.

Thanks for the try. I'll try an upload now. Nope. They still won't go. I'll have to use E-mails until this gets fixed. Thanks again, Dan.
