Adding attachments to postings

Post by administrator »

With version 3 of phpBB, attachments are native to the system, it's now much easier to add attachments to postings...

When you're writing your post, you'll notice a couple of tabs below the "Submit" and "Review buttons"...

Upload Attachment tab

Click the "Upload Attachment" tab and fill in the details...

File attachment form
(9.21 KiB) Not downloaded yet
You'll need to click the "Upload Attachment" tab for each file you want to attach.

If you have a problem, firstly check the "FAQ" link at the top of the screen to look for a solution.

I've created a 'test' forum: Feel free to try out some attachments or other things in there.

If you continue having problems, please post them here.

Enjoy :mrgreen:

Hi Martin or Ian,

I have added photos to go with my comments, they upload then after 2 days then they disappear, so when reading the comments, they don't make sense as the photos have disappeared!

Why is this? as it don't seem to be happening with other postings from other people.

cheers Mark

Thats weird as viewed my posting: Sat Aug 06, 2011 21:10 Post subject: Kite Boarding at WSM - Sat 6th Aug.

Where the photos disappeared yesterday, today they've re-appeared!

Is it my browser?

As this happened to another posting of mine, but I think the photos didn't re-appear.
