PM's

Post by johnboy »

Does anyone have any success attaching photos to pm's? When I've tried, I get the message that the standard extensions, like jpg, are not allowed.

My recollection is that it's impossible to add any kind of attachment to a PM even though the Forum software appears to permit the option.

Thanks Hugh. It would be quite useful to have. I did google it and came up with one answer, but I've no idea if this is the same software or whether it's relevant.

Hmmm...."Allow Attachments in Private Messages" is enabled, so there must be another setting somewhere which is blocking them.

I do believe you have done it! Pictures sent through the air, what will they think of next.
