    Solved Selecting Attachment types

    Post by crazy pete July 30th 2012, 11:21 am

    Hi

    Is it possible to select only the required attachment types from the allowed list in the attachments Tab ??

    Reason - our members keep attaching very large photo files and its using up all our storage.
    We would like to dis allow Picture files as attachments "ie" BMP,JPG,JPEG etc..

    Thanks
    Pete

    The file type cannot be restricted. However, you can restrict the maximum space of the file.
    General>Attachments
    Configuration tab
