Hi, how have you been able to attach a file to your message? I'm looking at the Message window right now but don't see any icon with that purpose.

re: How to Add an Attachment


Firstly, I've split this post away into its own thread. This is related to the other question so it must not be posted in there.

To attach something to your post :
  1. Make a post.
  2. Edit your post within 60 minutes of posting. After that time it is locked to further editing by members.
  3. Scroll down the page until you get to the Additional Options block.
  4. In there click on Manage Attachments.
  5. From there it should be quite straightforward. You just select what you need depending on exactly what you're doing.

Thank you. Are there any emoticons?

Emoticons work in some areas but not others.

As a general rule of thumb, emoticons are disabled in technical areas but enabled elsewhere.
