Uploading PDF's?

I cant seem to find any area on the forum that allows this now. Does anyone know how to do it?

from what i have seen you can't - but might be wrong.

What i have done on other forums is change the file type to an image (jpg), upload it, give the person the url, and tell them to change it when they download it... and then delete the file afterwards, as some pdfs can be quite big.

Quite awkward though - emailing the file is easier

You could also try and convert the pdf to an image LINK

Yup - recent changes appear to have disabled the "upload a file" box when posting in all forum areas.

It'll be back soon. There was a security issue with the upload which I need to fix.

If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation
