Title: Attachment folder full
Post by: ccheryld on March 25, 2016, 08:51:26 PM
My fairly new forum won't let anyone add attachments. Says folder is full.



Total Attachments:
    109
Total Avatars:
    2
Total Size of Attachment Directory:
    10268.83 kB
Total Space Available in Attachment Directory:
    0 kB

1. How can I allow attachments.

2. How can I stop attachments older than 25 days from being deleted?
I enter new figures and they revert to 255 when I reload and go back into 'file maintanance'

Admin -> Attachments and Avatars -> Attachment Settings -> Max attachment folder space

Make it larger, or set to 0 for unlimited.


Admin -> Attachments and Avatars -> File Maintenance -> Attachment Pruning

Pruning function is manual only, attachments are not automatically deleted after specified days.

Not sure I understand the question.  Attachments are posted to the /attachments directory in your forum.  File names are hashed for security reasons, so you won't be able to identify the files.
