Howdy!

The new version of SMF seems to have removed the old file attachment management on a post. How do I remove an attachment from my post?

I looked in the electronic manual, but it is the old system:

QuoteAttachments - If enabled, this feature allows users to attach files to their posts in the same way as most e-mail clients. Users simply have to browse to the relevant files on their computer before selecting Post. Multiple attachments, up to the limit set by the administrator, can be added to a single post by selecting the Additional Attachments link. Users can delete their attachments or add more by modifying their posts. The permitted file types and sizes are set by the forum administrator. Some forums may display image attachments in line with the post or show them as thumbnails below the post.

Thanks!

Bottom RHS of post click more.. then click modify.
click 'attachments and other options' drop down.

Each attachment should have a delete this attachment button.
Click on said button.
The click save.


Or at least that is how it worked in 2.1.beta3  I haven't installed beta 4 at this time.

Thanks!

There had been a bug in my installation upgrade and the options were not there. I erased the forum software completely and did a fresh installation.
