How do I delete attachments / pictures? Want to clear out my list a bit.

Do you mean from the attachment manager? You shouldn't really need to as you can organize w/ folders, etc. You can nest folders. In my attachment manager I have a ton of car review related pics so I have 2010, 2011, 2012 by year. Then w/in those folders I have 2011 5 Series, 2011 Infiniti G37, etc.

Try right-clicking (or Macs command/apple-click) from w/in the folder list and you should be prompted to create a new folder. Also dragging and dropping works w/in the attachment manager window.

Not that I want to organize my pictures, but I actually do want to delete a couple. I will organize the rest later, but I want to take some offline.

I had to look it up on vBulletin's site. Sometimes this software is ridiculously unintuitive. You don't delete via the attachment manager via a post. To delete click the "settings" link at the top of the page then click the "attachments" link in the middle column. From w/in the settings -> attachments page you can delete and view some statistics.

I'm trying to upload a PDF with that and it's not working. Are PDFs not allowed, or not files over a certain size?

[Head Honcho]

The following file types are currently allowed.

Valid file extensions: bmp doc gif jpeg jpg mov mp3 pdf png psd txt wav zip

I can add more file types as needed.

Re: size. The allowed file size varies based on type. A pdf is limited to 20 MB. What type of error message are you seeing?

I just uploaded the attached Tesla Roadster Monroney to make sure there were no problems w/ the system.

Hmm... it's only a 3.35MB PDF... In the advanced flash uploader it shows a (!) next to the file which you can roll over to see:
403 [IOErrorEvent type="ioError" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2 text="Error #2038"]

The basic uploader just silently fails.

Thanks. Thats a good error report that I can track down. I'm on deadline on something but I will track it down later tonight.

No hurry since I got it up on google docs instead but I thought you'd want to know.
Pictures seem to work fine.

I am not finding an option to delete any attachment.

Going through hundreds of posts here looking, no joy yet.

Looking at another post, it doesn't look like I have permission to delete my own attachments.

Funny. Now there's a delete button, to delete selected. Only one attachment has a box though. Maybe I have to wait for permission replication?
