Attaching Files to Posts

From Social Squared version 1.0.0.7 it is possible to attach files to posts within a forum. By default this is turned off. When this is enabled users will see the Attach Files text box together with a Browse button.

It is also possible to select from files that are stored within SharePoint® libraries.
When the post is created, links to attached files appear below the main body of the post.

To activate the attach file functionality for a forum, complete the following steps:

1. Click Site Actions, and then click Site Settings.
   
   
2. On the Site Settings page, under Social Squared Forum, click Forum Groups.
   
   
3. On the Forum Groups page, to the right of the forum group which contains your forum, click View Forums to display the Forums [ forum group name ] page.
   
   
4. For the forum you wish to configure permissions, click Edit.
   The Edit forum group page is displayed.
   
   
5. In the Attachments section, select the Allow Attachments checkbox.
