Uploads to Forum

(OP)
Its been a month or so that I have been able to look at forum threads. I notice that the "start thread" and "reply" are different in format.
I am at a new facility however it appears Eng Tips has a new look. I noticed in a thread that Jieve was having trouble uploading a pdf.
I too am having trouble. The link doesnt work and the full path (http://...)doesnt appear.

Others having problems? If anyone has success uploading could you please reply with full path to upload procedure?

thanks in advance...

RE: Uploads to Forum

There seems to be an error on the website. When I click the "... or upload your file to engineering.com", the link does not work.
It seems the administration works on this functionality because something like a week ago there was even no such link available.
Hope they solve the issue soon.

In the meantime you can try to upload files to some external servers and add a link to it in the post.

RE: Uploads to Forum

Hi dtmbiz,

As a workaround I'm now uploading files to share to google docs and posting the links in posts. Seems to work ok, although I occasionally had trouble viewing my own links and needed to manually enter the colon into the address in a separate window.

RE: Uploads to Forum

I just tried and noticed that the file upload is working now.

The link problem has also been fixed.

Thanks to all, it appears as some have mentioned that the link is now working.
