Hi, just getting into FUD here... I have it all set up, but when a user uploads a PDF file, and later someone clicks on that file link the PDF link gives a 404... I know that the file is there, because I can download it, ut the viewing of it is not working is there something I should turn on... or is this not even a feature ?

I have uploaded a text file to this message as a test to see if I can view it here...

You can upload any file as long as the forum file uploads are enabled and the file type is allowed.

The reason you get a 404 is because you have referrer checking enabled (disable it) and the user's referrer does not match forum's WWW_ROOT.
