Admin. Please help.
« on: Friday 28 April 23 17:23 BST (UK) »
Hi Administrators,

I tried to post some photos on my WW2 post but the file size was too big. I tried to resize them and attach them but it was having an issue. Now, they say I need to contact the administration to have it unlocked.

Please help. Thank you very much.

Thank you. I will take note for the future.

The message said that I needed to contact administration to unlock the message or something to that effect. :)

Hi,

Thanks for replying.
The post is under WW2 and is called "English WW2 Artillery Soldier Records."

The error I just got again is An Error Has Occurred! And below it is "Your attachment has failed security checks and cannot be uploaded. Please consult the forum administrator."

I kept trying to reduce the file size and was trying to re-upload the photos. That is when this error appeared. This will not go away.

Thanks a million!

I think this maybe due to some of the filenames that you have chosen as they contain charactors

eg (-*7=/?) if you named them more simply that would help.

Thanks to everyone who took the time to help.

For some reason  ???, there were some issues but after careful adjustments everything is working now! I had to cut out chunks of the photo and resize it but all is well now. LOL :D

Thanks all!
