Title: Uploading a file
Post by: Fletch74 on September 07, 2010, 04:06:27 PM
m0nty,

I'm trying to upload a spreadsheet for the EPL comp in the Association football board. I get this message

"The attachments upload directory is not writable. Your attachment or avatar cannot be saved."

I've even tried changing directories to see if that works, not sure why it won't let me attach the file??

Cheers

Monty,

Any chance of having a look at this for me. i'm just trying to upload an excel file, but it comes up with that message. I have googled it, and it tells me that it is an issue from the forum administrator's side of things. Could you please have a look.

I've seen other spreadsheets on the forum before, is it just to do with where the board that I'm posting in??

Thanks,

Well, I am not m0nty and I can't fix this for you, but I can suggest something for you.
You could take a screenshot of the spreadsheet and crop it, this would only work if all you wanted to do was show people the spreadsheet.

Unfortunately Alex, it has 9 tabs

There are many free file uploading sites on the net that will provide you a link you can share on any forum.

http://www.mediafire.com/ (http://www.mediafire.com/) - Was the first result when I googled 'file uploader'.
