How do members attach a file?

Question

I cannot find an option to attach files when someone POSTs a message to the group. I have "distribute" checked under "attachments" (under Management >>Messages >>Edit (Posting & Archives) but still there is not an option to "attach a file" when I go to post a message. Is attaching a file to a message not allowed in groups? Thanks!

Answer 1

you cant attach a file when posting off the groups homepage- this has to be done through e-mail sent then to the group

Answer 2

When messages with attachments are sent to group where attachment distribution is allowed, Yahoo strips the attachment from what is posted on the group site.  But, when the messages go out to members who have their email delivery set for Individual Emails, the attachments do show up in the email.  Those who receive Daily Digest or those who view the messages on the group online would not see them.

There is no option to change this process.

The only other reasons some might not be able to see them via email would be their browser being set to not allow attachments.
