Stuart - I have been working with creating a files section although Discourse isnt natively friendly to the idea. There should be a Files section in the link tree at this point it is a link to a shared drive. It should be set to drop a new file into the folder.
Ryan- I can view the files link and browse the contents in the Google Drive. I don’t have any upload permissions though. I tried dropping a pdf of the inverter manual onto both the Files and the Google Drive, but got the invalid permissions message.
Could be that the account I registered for the forum is not a google account and when accessing the files it opens Google Drive and uses my google account. I stopped using that google account a while back except for a couple of necessary interactions with Google.
Using a private browser logged into the vanleigh rv owners site, There isn’t even a files link in the sidebar.
Stuart - I changed the permissions to enable open access to the Google Drive. That should enable you to upload the document and likely make the link viewable from a private browser.
I also made a change to allow PDF, DOC and DOCX to be added to the post. I had tested this previously and had some funkiness. Not fully tested but you are welcome to give it a try.
I will have to continue testing and looking for a solution for a file archive.
Thanks Ryan. I was able to upload that owners manual for the inverter. So it worked for me. I’ll put a link to it in the other post in case others want to view it.
You guys are magicians to create a forum that is so helpful to all us Vanleigh orphans.
Merry Christmas and thank for this gift.
