HI -- I'm trying to upload a link to a PDF file in the CMS... and I keep getting this
error

Error uploading 'TrailingEdgeModelNEW.pdf', server returned: HTTP 403

I am using the bottom "upload file" section and it has been modified to include the following files gif,jpg,png,wmv,mov,swf,pdf

ideas?

Thanks,

Hi CF,

The first thing I'd want to check is whether the problem has to do with the Flash Uploader. Try turning it off and seeing if you can upload your PDF:

Admin > General Settings > Advanced Settings >
File Uploads [x] Disable Flash Uploader - attach one file at a time (doesn't require flash)

Please let us know if that helps or doesn't help!
All the best,
Chris

AH-HAH! yes.. that fixed it. I can now upload....

however... I now have a new problem... as to not being able to link text in the cms to the pdf file... I think what this does is adds a line of PHP to have on your php page....all I want to do is to be able to add a section where they can have text.. and then link to the text with a PDF file to download.....

Ideas?

Thanks,

Hi,

After the file uploads, you should still be able to add a caption and a title. If this doesn't show up right away, you can add it by clicking on "Modify" beside your file.

Is this the text you're referring to?

Hope this helps.
