Attachments permissions per forum

[GlenP]

I'm probably being especially stupid bit I cannot find a way to disable permission to upload attachments. We have some forums which we do not want people to be able to upload attachments and is working well in 3.4.x but seems to have disappeared in our 4.x test site.

Here's a simple solution

1.Create a new theme - just a copy of your use community theme.

2. Add in Custom css on this theme

.ipsComposeArea_dropZone{display:none;}

3. Change to edit all forums that you want

"Forum Settings -> Theme Override:  Select a this new theme and Save.

These forums will have no attachment files.

Heh, this is genuis! Thank you!

Since I have the Pages app, I'm going to keep my existing theme and write a custom css definition to hide this. Then, I'll only include that block in this particular forum. Perfect!
