How can we allow guests to view attachments?

Only members may post but we need guests to view all including attachments.

Thanks

Hi
I’m afraid it’s not possible to allow guests to view attachments.
It is suggested (as an alternative) using an image hosting service, then embed the image to your posts via the Insert Image button.

*Our Help Guide article of External Resources has a list of forum-friendly image hosting services.

Thanks Sossity,
That may be an option for us. We would like to attach PDFs and I haven't found support for that.

Alternative for guests viewing PDFs, you can use  a third party site such as google drive or onedrive to upload the pdf to and then link to it. Of course, that will work for members too.

Having PDF as an Attachment, it’s the same rules as any other attachment. You may upgrade via Admin > Settings > Manage Attachments and go from there.

Thanks Sossity,
I think that will do the trick. A bit cumbersome but it should work.
