In the file upload options area on my control panel it states the following:
Valid Extensions
Valid extensions that uploads may have. Separate each item with a space. For each extension, you should have a file in the /images/attach/ folder called xxx.gif where xxx is the extension of the file. This allows you to have an icon for each file type.
The file types I have selected as allowable in the next option box on my board are:
gif jpg png txt bmp jpeg
What does it mean when it states that "For each extension I should have a file in the /images/attach folder called xxx.gif?
Does this mean that once I turn on the uploads feature of my board(allowing users to upload files), that I should create one file (or folder?) over in /images/attach area with certain names...... or does this mean that as users upload images, the names of the images will be placed in the /images/attach folder area of my website?
Once I've turned on the upload images option in my control panel, do I have to do anything else (create some kind of "xxx.gif... xxx.jpg... etc files) on my website?
Thanks for any help with this one.
