Description
Hi, I'm trying to upload a file to a forum post for a hidden group (LILAC, again, I know, I am a thorn in your side!) and it's not working. Weirdly, when I try to upload a .doc file, the post goes through but the file is not uploaded. If I try with a .pdf I get this error message: "You need to actually submit some content!" I'm using the latest version of Firefox on WinXP. Thanks!

Hi Maura. A bit of research showed that this was due to a small incompatibility between our attachments plugin and the newly upgraded version of bbPress. I've made the necessary changes and uploads appear to be working. Please let me know whether your problem is solved so I can close the ticket.
Technical note: http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bb-attachments/page/15/#post-3784 is the problem. Fixed in bbpress on the specified line.
PS - I also added a few additional permissible file extensions: docx, xlsx (office 2007)
Good thinking, Boone -- thanks for your quick attention to this.
