The Attachment Permissions form displays a list of all allowed attachment extensions on your site with a list under each extension (for example, jpg or pdf) of of the usergroups authorized to use each one.
The display is color coded. Red indicates that a usergroup has a custom attachment permission specified for this channel. If no custom attachment permission has been specified, the usergroup is assigned the default attachment extension permissions.
To the right of each extension name are two links:
- , which automatically deletes any custom permissions set for the extension.
- , which automatically denies every usergroup permission to upload the extension.
The following form opens.
