Using Web File Notes for users to download document files

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 88

Hi All, On my PowerPages website I need to provide a hardcopy "ApplicationForm.docx" file for users to download. 

 

I have found that I can use 'Web Files' within Portal Management, and then Notes to store the "ApplicationForm.docx" file however when I do so I receive a message "This file format is not supported. You can try with one of the supported formats: PNG, JPEG, GIF"

 

How can I add to this supported formats list so it accepts my .docx file?  Thanks

    Resolved this.  Dragging and dropping a file from my desktop to Notes resulted in"This file format is not supported. You can try with one of the supported formats: PNG, JPEG, GIF"

    However clicking on the paperclip within Notes and attaching via that method worked fine

    Thanks for the reply.  I looked and don't have .docx or .doc as blocked attachments. Not sure whats going on, even in the Model Driven App it doesnt allow.

    Hi @PurdyeS 

     

    I have tested this on two sites. I can upload .docx or .doc format. 

    Try this 

    In Portal management: 

     

    1.  Click Settings > Advanced settings 

    2. Settings > Administration  > System Settings 

    3.  Under General tab> Set blocked file extensions for attachments 

    4. Make sure there is no ".docx or .doc"

    5. Hit Ok and refresh the portal 

     


    Hope it helps.
