Glad I'm not the only one that can't find a way to link photos, PDF, or Excel files. I have a 17 page write up of my electrical upgrade I want to add to the Tech Wiki. I can add the text but can't figure out how to add the attachments or change the title of the page Stu added after a couple hours of hunting around. The write up should be the difficult part.  Jon W.

Jon, WHEW.  I thought I was possibly brain dead.

As I recall, there used to be a button to add a media link. 
Then publish your page.
Then click on the media link on the published page -- and it opened a mediawiki page to upload a file (process of which in itself wasn't easy either -- there's probably 10-20 files out there in the wiki vapor which I had messed up and then tried to delete or re-upload, but didn't know how to.)

I just sent Jon this email:

We're in the process of our Site Improvement Committee work now.  I wrote it up in the Officers Meeting Notes.

Please have some patience, we met by phone a couple of weeks ago and will convene again soon and attempt to address this.

Thanks for letting us know.

Haven't been home yet, but hope there isn't a size limit for the project documentation like the Message Board. The Word document that I will be copying from is just under 4mb (mostly due to 81 photo's), plus an Excel file, a PDF, and maybe the Visio schematic native file for another ~ 1mb.

~ 5 mb total for all documentation I hope to be able to post as a Tech Wiki write up.
