Why can't I upload PDF files using the Settings, Images & Navigation, upload images.

It's kind of important to be able to upload pdf files for people to get manuals and other information.

I get an error when I try to do PDFs

Anybody else have this problem?

Hi Ammonihah,

We looked into this today and it turns out to be a side-effect of our efforts to really tighten the screws on areas that could potentially be exploited, which especially applies to scripts that allow files to be uploaded to the web server. We have just made a change to one of the files that now allows PDFs to be uploaded through the ProductCart Control Panel, so please open a regular support ticket so that we can reply via a secure thread. Thank you.
