Adding option to upload attachments

Would it be possible to add the option to add Word/PDF files/PowerPoint files to posts? At the moment, you can only upload images. For the Empathy and Narrative Discussion Group, it would be nice if we could share notes/slides for everyone to access.

Done! there’s a list of file extensions allowed in the settings, to prevent users to upload malware. I’ve now added many more “safe” extensions, if you can’t upload a specific file format let me know

You cannot upload PowerPoints at this point, but I suppose you could save those as PDFs and upload them that way.
