Subscribers cannot view, Moderators can upload: In this mode the Files and Photos Tabs in the left hand Menu column are removed from Subscribers' web UIs but are visible and active for Moderators. The facilities available to Moderators are the same as for settings considered previously in this guidance note and will not be detailed here.

Files (or Photos) areDisabled: Although Files & Photos being disabled may well not be the norm it is one of the easiest situations to describe. Disabling either feature removes the respective Tab from the Menu down the left hand side of the web UI. Although any content in either archive at the time of disablement becomes inaccessible, it is not deleted and if the feature is later restored the content will once again be accessible.
It is worth noting that attached photos still work correctly even if the Photos section is disabled; a thumbnail appears in the text of the message and when clicked an enlarged version appears as normal. If the photos section is re-enabled the photo concerned will be found in the Emailed Photos Album as expected.
