Oh, I've already taken care of the settings for that -- in fact, I upped the maximum number of images and videos allowed in a post to reflect our usual practices.
I'm talking about actually attaching files to a post for download, like, say, a spreadsheet or a zip file.
Be wary of security concerns with some of that. I'd recommend putting the ability to post spreadsheets and zips into a restricted territory: vetted and/or well aged accounts. And definitely restrict the download of such to registered users, possibly with the same restrictions.
