 * it seems that after last update I no longer have the option of uploading via 
   the link that shortcode [shared_files file_upload=1] created. I can still list
   all the files I previously uploaded like that but the option is. I long there
   today to upload. Is that paid option only now?

 * Hi, that is a paid option only now. Uploading files is possible from WP admin/
   Shared Files in the free version.

 * Excuse Me, you TAKE AWAY a key feature (file upload for logged in users) without
   notifying FREE VERSION USERS?? That seems…..very nasty. Just remove a feature
   and let us Figure it out? Nasty Man.
