Problem posting with photos attached.
« on: September 26, 2017, 07:48:21 AM »
Hi. I just wanted to check if anyone else has been having problems attaching photos to their posts lately? Or is it just me?

Would be great to know so I can work on any connectivity problems that might be the issue on my end.

I just tested attaching a file to the forum and it's working for me.

If you haven't yet, try logging out of the forum and close browser. Then open it again and try the attachment again. If that doesn't work, try clearing your browser's cache to see if that helps.

I can't attach photos in my post tonight. So your not the only one with the problem. If you got it fixed, how did you do it?

Wanted to post this tip just in case any others may be having issues with attaching and inserting photos into their posts.

Make sure you have the profile layout option "Show WYSIWYG editor on post page by default" is not checked. If this option is checked it will make the attachments not work correctly.

Go to: Home Menu > Profile > Modify Profile > Look and Layout

Thanks for the tip. I think my issue was the internet connection timing out on me.
