Can't post pics anymore.

[VSS]

Any idea why I can't post pictures anymore? Is it a problem at my end, or a problem with my account on the site?

Make sure you haven’t turned off your WYSIWYG editor first of all…

 

[VSS]

How can I tell whether that's turned on or off?

 

[csl]

Press it and see whether icons turn on or off!

OK, so the icons go faint if I press it, and brighten if I press it again, so presumably it was switched on. So that's not the problem.

2nd guess is try deleting temporary internet files then. Note that you will most likely need to log in again though.

How are attaching a photo? What actually happens when you try to attach a picture?

Is this not a case of having already too many pics stored and a limit reached? Certainly used to be the case? I used to have to go back and delete old ones to allow more?

I don't think so. I don't often post pics, and I don't store them on the site.

I click on the photo icon at the top of the reply box, and a pane appears giving me the option to drop image or click here. Usually, clicking on that takes me to my album and I click on the photo I want. Now it won't redirect me to my album. It just crashes.
Might be my phone that's the problem. I will try later with the laptop. Except my photos are mostly on my phone.

I think there is a good chance it’s a problem with your temporary internet files then.

OK. I'll have to get my IT Technician (aka wife) on the case, because that's getting too complicated for me.

I've deleted all temporary internet files from the browser on my phone and it still won't work
I guess I'll just have to email pics from phone to laptop, and post them from there. Bit of a nuisance.

What about if you click "Attach files"?

I just tried that. No luck. I go to the picture that I want to attach, click on it, and it just takes me back to a blank reply screen.

New phone time.

New phone time.

That's what I feared. Only just getting the hang of this one after five years.

My phone is from 2016... it's still going... for the time being...

Presumably you have tried turning it off and on again?

Frequently!

I’ve just had this problem.

I posted pictures earlier in the day and now can’t.
