You can click 'choose files' at the bottom of the text box, which opens up your files. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

From my laptop when I'm automatically logged in I don't see it. I can't get out of it and can't use my phone to access the site now. Let me double check with my ad partner. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finally got round to trying this, only to end up more confused than ever. As far as I can see (and believe me I've looked) there is no "choose files" option in any text box. Perhaps someone can provide further help ... or confirm that posting images from anything other than url's is impossible. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I click the text box, to post a comment/reply, there is an attachment section at the bottom; it says, "Drag files here to attach, or choose files...". This is on my laptop, so it may be different for an iPad? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only get a drop down box offering two options - insert existing attachment - or - insert image from url 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,129 Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Let me have a look at the settings. Obviously we have to be careful with regard to what members can attach - both file type and size. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankie 8,129 Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Just now, Bill said: Still the same as it was. Tried logging out and in again, no change. Bottom left of reply editor box - drag files to attach or choose them manually by clicking the link? Is that option not there for you? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
