Uploading photo's problem

[Derlyn]

Don't know if this is a problem only on my side, but I am not able to upload a photo.

I also cannot reply to a private message.

Any ideas ?


Ok, the answering a private message is sorted, however, I still cannot upload a photo.

Click on the Go Advanced button. Below the message post area, there is an Manage Attachments button.

Once you have uploaded and selected the attachments you want in the post, you can click the Insert Inline button.

Drag/move around to suit from there.

Thanks Dave.
Will give it a try this evening when at the office.

Have a lekker day.

Still not successful. Your method lets me select files that have already been uploaded. My problem is that I cannot upload a file.

My procedure while busy on a post is as follows

1. Click on Insert Image at top of post.
2. Select From Computer.
3. Click on Choose File
4. Select the photo and click Open
5. Click on Upload File

Nothing happens other than the cursor flashing.

Am I doing something wrong ?

You might need to enable pop-up notifications.
There is another possibility, but before I get into that, could you try with another browser - e.g if you normally use Chrome, try Edge.

Have you not exceeded size of the file

No. I have just succeeded using another browser.

Chrome shows me the finger.

Ok Dave, success using another browser. Chrome is not happy doing it.
Any further suggestions ?

I think I must just download chrome again and retry.

Just tried again. Chrome not happy.

Click the three dots in the top right corner.
Select Settings
Select Privacy and Security
Select Clear Browsing Data
Check just the Cached Images and Files box.
Hit Clear Data button.

Chrome should work after that.

Hi Dave.

Nope. Still no go.

Next thing to try -

Click on the lock icon at the left of the URL bar
Click Site Settings
Take a look at what is set as blocked.
You might need to allow Pop-ups and Redirects.
(It is site specific, so enabling it isn't going to affect other sites).

Ok, thanks Dave. Tried your last suggestion, didn't work.

I then removed chrome completely and downloaded again and walla, working.
Something in chrome wasn't too lekker.

Thanks and enjoy the rest of your weekend.
