Chuck Most Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 I can put up attachments just fine... the button is there, the functions are there, it's just when I add the link to the image and click to add it into the post, all I get is circle, circle... no dot dot, no cootie shot. It was working fine last week- I just noticed it last night. I've tried all the old fixes that worked in the past (clear cache, enable cookies, etc..), and still nada.

Ace-Garageguy Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 I've come upon another little interesting glitch. Upon the site directing me to an "error 404" page and dumping my response, I logged out (yes, I HAD saved the response in MS Word before hitting the "submit post" button).When I logged back on later and tried to enter the saved response in the thread, when I clicked on "reply to this topic", my post that had been 'lost' came up in its entirety...leading me to believe this software DOES have the ability to save a post for editing or preview, if we just knew how to turn it on, or to access it intentionally.That said, when I tried to post the response, the site again took me to the "error 404" page without allowing the post to actually post.

Thank You for the compliment Gregg ? This kit is manufactured by REVIVAL of Italy they are rather trick to assemble for the instructions are very vague the screws are the size of what you would find in a Swiss Watch ? REVIVAL website list these kits for around $200.00 but look around and shop and and get a Deal for about $125.00 They take a lot of Patience but if painted correctly they become a Beautiful Model of a wonderful Subject of the Past Again Thanks for your Interest XJ6?

StevenGuthmiller Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Well, at least I know now I'm not crazy!Been trying to post photos from Photobucket all week Using the "insert other media" button, & all I get is that annoying, hypnotic swirling pain in the rear end!Hope this can be fixed soon.I really hate posting from my computer files!Worked just great right after the change over to the new layout. Something obviously happened since then. Still works fine on other sites. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrObsessive Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Alright, let's see if this works.................... Looks like I still have to "right click" and copy the image........then I can paste it here. I'm going to stay with that method for me as it's the least crazy making. I still get the endless "swirly ball" if I try to insert the URL into the "Insert Image From URL"................. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt T. Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 I know older browsers are problematic, but just in case you wanted to look into it...I use IE8 on my Monday/Wed/Fri computer and I can't reply to topics or send PMs. I turned off compatibility view and that allows me to see everything perfectly, but when I try to reply there is just the gray bar with "Notify me of replies" and no white screen in which to type.Also, anywhere there is an arrow dropdown (User Profile, Create, etc.) I can't activate the dropdown.Thanks for the new look and all you do to keep this great forum up and running!

lysleder Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 I don't seem able to edit quotes. If a post has a long body of text, and some pictures and so on, and I only want to comment on a small part of it - Then I used to be able to remove unwanted sections of the quoted post. Is there a way to do this that I don't know about. The "Name that tune" tread in the community forum is a good example of how things can easily get messy and out of hand.Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

my66s55 Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 You can right click copy and paste from Photobucket as long as you open the picture first and not try from the library's files. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

afx Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 I can't post Fotki images either. The "Insert other media" method worked fine after the transition but not now. Watched the spiral for a full (2) minutes and the image wouldn't open/upload. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ace-Garageguy Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 (edited) Photobucket works for me in Chrome just like it always did (which is the same as it worked in Firefox). Upper photo direct from the "library" thumbnail (IMG option), lower photo opened and "IMG" option selected.

StevenGuthmiller Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 Hmm ... Draggon, that method does seem to work. Wonder what we're doing wrong. ;-) We're not doing anything wrong. There is a website problem that needs fixing. There are all sorts of ways to fudge our way through getting photos on here, but they're not the correct way. I'm sure the moderators are working on the problem & will have things up & running again in short order. I can post photos on every other site on the planet the "normal" way from photobucket, I'm confident we'll all be able to do the same here soon.

BIGTRUCK Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 Dont know, but yesterday I did a drag and drop and it stopped me at 4 pictures stating limit was reached. I then posted it and started another thread to post 1 more picture. It took the 1 picture put it with the other 4 making 1 thread .with 5 pictures Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
