Havent mastered this process so maybe someone can help.
I can see how to upload and attach pics, Seems a bit long winded, but I can manage that, but then a bunch of pics appear after the post.
But if I am writing a screed and want to include a pic within the text then what is the process.?
That's a good question
Attachment 28256
Did that work?
Seemed to.. All I did was write the screed with a few line returns where I wanted the picture and then put the curser where I wanted the picture and hit the 'insert image' button.
If you edit an existing post the pictures will appear wherever the "ATTACH=CONFIG]28256[/ATTACH" entries are placed (I've removed the leading and trailing [ ] brackets to make it show up as text for this example). You can move, copy, paste as much as you like.
Thanks
and it worked with a first image
Second image though (treated in the same way) , ended up as an attachment instead
What am I doing wrong??

Not sure. Maybe it's the image format. Are they all JPEGs?
Upload an image

Write some blather. Upload another
Attachment 28263
More blather.
Seems to work for me. Each time I want to add apicture I'm hitting the insert image button, then using 'from computer', 'basic uploader', 'browse', selet an image then 'Upload file(s)'.
That's funny! I added an image while editting to check the tab titles, deleted it and now it's turned into an attachment I can't get rid of.
All were Jpegs
Wonder if it has anything to do with windows version or maybe browser
Will have another go later .
Wonder if Admin might want to clean up my messy posts a bit
I've just found that under 'settings' there's a list of attachments and I've managed to delete the unwanted one from above. Not sure how images in-line with the text and images stored as attachments can be moved around. Maybe somebody else will be able to enlighten us both.

What size are the files because if too large they won't upload. I get this all the time when In take pictures with my phone which takes Hd pics which give largee files size, so i just load them into paint and resize then save.
Will have a look at sizes Jazz. What is the limit?
Not sure if I'm honest but think it's about 2MbQuote:

...note the maximum width and/or height for images though: 2048 x 1536 pixels.
"Insert Inline" adds images to a post in the way your looking for...bottom right of the popup window.
Am presuming you meant 500kB there Lee.
On that basis I will try to cleam up my thread :smug:
No no 500mb :)
I think I have got there AT LAST.
I had to resize my pics to less that 500kB
Then select the "insert image "icon in the header which gives you a popup which you can then select and upload your image
Then go to "manage uploads" (only available if I "go advanced")
That gives a further window in which you can select and tick your required pic , drag it into the uploads part of the window
and only then you can "insert inline "
It's more likely the width and height limitation that you fell foul to.
Easiest way for resizing if you're using Windows, is to use Paint. It's resize option lets you select either percentage or pixels.
I use paint to resize , and with pics under 500kB I have managed to include in thread so I think it was more to do with procedure than size .
A Sticky topic explaining how to do it would help.
Not exactly intuitive in this forum software ICW othere forums I visit
I am still struggling with this .
Pics seem to disappear from text for no reason then reappear in the attachment block . This can make nonsense of the text.
Can someone write (in words of one syllable) a procedure for including a pic in the text.
I have to say that I have no difficulty with this on other sites but the attachment manager here makes hard work in comparison with other platforms
John,
My way of doing it:
First write your text what you want to say.
to insert image press enter twice to start new line. look for icon Insert image above press "Chose file" from computer find the folder you have the image in select it, then click on Upload file (files) Attachment 28422 it will place it wherever your cursor is. or you can move it down
Attachment 28422 by placing your cursor lower like this.
hope it helps
