There seem to be a number of steps for adding images. I'm still working on it myself. headscratch

Part of *my* problem is, well, when I drag an image over, it disappears from the box. Dean says the image is there (I do see it below the box) and it's out of the way to enable you to add more images.

I think I hit done and then preview and I got nothing. computerdeath

You need to put the caption in BEFORE dragging the image into the box.

Rustoholic said put caption in ALL CAPS. grin

Ok. I tried it and it was a bit strange. Glad I read these posts.

Did do the text first. When I hit, "select a file to attach," it just kinda bullies its way into that square. It automatically wraps it up ... fortunately, the images are lined up at the bottom.

It will be interesting to see how to change or move the images. computerdeath

Now this one would be great for a video.

Peggy,

I did a test of the click/drag attachment method you and others suggested (instead of using the select from file location box option I have been using) through the Attachment Manager.

Process does work for me, although I had to shrink down the forum screen size so I could see and click/drag the file I wanted from the stored directory window. You have to be able to see the file/source window to be able to use click/drag.

I give!

I use the full editor, go to the attachments, chose and add a picture. The picture appears on the bottom of the attachment thingy.
Then I hit done. The only thing I get is the picture link address. ohwell
“Oh” I’m using a iPad!

Jim, iPad is what I use 99% of the time. Full editor, attachment manager, choose file. Click on photo, let it load, click done, click on post reply. Works every time.
