FAQ How to attach a document

[Brendan Burgess]

On the bottom left hand side of the post, you will see the Attach files icon

 

[ClubMan]

Several sub-forums are missing the Attach files button and the option to upload/embed an image (only the option to link to an online embedded image via a URL is available):

Were those sub-forums supposed to have been updated to add the options to attach files and embed images? They still seem to be missing these.

 

[Brendan Burgess]

Brendan, the home energy forum does not have the " attach file" icon. Could it be added please. Thank you.

 

[Brendan Burgess]

Thanks for reporting.

Is it working now.

Brendan

 

[waterman]

can this be added to the Service Provider forum please?

I want to post a question and need to attach a file to help explain.

 

[Brendan Burgess]

I hope I have fixed that now?

@Brendan Burgess asked me to audit the forums again to check which ones still don't allow the insertion/embedding of images and/or attachment of files/documents and here is the list:

  Only Frequent Posters can recommend a service. Others may ask for a recommendation.

(Another oddity - why do only some of the forum links "unfurl" and show a preview while others are presented as simple text links?!)

 

[Brendan Burgess]

@ClubMan thanks for the list.

My new year's resolution was to fix this.

I think it's fixed now.

If anyone notices any forums where Frequent Posters can't post attachments or images, please let me know.

Brendan

 

[ClubMan]

Thanks @Brendan Burgess.
Happy new year.
I never knew what you were Jewish.

Can you try again now.

 

[ClubMan]

Can you try again now.

Works now - thanks.

Indo - "There is no cost of living crisis for majority of people in Ireland says IBEC CEO"

So you prefer the media impression that everyone is in dire poverty in this country? Where did I say or even imply that? :rolleyes: And even if there's a cost of living "crisis" that doesn't necessarily mean dire poverty. Living beyond one's means is one way to create a cost of living crisis...
