Is this what should be happening or is there some way of maintaining the paperclip? What device and browser are you using? When I click on reply the text box opens and stay open. I'm using Edge browser on Windows 11 pc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grumps123 Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 I'm using Edge now and the same happens. No paperclip retained. Do the company that provide this software monitor it to see issues and then provide solutions? (for our moderators) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A support ticket could be raised, but I'd suspect there's something in your machine/browser settings that is the issue. If you click on 'other media' then 'insert existing attachment', you should be able to navigate to an image and then drag it into the text editor.

I have since tried on my wife's IPAD and the same happens, paperclip appears and then gone almost immediately. From that result, I surmise that it is not my laptop set up that is causing this issue. Your other suggestion, it appears to me that you can only get existing images within that file(s), it doesn't appear to accept images from other sources. Not having any success with this new software. (with regards to images) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilbo2 Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 I just tried this on my iPad for you using Brave and Safari and it works fine. I wonder if there is something on your account itself that is stopping you from adding attachments. Maybe a mod can help you check your account @Ratch ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
96RAF Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 Look in your account and see if your attachment limit is busted. Admin is looking at resetting all accounts with no limit. If your limit is bust then use the workarounds to post images. Several,routes already identified and posted on the farious thread. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately you cannot delete attachments as they are only links back to forum posts that you can either giew or download. It will get sorted when Hornby Towers is repopulated on Monday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominic Thomas Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 Paper clip stays until the post is completed for me. I used the ‘Add Files’ button for the one below just to test, as Heather had done earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominic Thomas Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 My post above was in reply to Grumps’ comment about the vanishing paperclip. When I submitted it, a whole raft of messages appeared which I hadn’t seen before. Now, I had only just opened the ‘Up & running’ topic so I would have expected to see all the posts/comments. The comment about attachment limits was very revealing. I’m at 92% which is worrying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happily, the new forum allows links to photo sharing sites. The image of the Miles Master I linked to, hosted in my Flickr account, doesn’t show up in my attachment quota. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dominic Thomas Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 (edited) Has the Attachment issue been solved? Looks like it because I can’t see my limit anymore. Oh no. Found it, still at 92%. Edited February 21 by Dominic Thomas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grumps123 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 It still doesn't appear to have been sorted. I still have the same vanishing paperclip and my attachment limit is still over 100%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What About The Bee Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 @Ratch I am well over my attachment limit, primarily because I believe an image is worth more than all the descriptive words I can try. In combination, fine, but words alone make it difficult to communicate centuries old information, as there is no reference frame There is a work around. Step 1: Place the image into "Gallery" Step 2: In your post, "add existing attachment", "attachment location", "gallery". Voila! As proof, I am at 123% of attachment limit. Here is an image Bee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
