I am out of space for attachments. How do I go back and delete old attachments to give me more space?

Find your name at the top right of the screen. Click the down arrow and a selection box opens. Select MY SETTINGS from the list. When the next screen opens find MANAGE ATTACHMENTS on the left side of the screen, and click it. You can delete images here.

However using a online service such as photobucket is a far better way to attach images and they will stay linked for as long ans you leave them on the service.

finally, an upgrade. I think it looks great. More threads on the main page is nice. Everyone will grow to like it.

The main difference between the versions that I've noticed is the graphics. The search engine is even better than it was before with new criteria added.

On the downside it only allows 2 photos to be inserted per post, I hope it did not delete or hide photos from old posts with more than 2 images. It there anyway to increase the limit? Since many of the debates here are over images this is severly limiting. Since links to images hosted on other sites adds very little if at all to bandwidth I don't understand why such a restriction was added.

How do I view all the posts in a thread without clicking each one individually?

Sooo, Craig .... when you delete an attachment, does it disappear from the post where you attached it, and all the replies where others left it included??

Gee, a girl disappears for a few days and comes back to a whole new thing ... I had just finally gotten the last version all figured out ... mostly. LOL.

Bests,

Barb :-)

You should be able to load a maximum of 5 images per post.

That should be the case, but I'm not sure.

[Evan Burton]

To manage your attachments or change the type of Forum view you see, first go to your settings.

Go to the top right hand corner of the board where you see your name. To the right of your name will be a drop down arrow. Click on that and a list will appear. Click on MY SETTINGS.

A new view will appear with a set of options on the left of the page, and up the top of the page. If you want to mange your attachments, select MANAGE ATTACHMENTS.

[Evan Burton]

To change the way you see the Forum, instead of doing the above, go to the tabs at the top and select FORUMS. This will bring up all the Forum options. The first page you see has the view options. Use the TOPIC DISPLAY MODE to select the view you prefer.

Then something's not right or there was a temporary glitch. When I tried to posted my latest reply on the OKC thread (PCs Forum) it told me I was trying to insert more than the allowed number. I kept removing image links until it allowed the message to post. At that it only had 2 links.

Has any one posted a message with 3 - 5 image links since the new format kicked in?

[Bernice Moore]

THANKS FELLAS, FOR YOUR PATIENCE AND INSTRUCTIONS, WE SHALL ALL GET IT WORKED OUT, SOONER OR LATER AND HOPEFULLY YOU SHALL SURVIVE...ALL...B..

I'll check on that but I had the same problem last night though all the settings are for 5 images / media per post.

I'm not sure what is happening right now, but it is not doing what I think it should be doing.

The max number of images per post is 5.

The max number of media per post is 5.

Now I find I can add 5 attachments, so that is correct.

If I try to add 5 IMG tags, though, I can only use 2. I'll have to look at that one.

Next, the attachments should automatically "resize" to a thumbnail if greater than 400 pixels height or width, but the test posts I made still extend the full width / height of the attached image.

*sigh* I'll work on it.
