Can you give us a link to a thread where you tried to post pictures?

Tried several times here, I press add photo, photo uploads, but does not show up i the thread.
Did you press “insert photo?”

That option is not available on my phone or computer, there is only an upload button.

I figured out now, that the insert option only appears when I upload more than one photo, when I upload one photo, it's only the delete function that appears, strange. Thanks guys 😀

I am really curious for you to try something. I wonder if it is a hidden button- look at my post above to see where “insert” is located. Upload one image and tap your phone screen where “insert” should be located. I’m curious if the button is hidden for you.

The reason I bring this up is because the “save/delete” buttons are hidden (which you’ll see in my two photos below). Despite them being hidden, you can still interact with them, and so I’m wondering if this is the case for you.

Perhaps those first two are not valid image files. The icons look funny.

Taken with my phone, same as the others that upload ok. Maybe it's just a glitch.

I've had the same problem with images not being recognized as images on upload; it's pretty consistent from my phone. @dsio I can probably reproduce this if you want help debugging.

Yes, it seems to be the file type, that sometimes is not known, took a screenshot of the same photo, and that one inserts fine, so that's probably how I have to do it.

When you upload from your phone, use the Add Photos bottom at the bottom of the page. You have to wait for picture to be saved into the forum before clicking the insert photo button that shows up.

If you are linking a photo with a URL, use the photo button on the top ribbon.

I recommend using the preview feature to see if the picture shows up. I can’t see any codes in your deleted posts, so I can’t tell what is wrong here.

Unfortunately I can't reproduce it right now. In the past, it's been common that fresh photos from my phone are not recognized as images on upload (and can't be inserted). Phone is a Pixel 4XL, fully updated.

But here a test which works because what's a thread without photos?

It’s been a tricky one to reproduce, I’ve tried jpeg, png and heic but they all seemed to work I’m wondering if its something caching related atm
