Photos, how do you attach them ?

Every time I try to attach photos (using the paper clip icon) I see them below the text “message” box. I type in my message, then click “create” ....then the whole lot disappears (I’ve been on here for almost 20 years so not a newbie)

I think there might be a problem with it Jen. I've tried to put a couple of pics on via the app in the last few minutes, and it's saying 'success' but nothing has happened. I've reported my post to MN to ask.

Thanks Spongebob, I tried yesterday too and decided it must be my lack of technology knowledge.

I thought it was just me. I'm using the mobile app on my phone. I tried replying to 2 threads yesterday and attached photos to my replies. I clicked the send icon, saw the whirling circle and the posting message, but my replies completely disappeared.

I'm on mobile too 1066. I have relayed more details to MN and techy is working furiously on it as we speak actually I made the last bit up Grin

Do you normally have to copy and paste the photo links which appear below the message box or do they automatically appear in the post?

I just snapped a picture of my (v late) lunch to see if it works. No problems here. I use chrome on android.

Thanks for flagging this issue, everyone - and yes, of course our Tech team are working furiously hard at solving this issue @SpongeBobJudgeyPants Grin

Hope to have an update for you all soon as we appreciate it's more than a tad tedious.

Thanks for your patience. Smile

..but not on the gardening threads where I wanted to post 🤔

I've just tried twice on this thread but nothing. Really frustrating because I wanted to add a recipe that somebody had asked for on the be-ro thread.

jenthehen · 11/04/2020 13:33

How weird 1066? Just an idea but could we post what we want to post on this page then write a message to ask them to look on this thread for the info/pictures..

I couldn't even post a photo on this thread. I've only tried on the app though; I haven't tried on the website.

SpongeBobJudgeyPants · 12/04/2020 14:19

I gave up on the app yesterday, 1066. Weirdly I was also trying to post a recipe. Perhaps that's the problem! Grin

SpongeBobJudgeyPants · 12/04/2020 14:19

When I went on my laptop it was fine though.

TimMumsnet · 16/04/2020 09:03

Hi @jenthehen - sorry to hear that! Which version of the app are you using, Android or iOS?

jenthehen · 16/04/2020 11:47

iOS
