Since this new format, I have trouble getting more than ONE photo to actually attach to the post.
I have been trying to put 3 images on a post, and when I hit Submit, 2 of those images will disappear.
Who can tell me what I am doing wrongly ?....mm

mm,
I have never used the attachment tab before this morning.. I didn't know it was there. In this reply, I have tried to attach two photos. I did them one at a time, in other words, I attached one, and then the second one. The size is 163 KB for the Express SR, and 229 KB for the Spree with basket. Both photos have the green checkbox on in the status column. I did not click on the Place inline buttons. Let's see what happens. I didn't use the preview button, rather I hit the Submit button.

I see that even though I didn't click on the "inline buttons" the photos are displayed inline. As further info, I am using Mozilla Firefox on Windows 8.1 as my browser and the same to attach the files.

Also, I didn't drag the photos into the message feature, rather I selected them one at a time by clicking on their names in the file system by clicking on the "add files" button in the attachment tab.

No need to resize, just use https://postimages.org/

Upload your photo there, then copy the url under "DIRECT LINK" between the "IMG" code

...Example

The following image is posted by clicking the picture of the picture in the editor and pasting the postimage URL in between using:

Code: Select all

[img]https://i.postimg.cc/6QBKS00d/Express-SR.jpg[/img]
The result is this:

So again, that would be:

Code: Select all

[img][/img]
With

Code: Select all

https://i.postimg.cc/6QBKS00d/Express-SR.jpg
Posted in between the "IMG" brackets, like so..

Code: Select all

[img]https://i.postimg.cc/6QBKS00d/Express-SR.jpg[/img]
To get this:

I'd say, go ahead and practice here in this topic. Once you get it down, it's easy as pie.

Postimage.cc works great for me, and it even has a few links for different sites.

After you upload a pic it looks like this:

And then scroll down, and you'll find the links. I use "hotlink for forums":
