Can not attach a file to Forum Post

HavosHavos Posts: 5,614

I can not attach any files to the forum posts at the moment. I can post as normal, but attachments will not upload. I can click on "Add Attachment", and "Choose File", and the later allows me to browse to a file on my drive, but it does not attach after I select it. I have tried on two different PCs and different internet connections, and it does not work, so I assume the issue is connected to my account. I have also tried two different browsers (Chrome and Firefox), and I have also tried to logout and login again, all without success.

Has anyone suffered a similar issue? Is there anything in the settings I may have set accidently that would disable the adding of attachments?

    Are you sure it didn't upload and attach? Lately when I try to attach a file it doesn't appear to upload and attach; BUT after I hit 'submit' the attacment appears in my post.

    I have not tried that. I wanted to put something in the Fluidos thread, but without the images my post would have been meaningless, so I did not post it. I will try your idea, thanks

    UPDATE: Ok, that worked, so at least I have a workaround. It is a shame though that you can not see the image first, it is always nice to review the image before posting to be sure I picked the right one. It used to work.

    It comes and goes randomly for me :)

    I've just posted a thread with an attachment. The attachment didn't appear in the preview, but did appear after I had submitted the post.

    This has been happening on and off for months now. When you submit, the image is there.
