Posting photos as file attachments
 

I actually created this on one of my other sites, but it will suffice here, I think..

Whenever you start a new post, whether it is a NEW thread or a REPLY to an existing thread, below the section where you type in your text will be a section called Additional Options. In that section will be an area that says Attach Files

Just click on that button that says Manage Attachments


That will take you to a screen that offers you four prompts with a BROWSE button to the right of each of them. Plus there is a display of valid file types that can be uploaded as well as the limitations on each file type.

Click on the BROWSE button, which will display a folder on your hard drive in your own computer so you can find the file that you want to upload.

It is up to you to locate that file, but I assume you will know where you put it on your own hard drive in your system.

After you click on that file you want to attach, and it is then displayed in the area that says File name:, you then click on the Open button on that screen to close it and tell the system here the file you want to attach.

At this time, you can either select three other files to attach in the same method as above, or if there is only one single file to be attached, you then click on that UPLOAD button to actually upload the file from your computer to the server here. PLEASE NOTE: This is the step that people will commonly forget to do and think the system did not do what it was supposed to do. Until you click that UPLOAD button, the file is not yet up on the server.

So once you have successfully uploaded the file you want to attach, you will see a screen similar to this:

If you are done attaching all files, then simply click on the Close this window button to return you to the screen where you are entering in the text of your message. Please note that you will NOT see the photo at this time within the text area of your message you are typing in. The only indication you will see of your attached file(s) at this time will be the name of the file displayed in that Attach Files area of your current screen. Please note that attached files will display at the BOTTOM of your message you are typing.

When you are done typing in your message, simply click on the Submit Reply button, and your photo should be displayed within the message you just typed in.

So, that's IT!

Why can't this be done on a smart phone, I don't have a computer and I have uploaded photos before with my phone but now I can't, did something change?

I can only get it to post one photo per ad using this method. It doesn't matter how many i select to upload, only one shows up. Am I doing something wrong?

are you doing it via a phone? Other users have reported a limit of one photo upload when accessing this site via their mobile device. That could explain it.

Yeah. Tried it again via my desktop and it worked.

Sure - your location is not accurate, and the name shown is questionable (since you signed your post with a different one)

I guess "hkhkjhkj" means "Islamabad" in Pakistani.

If it walks like a spammer, talks like a spammer.......

but how can i post an add?

Hi Sergio, there are a couple ways it can be done, either go to the classifieds section you want to post in and start a new thread or use the classifieds control panel option on your user CP.
These links should help explain how it works:
