Can't insert images?

[chiffonodd]

Clicking/tapping on the image button won't let me insert pictures as normal . . . used to be an option to simultaneously insert/upload by selecting image on phone or desktop. Now it will only set me insert photo via url?? Happened just today I think. Pls help.

Oh wait now it's back. Did I do something? How do you use this dread machine.

Did you accidentally hit the icon with a magnifying glass and sheet of paper in the top right of the reply box?

 

[chiffonodd]

Nossir I did not. Also, this is very strange, but I've just discovered that the normal image button will let me upload/insert images on this thread, but it won't on another thread I'm looking at. Do threads have different rules??

As far as I know, they don't have different rules. @Edge

The other thread is technically in the KKF sponsor's market, is that like a separate thing?

Hi @Edge, are members (perhaps just those without a KKF Sponsor badge?) unable to drop-insert pictures when commenting on posts in the Kitchen Knife Forums Sponsor Market sub-forum? Whenever I try to post a picture in response to any thread in the Sponsor Market, I only have the option to insert picture via URL:

But every other thread I try, outside of the Sponsor Market, I have the option of inserting pictures directly via drop/upload:

Regular members do not have the permission to post attachments in the Sponsor Marketplace. Just messages containing text.

Sometimes my new phone takes photos that are too big and I have to export them at lower res to get the insert buttons to appear.

Got it, that's what's going on. Thanks for the explanation.

Thanks, in this case it was actually because it was KKF Sponsor Market (regular members can't attach or insert files/images, only text)

I also have this problem if the picture is “live”. Gotta make sure that’s turned off (for iPhone anyway)

Same here. The option is grayed out. Did I press the wrong buttons somewhere?
