3. Once the "Upload Images" screen shows your image, click "Insert" and the image will be inserted into your post.

Great write up. Thank you. I've been able to do that successfully from my computer, however, I'm wondering if there is a way to do it from my Samsung "android" smart phone? Any help would be appreciated -thank you.

I would be curious to know myself. As it is I have to send from phone to my email, download and insert here.

How to attach picture to reply using phone based web!
 

Ok, Im going to attempt to help others out with this.
Remember, this may very from device to device. I am running HDF on an Samsung android device.
I want to help as much as I can, feel free to ask what you may, if I dont know how to answer your question, at least I can try =)

Step 1
Assuming you are already at your USERCP home page
Make sure you are in the mobile version by going to the bottom left of your screen and hitting the following
*DROP DOWN BUTTON*

THEN MAKE SURE "MOBILE ONE" IS SELECTED

Once your in, go to the posting of your choice and.....

....HIT REPLY

THEN THE PICTURE ATTACHMENT BUTTON

AT THIS POINT YOU SHOULD BE AT A SCREEN LIKE THIS, HIT MY DEVICE (BECAUSE YOU WILL BE ATTACHING PICS FROM YOUR DEVICE)

https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.hdf...d23afc47a2.png

DEPENDING ON YOUR DEVICE YOU WILL BE ASKED TO POINT WHERE YOU WANT TO GET THE PICTURES FROM

AFTER YOU HAVE SELECTED THE PICTURE OF YOUR CHOICE (FOR INSTRUCTIONAL PURPOSES, I CHOSE MY 07 FXD :D)
NOW HIT INSERT

AND THATS IT, THE LINK TO YOUR PICTURE SHOULD BE SHOWN ON YOUR REPLY BOX.

Sorry for the long post, enjoy a picture of my FXD :icon_dance-tap:

Thanks for all that info but now my brain (what is left of it) hurts. :icon_duck:

Done all of the set up procedures, no go...
 

I use to be able to post pictures with no problem until recently. I have done all of the editor setup procedures, they are the same as when I was able to upload pictures with no problem.
I do the picture upload and press the "Insert" button but nothing happens on the "Reply to thread" window.
What else could be the matter?


Windows 7 Op system.

I have no problem inserting pics into a post on the traditional or mobile view. But I can't insert into PMs, I get this message:
https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.hdf...b3d1b6a07b.png

I believe my settings are correct:

I have seen this message way too often. There is a workaround however it does involve more steps.

-In your control panel go to your album (whichever album you want your photo in)

-Manually upload your photo that you are wanting to send

-Hit the "SHARE" button and then "COPY" to copy the URL link

-Paste URL link in the popup window when HDF is asking for it

Bada bing bada boom.

You got yourself a picture in your message!

I have the same issue. Picture used to load fine, now nothing. I also use Windows. Not 7, but I have the version previous to the new one. Will updating to, Windows 10 help?

Any fix for the PM issue? It isn't worth all the URL shenanigans.
