Howard Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 It all seems to be working OK with a picture uploaded from a file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The solution is to resize then post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rutty Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 I had a similar problem which was due the format my phone was saving the photos in. My phone had switched without my knowledge from JPEG to HEIC format. Apparently the HEIC format uses less memory space but the problem is the CT website and lots of other sites don’t recognise HEIC and won’t let you upload them. There are free converters available to convert them back but it’s time consuming. I have now switched my phone back to JPEG. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wendy Dawes Posted April 4 Author Share Posted April 4 So I have changed the setting in my phone to JPEG and still the website refuses to add photos, even ones that I have posted in the past it’s very frustrating don’t know what to do about it other than give up trying 🤷🏻♀️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clive Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 The problem has been found. Each member has an attachment allocation, and when you reach the limit you can not add any more. If anybody wants to check there attachment history, click https://www.clubtriumph.co.uk/attachments/?sortby=attach_filesize&sortdirection=desc and you will get them. Click on the post title on the right in the list to visit the post, and members can then edit their posts. The solution is to host videos on youtube etc, and embed on your posts. Simple guide here https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/171780?hl=en Pictures are best resized down to 1024 pixels wide. To resize pictures, there are plenty of options, google is your friend! Hope that helps. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
