    Bumping Classified ad - Photos now lost ?

    So since I last bumped my ad, (link below) I have had a few PM's telling me no photos show.

    I do know they worked recently before, and funny thing - I DO see them on my computer at the ad, but NOT on another in the house.

    How do I edit to re add, or what do I do ?

    Thank you, Marc

    Are the photos on Sawmill Creek's server or are they on a 3rd party server like photobucket or imgur? I too see the text "attached thumbnails" but nothing below that. Uploading photos to Sawmill Creek is more convoluted than it needs to be IMO but it works well. I know Keith is close to switching forum software so maybe that will improve.

    I just viewed your ad in "advanced edit" and find no evidence of photos. Neither links nor attachments. I see you last edited the OP on 22 July at 07:43. There were originally photos linked from someplace called "garagejournal", but that code is not in the current post. I suggest you upload the photos to SMC in a new reply post...which will also "bump" the ad.

    It appears Garage Journal is a members only forum and non-members cannot see photos.

    Jim sed above..."There were originally photos linked from someplace called "garagejournal", but that code is not in the current post."

    I will attempt to re post the photos in the ad tommorow.

    I am NOT good at this kind of computer picture business thing.

    The images were available for others to see UNTIL I "bumped" the ad.

    But all the needed info ...Part # ...etc... is in the text of the ad.

    We took effort to take very good photos, there were about 4 of them, now somehow lost.

    Will try to correct tomorrow when Missus can help.

    OK, this is really difficult, at least for me.

    Even if I manage to put images in my existing ad, very few will scroll down to see them.

    So I do not want to do that.

    And I cannot edit my original ad to include them there.

    Don't know why other posts can be edited at any time, but not in Classifieds.


    So, because of above, I want to post a totally new seperate ad, with proper viewing images, then delete my existing ad.

    I have done looking around the site, including advanced search "posting images" and have dead end.

    SOMEONE please tell me how to put in the pictures I have in my computer in a NEW ad PLEASE.
