Deleting images from thread. Help please.

[susan2015]

I use to be able to delete text & images when i removed a doll from sale.
I managed to add "please delete" but the image attachments wont delete. There is not an option to add any online pictures or delete them now. When i remove a doll from sale i like to remove the images attached to that listing.
Many thanks for any help. Susan

When you use the attachment feature to put an image into a post one hasn't been able to remove for a long time the attached images directly by editing the post unless you choose to place them "inline". I do consider that a bug and on the list to fix but that hasn't changed anytime recently. You can still put images in the img brackets instead to display images just like it's been done for years...you do need to put the address of the image in brackets

Code: Select all

Btw, when you use the attachment feature to upload images to your posts you'll notice you can place them "inline" by clicking on the inline button which embeds them straight into your post and you can edit them. If you choose not to place them "inline" the image shows up in a box with the text "attachment" on it. You can still remove attachments where after you click on the edit button to edit your post you click on the attachment tab which is what you initially used to upload the images. You may have to select to add a new image for the list of images you have attached in your post to show but this is where you delete them

Thank you so much Steve.
I managed to delete the pictures by adding inline which enabled me to delete all as recommended.
Grateful thanks for your help Susan

no problem...I personally prefer to do inline since it looks better and you can put text or whatnot between the images.
