I regularly upload photos.
Go to "Advanced"
Click on the Paper Clip

Upload to your heart's content (careful of file sizes).

Bracket your attachment number in the [attach] tags if you wish. Ex: [attach]538355[/attach]

Your token missing errors sound like you've taken too long to post. Sometimes it happens to me if I start the message at night, then finish it the next day (login?). Just copy your message text, and start a new post.

Do you have a have a photo host or online source, or are you trying to upload from your computer?


The icon in the composing window is for URLs. Otherwise use the Manage Attachments button below in Additional Options. If you are trying to make a Quick Reply you much click the Go Advanced button.

Tried other browsers or computers?


Do you clear your cache and log in again regularly?


What are you using to try this?

Just logged off and back on-test...
OK-no go. No longer recieve error message; seems to upload in the little box then just disappears-not in the lower box either. [manage attch's] Normally goes into lower box and I drag it into post box.
I have windows 7 browser is "opera" Usually just stay logged on with the computer saving password. I don't have another computer to try and would rather not change servers.

Security token is the system's way of saying "reduce file size".

Pics are downloaded from my phone to the computer. I've no program to edit them/nor is there a size option on my phone
This prob never occured before. Well now it is back to the loopy error message. Very frustrating and depressing.

Something HAS changed; just not on this end. Was delighted with the upgrades-pics from my computer became large on the post; instead of a thumbnail click on. A few weeks later I posted and the pic shrunk to about 1/2 the size. Next.....error error error.

Still just links in IE11(Windows 7). After 4 months I'd have hoped for more than You Tube.

I'd just assumed bike forums had discontinued locally hosting photo attachments to save server space and money, or restricted that option to paying subscribers.

Not a big deal except I had to stop using Google photos as a host after they switched to non-standard URLs and their preferred webp image format. Some forums can't handle either gracefully or consistently. So it's back to using photobucket, imgur or something else that will eventually break the link.

Sorry CC, maybe it's not IE friendly yet? I haven't spayed or neutered my Windows yet.

Still links only in IE 11. my posts will mostly be like high school football on AM radio, one side of the dial is your team and the other is them.
