Got stuck trying to preview my post

There's always a first for everything. :beguiled: When I tried to preview a post in my thread, the forum took a long time. When my post was ready to be viewed (hadn't yet submitted it), all the pics were simply displayed as code. None of the images displayed correctly. Everything in the reply box was converted to text/code.

So I deleted all the code, went into manage my attachments (since the forum accepted the images into my account), and added them back into the reply box. Well the first one was fine, but the following 3 images all appeared as attachments. I've corrected this many times in the past, but the forum wouldn't stop showing them as attachments.

Finally I had to start a whole new post, went into manage my attachments to add the photos inline (since my account still has the images) then everything worked properly. Not sure what happened or if there was some type of forum update at the precise moment I tried to preview my initial post. Everything seems to be okay with it now. Just a heads-up in case it happens to someone else.

Similar happened to me last night without the code sequence first. Never was able to get rid of the attachment. Gave up and moved on. Ha!
