im trying to post pics.. tried both methods, none work. please fix, i thought the reason to have a built in photo uploader was to simply upload photos.. no i dont want to use a third party website...

I bet 80% of the community here don't even scroll to the very bottom.... Me being one of them.... I see the thread now you mentioned it . Why isn't it a announcement like the 'new' mobile app renovation was? I use chrome too... Won't work either way... Very fustrating . Not trying to be a dick but I'm pissed for trying to get this shit for hours

My threads are always at the top so you can't use the excuse you didn't look two threads down lol
i don't make announcement because those are not for bug issues their are used for things like
new mobile apps
contests
new news
not for bug problems we have support for bug problems I am always here to help with a work around or post a bug as soon as I find it just check the known bug issues thread
or you can make you own but don't accuse me of not telling users when I did :(

uploading pics used to work so what made the bug? Something that used to work that now doesn't work in my opinion s news...

When I used chrome today it worked are you on a computer or mobile
are you using basic uploader?

not sure what you mean bug I've tried both methods..
vbulletin is having extreme issues the last time they tried to make a patch
a bug means a site problem its a short term for "software bug"
A software bug is an error, flaw, failure, or fault in a computer program or system that causes it to produce an incorrect or unexpected result, or to behave in unintended ways

when vbulletin updated their last patch it caused riu and other vbulletin depdant websites to have bugs
this is why we had to remove our "likes" because of the new patch it the likes causes our website to crash constantly it was storing too much data crashing the system so we had to remove the likes system
it also caused our photo uploader not to work which is why we changed it today to just basic uploader,

its not considered news because vbulletin is constantly updating and uploading new patches which is causing the website to go haywire, its not news , news is the new riu app, we have a support section for bug related issues that is what support is. that is what the admin wants, we can argue until were blue int he face but hes not going to update and make announcements for everyproblem ever occuring on riu, he will use the support forum and had his mods work and help members which is what imd oing now

of course it isnt my fault im just a volunteer global mod i do absolutely no coding and nothing to do with the website aside from taking time out of my day to help members work around a non working website. and deleting spam, and sorting out peoples bs drama.

i know its not optimal and i get that its frustrating but i assure you it will get fixed in due time, but until then we do with what we have :)

I tried again with Chrome and Explorer............still doesn't work from my computer. I've downloaded hundreds and hundreds of photos here so I'm well versed on how to do it.

I even lowered the file size to be sure it wasn't that........just doesn't work anymore.

Can you give us a time frame on when this stuff is supposed to be fixed?

You understand how frustrating it is to have to upload every pic one by one, Its starting to be one thing after another all of a sudden with this site.


I have also read that site having the same issue have fix things by changing to different versions of vbulletin.

Not trying to be rude its just this has been awhile now that things have been jacked., and they seem to be getting worse.

ive tried it on 2 computers , 1 smart phone, 1 ipad, 1 iphone, 1 laptop and 1 tablet
if its not working for you in the way i shown you, than i can only assume its your computer

For people who continue to have problems uploading pic's, here's what you can do to get it to work..........

1. Go to "MY Rollup" and click on General Settings...

2. Go to "Message Editor Interface" and click on "Standard Editor"

3. Save setting if necessary.


Now you'll be good to go...................
