Copy the “HTML” code for the smiley you pick and paste that code directly into the comment (not as an image!).

Done!

I’m seeing the same thing… IE8.0 and Safari both.

AdLib… #6 is looking good. Thanks a ton. Like you had nothing better to do today!

Same problem in Safari…

The video is always “on top”

Also, ALL THE WAY TO THE BOTTOM of the FAQs are the instructions for putting up an AV.

boomer – I more than understand. In most of my posts for help, I try and be clear to ‘get to it when you can,’ and I mean it.

AdLib…

FYI – PPOV has been down from my POV for an hour, just got back on.

All other websites working.

AdLib – I have the same issue in #2 above. Using IE v8.0… FYI

» Posted By PocketWatch On February 17, 2011 @ 1:56 pm

AdLib-

Since my POST (Business #6) has already been published, I put the URLs for the images in the right places for you. I guess you’ll have to go in and do your magic.

Frankly, my man, better you than me! I know how such things can be frustrating with a bunch of users hollering…

Thanks for your support… really!

PS: I assume, since the URLs are there, readers can see the images if they click on them. For now, better then nothn’! Get to it when you can.

Khirad: Holy Crap!

Well, I have to fix a little lunch. Hope the Admin gods fix this… I’m bummed.

» Posted By PocketWatch On February 17, 2011 @ 12:23 pm

Khirad..

(shrug) I saw a couple of people have had problems with images. MY problem is I took screenshots of an Excel spreadsheet to illustrate a point or two, and they are essential, not decorative.

AdLib can’t just stick a couple of nice pics.. I need to place these jpegs very specifically in the article, or it makes no sense.

Yikes!

ADLIB:

I am having the exact same problem! Just posted article #6 with two custom made jpegs in the body of the post, and they keep disappearing. They are essential to the article. It makes NO SENSE without them!

I also put the status back into Draft Mode for further editing.

I uploaded both images into the Media database, and they are there. I used Insert Image per always. They show up when I put them in, but when I do a Preview, they are gone.

The featured image showed up just fine.

HELP!!!!

AdLib – Ok, I just want my Posts to be as clean as possible. Thanks.

» Posted By PocketWatch On February 17, 2011 @ 8:56 am

Kalima, I understand 🙂

Yes, we are talking about 2 different things. No problem… I know how it is. I’ll ask AdLib or figure it out.

I’m a big boy, I just thought there might be something obvious, and there probably is.

2nd-

Someone else had this problem, and I was trying to help, which is why I took the screenshot.

At this point, I think something else is wrong, from what you say.

Time to listen to the “Pro’s from Dover…” – the Admins.

» Posted By PocketWatch On February 17, 2011 @ 4:37 am

Ok, that’s what I did to make sure people could find them easily. But now the first part of my question….

Can I link these URL’s to a phrase, like “Part 1”, “Part 2” etc. to make it cleaner?

I can read a doc if there is one to figure it out, but I don’t know how at this point.

» Posted By PocketWatch On February 17, 2011 @ 4:31 am

I see this in Dashboard…

If you see something else, I guess the Admins need to get involved.

» Posted By PocketWatch On February 17, 2011 @ 4:27 am

Kalima, I see that. What I’m asking is, when you compose a new post, the related articles aren’t editable, from what I can see. WP just seems to pick them out of the air.

I want to make sure the past posts in the series appear so that people can refer to them. This business series of mine is likely to run to quite a few more, and if people want to actually use them in a practical way, they need to go through them in sequence.

» Posted By PocketWatch On February 17, 2011 @ 4:23 am

Quick question:

I want to provide a link to the other posts in my series without having to paste the entire URL, but instead link the URL to a phrase, like you can do in comments using the ‘caret a and caret /a’…

Is there a document I should read?

Alternatively, is there a way to list them in the “Related Posts” section? I couldn’t see how to do that, if it’s possible.

Thanks in advance.

Truth-

I see this:

Under Media, there is Add New, which is where you go to add a new pic to the library and pick up it’s URL there.

If you don’t see the same thing, I don’t know what to say, except ask AdLib.

:arrow:Truth – Sure!

Step 1: Find a picture (jpeg) that is less than 2megs in size (file size, see File Properties) and remember where it is on your disk.
Step 2: On the right side of the PPOV screen, find “Dashboard” and go there
Step 3: In Dashboard, look to the left and find “Media” and “Add” and go there
Step 4: Follow instructions to upload your picture from Step 1 to the PPOV database. (It’s easy)
Step 5: Note or Copy the URL that is associated with the new picture in the database. You will see that once it’s uploaded in the box labeled “URL” (LOL)

Once uploaded, go back to PPOV by going way up top to the mast of the dashboard and you will see a small link called “PlanetPOV”. Click that to get back to the Planet.

Now reply as normal. You will see just below the SUBMIT button a line that allows you to add a picture to your comment. Click that and paste the URL there. The picture will appear.

AdLib – I’ll sniff around on this one on my own and let you know for future reference. Probably a Java update that got crunched.

Damn AutoUpdate! (Probably… LOL)

I’ve been around computers since the early 70’s and am not afraid to fool around under the hood…

This is a test… do not adjust your set. (I want to see if I’ve got the coding right)

see Tips for Newcomers.

check Everything From “There” Belongs “Here”.

Got a question….

I want to insert a jpeg from my hard drive into a comment.

All the instructions I can find refer to URL’s…

Help?

Teenie, unimportant problem…

My spellcheck no longer seems to be active, and the animated smilies aren’t animated.

Any suggestions? Did I nuke something in a setting somewhere?

No hurry…

I think your gremlin is back….

Maybe the server isn’t pinging the UST site?
