Hello,
I was wondering if any body could help me. I'm tring to post a picture in a for sale forum that I previously posted in another forum, but the attachments screen say that the picture is already an attachment. How do I post the same picture in 2 separate forums. I have a knifemaker membership.
Thanks
Jason
 
Just copy the image address from your earlier post and use
tags:

attachment.php


Use the "quote" button to look at my post to see what I did if that isn't clear.
 
JT, you're attaching the URL for the thread. You need to copy the URL for the picture.

Go to the thread where the picture shows up and QUOTE it. This will allow you to copy the correct URL for the picture (attachment).

Then go back to where you want to show it in the new thread and PASTE it in.
 
I have used the same photos in many posts. But the easiest way for me is to go to the User CP then scroll down last item on left is the attachments. Click that, then scroll down again and click view thumbnails, find your picture, click the picture, it will open in new window and then you can copy the address bar at the top of the page. Then, I go back to where I wanted to use it and click the image box in the reply box or new thread box. Paste in the address bar in the pop up box. Other way, is right click the photo on old thread and copy image url. Then paste in new image pop up box.

Hope this helps,
Jim

The reason I go to the User CP, is that I can not remember what thread I used the photo in, so the attachment list has all of them. But only if I view them as thumbnails and find out where they are. :o
 
It seems my computer was not allow the copy/post, I had to reset some stuff and now is working.
Thanks for all the help
