Title: how does one post photos in PMs
Post by: Bill W on January 16, 2021, 12:32:25 PM: I'm trying to put some photos in a PM to a member. I have no "attachment and other options" at the bottom and am lost. Is there an alternate way?

Attachments like most people use on here do not work.

Feel free to redesign the software any time you want!

LOL.

Unfortunately Dale buys the software to run the forum. There are some changes that can be made here and there but kind of “is what it is” mostly. Kind of like the “like” button a lot of people want. If it was doable, it would’ve been done.
