iPad question

[EltonFrog]

Is it possible to post photos that are on the iPad on to the site? I can't seem to wok out how to do it. Ta.

Also how do do that clever thing where you put a link on text, so that if you click "here" for example, it takes to the relevant site?

Ta, everso much.

I have an iPad mini and it is really very simple. Just tap on the "post Reply" button and it will bring up a box saying "choose file" tap on this and you will get a choice of "take photo" or "choose existing" the latter will take you your photos, then just tap on the one you want.

To post a link go to the address bar at the top of the selected page. Tap and hold on this until you get a option to "select all", tap this and then you an option to "cut", tap this. The link is then transferred to your "clipboard". Go to the post you are writing leave a space , put your finger on the screen, then release it. You then will get an option to "paste", select that and your link will appear.

Yer I just hit upload file, then you can choose from camera roll and then whether you want full size image or thumbnail view.

Nope don't work. The box comes up but it won't let me choose anything.

Hit Upload a File.

Then select Choose File

Then Select from Existing

Then Camera Roll (if you have default folders setup)

Pick your photos!

I get that box up but the "choose file" button does no highlight and it won't let me upload anything.

Perhaps you have not allowed Safari access to your iPad storage / photo library somewhere along the line

 

[JoeyB]

What iOS version do you have? Are you fully up to date?

 

[EltonFrog]

My iPad is an original one, the software is up to date, I've searched the web and can't seem to find the answer.

I read somewhere that force closing the photo app can sort issues out. Double press home button then hold down photo app until no entry sign appears. Press on that sign to close photo app. Try safari file upload again.

Actually. In this version of iOS you just double click home button then swipe the apps upwards to delete them. Do that with Photos and Safari and try again

I'll give it a go.
