I have put an image in a PM before now and I’m sure that I did it via an ‘add image to post’ button at the bottom of the quick reply section but that doesn’t seem to be there any longer. Can anyone tell me how I can do it now please…thank you...

Lillias .......I tried what you describe and don't see the "add image to post" button either. However, if I click your name and then "Send Message" the option to add an image can be seen at the top. This workaround may help you. One of the other moderators might be able to add more info on this but at least this might get you started.

I confirm your finding Helen; thanks for doing that. It seems is very strange that it is there when you compose a PM one way, but others! This behavior has been noted by others and a query about it is outstanding on the support board. I will of course report back if anything new is reveled. Thanks for reporting this Lillias

Thank you Helen and Tom for your responses.
If I might just elaborate a bit on my original post as I don’t think I explained my problem properly –
If I am the person initiating the PM I can, as Helen rightly says, see the ‘Send Message’ button which when clicked takes me to the screen where I can see the option to ‘Add an Image’ to my post.
However if I am ‘replying’ to a PM someone else has initiated that option doesn’t seem to be available now. I’m sure it was before, as I said, down at the bottom left of the Quick Reply section.
As things stand now I’d have to start a new PM to the person in order to include an image which could end up confusing for all concerned.
I hope the Support Board can fix this. Thanks for your help.

Lillias, I understood what you meant in your original post and agree that this would be confusing to the receiver of the message. The other option that I saw would be to use the reply tab. That gives you the option to add a url from another hosting site.....but I didn't believe that would be helpful to you and I would imagine you had already seen this option.

Yes thanks Helen I had seen that option but as I’m sure you will agree it’s not as good or as quick as the way we could originally upload an image in a PM. It would appear maybe to be something that ProBoards have changed. Hopefully they will have second thoughts and change it back to the way it was.

OK, I have made a change to the forum code and you should now see the Add image to post via imgbb.com button in the Quick Reply box.
This true for regular posts as well as PMs. However, with the PM, once you click Reply, it is still not present. I will continue to investigate.
