Title: Can't upload photos
Post by: mwr on October 08, 2014, 09:16:00 PM: I tried to upload photos with a new post and got this message: The upload folder is full. Please try a smaller file and/or contact an administrator.

I got that message even trying only one photo (jpg file), size 60KB.

1, How would Taparalk help me upload photos with a forum message from my computer?

2. Is there no way this problem can be fixed? I've never encountered it on any other web forum, and I've been a member of many.

3. Even if uploading photos worked as it's supposed to, the published size limits are crazy small.

This is a good and valuable forum. Why is it so broken re uploading photos?

With Tapatalk the attachments are stored elsewhere and linked to the site maybe, haven't even needed to resize any screenshots or photos! YMMV.

Post by: matt on October 09, 2014, 01:40:18 PM: I did run into the same prob on another site, but was able to navigate through a number of screens to delete old uploaded files from my account. There was an upload limit for each user as well as size restrictions. Couldn't find that option for the web version of this forum.

I'll try posting a link to the photos and see if that works.

One thing you could do is use Blue Stacks its an android emulator for the PC that allows you to run Android apps. I've used it a few times myself to run Tapatalk with no problems.
