Hello Everybody, I need help why I can't embed link from YouTube (of course, in the dedicate section of the forum)
Let me explain when I copy the link from the YouTube channel and I pasted on the ''Leave a Comment'' box, doesn't show me the preview and if I click post show you see just an unresponsive link (just writing, non clickable link, no preview).
That my account it's somehow restricted? I don't know :-( HEEELP xxx

I don't know how to make it possible to see the latest posts first. What should be installed? :(

BerryCHU

I just don't understand how to upload an image and it's hard. Help me.

Hello, I tried looking this up earlier, but all I found was a thread from 2015 and it hadn't been touched since then. Is there any way to pm/dm someone? I understand if you have to wait until you're a full member to do so (just like creating a thread)?
Thanks! :)

@KC_13, you can ask the person that want to send a PM to on their page to send you one first because after someone sends you a PM, then you reply back to it.

Oh awesome, thank you! After I become a full member though I should be able to pm people?

rosemow

When you are a full member you can pm people @KC_13.

@MonaSolstraale, maybe ask @EA_Cade if there was an issue with the site today that kept you from editing your thread since your thread is still open for other members to comment on.

This is currently under investigation by our forum hosting provider.

As of this morning threads cannot be created or edited if they contain certain BBcode in them, but replies can.

MonaSolstraale

@EA_Cade Thanks for a quick reply

EA_Cade

No worries at all. If something happens that needs our attention please tag me so I can see it ASAP.

Providentia

The amount of time I spent trying to find the post button at the top of the thread is insane. Thank goodness I randomly scrolled to the bottom of the screen #newmemberproblems. lol.

Oh yes, I also find the forum very difficult to get used to and have been looking for this button for a long time.

Is anyone else having problems with images showing up on the forums? I used a remote host (Imgur) today -- same as almost all of the other images, but I'm getting a broken link for every image on this thread: https://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/917191/ And some of the other people who posted images there are showing as broken links too. Is there a time limit for images to be available? These were posted between 2017 and 2018 except for the one from today. I've been away from the forum for a couple of years.

I'm having the same problem with my signature image even though it's showing as usable on the host site.

Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions given.

@Jazztizz, I can see your picture just fine on that thread that you've posted. It's a dog laying down on it's back taking a nap as well as your picture in your signature. I'm not sure if it's a browser issue as I'm using Google to view this one or if you need to clear out your cache/cookies on your PC to make it work. And as far as I know, there is no time limit in imgur for pictures to be available as I'm always posting pictures to this site right after uploading them to imgur. Sometime imgur gets some issues when I'm trying to go to their website but that's about it for me.

Jazztizz

@lisasc360 thanks so much for viewing and for your quick answer. I really appreciate it.

So, I cleared cookies and tried other browsers, but still can only see my last image, and two other images (not mine). All other images including my sig wolf gif have a broken image icon.

On page 2, I can see a graphic by Nikkei_Simmer and a gif from TinySpaceFox on page 1.

So when you viewed, you could see all the images on all three pages of images on that thread? There should be about 10-12 per page.

Edit: It's also doing the same thing on my Jazztizz Showcase.

Gagea

I can also see all the pictures on both your threads using Edge.

lisasc360

Yes, I can see all of them except Tinyspacefox's pictures. And that's because Tinyspacefox or the hosting site had removed the pictures from Tinypic. When a picture/s get removed from photosharing sites, it also removes them from any sites that the user had shared them to.

Edit to say that I do see Tinyspacefox gif in his/her signature.

Jazztizz

@Gagea and @lisasc360 thank you both very much for checking out the photos. I really appreciate it. Looks like I'm getting Edge.*

*Which I had. It's MS -- forgot. *facepalm* But that didn't work either. I'll ask my IT guy. Thanks again.
