Can't upload pics to Blogger- Any advice?
« on: July 20, 2020, 12:51:57 PM »
It seems I can no longer upload pics to Blogger.  I’m using Windows 10.

Oddly I can still upload pics here and elsewhere.

Any help or advice will be most gratefully received.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Just tried it with the original interface and it worked fine on my iPad.
I was having problems, as were others, with the new version. I couldn't get that to work at all. But the old one is still available for now. Check you've not been moved over.

I can post photos from my google archive album now but not simply from my photos.  I confess I didn't know I had a google archive album.

I'm hoping this is a temporary glitch while new blogger beds in.

As ever any observations or help is most welcome.

Have you by chance typed your text for the post in another machine and then sent it across to the machine that you use to manage blogger ...... and accidentally sent in PDF and then pasted it into the blogger post ..... I know from experience that this will prevent images being embedded!

I am using new blogger without any issues (Chromebook).

On the left of the page when you log in to blogger - right at the bottom, below where it says Comments Earning etc. there *should* be a button that allows you to revert to the "legacy" version.
Hot that and (for the time being at least) you'll be able to post in the way you are used to.

No idea how long the legacy version will be supported for though. :(

I had to do this as the new version seemingly made you upload and add one image at a time (Gee, thanks for that Mr Blogger Genius, that's ideal for my regular 30+ image posts - what a helpful and well thought out upgrade)

Thanks TWD.

Apparently legacy blogger is available until 24 August 2020.  Then we will see what joys await us.
