File too large

I am trying to attach a photo and I reduced it to less than the 256 kb limit but it still says the file is too large.

Try using the Tapatalk app to upload photos. It works well. I still have to add another extension to enable larger file uploads if trying to upload through a web browser.

Is it possible to limit the physical size of the image in the post, but allow one to click on it to show its true full size and resolution? Readability could be improved with this feature and the full resolution would still be available (and is needed).

Shane, I can try changing the site to thumbnails, which should open another web browser for full-size viewing. I have to edit the PDF attachment issue tonight, so I’ll mess with the settings.

That would be perfect! Thank you!

Thanks for the thumbnail suggestion. It works much better and displays better on mobile devices. I didn't limit the original photo size, so users can still click on the thumbnails to see the original hi-res photo.

Looks great! Well implemented. Thank you for changing this!
