    members upload their own photos to blog?

    Is there a way for members to upload photos in their blog posts? I've searched the documentation. Am I missing something? My members are freelance fine artists and they want to upload their latest commissioned projects.

     Thanks!

    Hi Joanie,

    At the moment only administrators can upload images to the blog.  If you have enabled photo albums on your site, you members can upload the images to their album and then link to it from the blog.

    OK, oh well, thanks. We do use Photo Albums.

     Am I missing something though? When I sign in as a member, there's no text edit/font/link/etc. box at the top of the forum posting pages. How would you add a link then? Is there a setting that I'm missing?

    Only new blog posts have the formatting bar, it isn't available for blog comments so they would need to simply paste in the URL in plain text.

    Actually, I'm signed in as member on my site now and there's no edit/font/link/etc box on a new blog post. I do see it in your documentation however.

    Sorry to be a pain!

     Here's the URL

    Hi, I tested you account and the formatting bar does appear for me. Can you try clearing your browser cache and trying again? If it still doesn't appear plese send me an email with the trype of browser you are using and the name of the member you had logged in as.

    You can reach me at support@wildapricot.com

    AHA! I was looking in Safari. That's the answer. In Firefox it works fine.

     Did I read that full Safari support was coming? I hope anyway. My members are artists and almost all use Macs.

     Thank you again.

    Safari compatibility will be available after our next upgrade scheduled for March 25th. I believe there may still be a few issues with Safari, these will be posted on the help site on the release date.
