I had a really cool blog that I was typing up. But that all got erased. I tried to add a youtube video at the end, but it deleted all my text. I am really hot. I worked on it for 20 minutes and it was for nothing.
Trying to post things on this site doesn't work for me. I can't copy and paste from a separate program because it doesn't support touch screens. So I am forced to use the site editor instead of my browser. I don't like it and it sucks. I try to add a picture, and it puts it at the top of the blog.
I'm taking a long break from here because I am really pissed off. I am sorry for any inconvenience. Bye.
I don't always do it myself, but saving the text in Word is always a good idea.
Can't. The site won't let me.
You can copy and paste but you need to use keyboard shortcuts like Ctrl-Ins and Shift-Ins but that's somewhat problematic on a phone.
sorry man. What kind of device are u using to post? I've used my tablet a couple times, but mostly do it on a PC.
The only thing I have to use is my Galaxy S5.
Oh, I didn't realize you were posting with a phone. My phone can't handle any website, let alone this one. (LG Optimus V)
I can see where posting using a tablet or phone could be problematic but that goes for a lot of sites.
I only have trouble with this site.
Aw! And you just came back! We miss you!
I'm sorry... I'll still read your blogs and maybe comment once in awhile, but it's just too frustrating to post here.
That is a bummer man. I have had this happen to me too, and I have never been able to post pictures or video here with either my old pc or my current laptop. I used to do the copy paste from word but it does not work.
Good to know I'm not the only one. I refuse to post anymore blogs unless they fix the issues with the site.
I only post replys from ipad. I have to type out a blog on Wordpad or any text editor and copy/paste. We've all discussed this before. Just copy/paste from text editor if it is going to be a long, thought out blog. There is also a Draft option so you can save your progress in the blog editor.
The site editor won't support touch screens. I can't control/X or whatnot here, and yes, it's a problem. I have tried saving draft before, and I get what you're saying. Fine in theory, not in execution. I should not have to learn all the quirks of the site and remember everything all the time. It's just the way it goes.
I sometimes write in Word first and copy and paste. Other times I just write in the editor here. At home on my Laptop at night it works just fine, but in the library, where I am in the afternoon, I can't insert hyper-links or center photos on a page. And yeah, inserted photos and videos alway appear at the top and I have to ctrl-X and ctrl-V them back into the proper place.
I was wondering how a tablet or phone would work for this place since I think my next "computer" will be a tablet. Sounds problematical but maybe Nick can fix that. It's the age of the touch screen already.
