Just to be sure, you:
1. Open a thread
2. Click the "+" button in the upper right to make a new post, opening up the two white boxes that say "add title" and "add content"
3. In the "add content" box, you do *not* see the round "+" sign in the upper right? (clicking on this brings up the "insert" function)
Correct?
Also, are you using iPhone 4 with IOS 4.3.3 or an earlier version?
iOS 4.3.2 (8H7). Hmm, guess I need to upgrade. Haven't connected to a computer in awhile. Doubt that would affect this app, though, but I suppose it's worth a try.
Can't find the FT app version anywhere in the app (I thought it displayed on the splash screen before, but I didn't see it just now), but the app is not listed in my App Store updates tab, so I assume I have the latest version.
OK, here's what I see:
1. Open thread, click plus sign to add new post
2. See a screen with three buttons across the top (Back, Home, and Submit)
3. Blank fields below labeled "Add Title" and "Add Content"
4. Grayed-out field at the bottom labeled "Tags" (with the word "None)
BUT:
5. If I tap in the "Add Content" field (i.e. to type in it) and then click "Done," now I see the blue rounded plus sign in the upper right corner.
6. Tapping that plus sign pops up a menu with "Insert: Image | Video"
Just to be sure, I tried this in a forum I do have permissions to add an attachment in (the private TalkBoard forum), and the attachment did not post. I did note, however, that when I navigated to the TalkBoard forum and
then clicked the new thread button, the plus sign appeared instantly (as if the app recognized that I had permissions to include an attachment in that forum), but the attachment (a .jpg image from my phone) did not post.
