NewTricks Posted May 4 ID:1565927 Share Posted May 4 MY ATTACHMENTS have a 500 MG limit within the forum. I "tested" to see if removing an attachment from MY ATTACHMENTS would also remove it from the corresponding post. It did not, at least in the posts I looked at. I went ahead and cleared everything out of MY ATTACHMENTS recently, and discovered some jpegs were removed from private messages, and some posts, but not others. Is this removal from random posts based on size, location or file type? Is this normal and predictable or an overall glitch? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David H. Lipman Posted May 4 ID:1565929 Share Posted May 4 If you remove attachments from your Profile Attachments then wherever they are used, there will be an empty attachment placeholder. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Root Admin AdvancedSetup Posted May 4 Root Admin ID:1565950 Share Posted May 4 I have too many attachments 😆 6,547 attachments 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David H. Lipman Posted May 4 ID:1565952 Share Posted May 4 (edited) I have 7,837 attachments. Many are redundant so last year I started taking advantage of the "Other Media" Forum Editor function to insert intended attachments that I have used before so I don't tax the system. Luckily or thankfully Ani-GIFs are not large files. Albeit, many attachments are unique such as numerous malware submissions. Edited May 4 by David H.

David H. Lipman Posted May 4 ID:1565955 Share Posted May 4 @NewTricks Here is how I inserted the below already posted screenshot of a Phish. At the top of the Insert Existing Attachment dialogue, is a Search. If you know the file name of the attachment. and you have many, that will narrow the list to be more specific in choosing an already posted attachment to pick from.
