It is now impossible--again--to add an attachment to a message on 2Peas. A message pops up that we have exceeded our space on ProBoards.
Space is NOT an issue if you are linking photos or other info from different sites like Flickr or Facebook or Tapatalk which has its own storage. What comes here from there is just the link, not the whole file. Space IS an issue for photos or other material you link from your computers or sources that do not have their own storage space. These show up in your messages as attachments.
You can help free up space if you will do the following:
Click on Search at the top of the board. Under WHAT to search, type in ATTACHMENT. Under WHO to search, type in your pea name. Then hit Search.
When your posts come up, go into the first one with an attachment that you no longer need. Click Edit. Click Edit Attachments. Choose Delete. Then click SAVE CHANGES at the bottom of the window.
Continue with your other posts, until you have removed your attachments.

Or just let it stay full and let people figure out how to use a hosting site. It's not hard. Everyone can do it. postimages.org/ |

It has been at least 3 years since anyone could attach a file here.

I admit - I was surprised to see that I had 2 posts with attachments -- I didn't think that I would have any (not being able to posts photos - operator error, I know). But I followed your very good directions and removed them!

FYI If you use the app then you can add photos without them 'counting' and doesn't use our space.

I use Tapatalk; so I don’t post any images using 2peas Proboards.

I deleted all of mine. It took hours, because I ended up rereading lots of old threads.  |

I was surprised that I had 5 or 6 and deleted them. I have used Tapatalk for a long time and it’s so much easier, I think.

I checked, but I didn't have any. I did, however, have a post from 2018 in which I also stated that I checked but also had none.  So at least I keep trying to help.  |

I checked, didn't have any attachments, just posts from previous threads saying that I deleted my attachments.
I wonder if the attachments are from posters that don't come by anymore.

I deleted five images.
It makes me a little sad to think that someday a pea is going to think “I wonder if auntkelly was working on a jigsaw puzzle in April 2020? Oh my gosh she was, but she deleted the picture of it! Now we will never know exactly how her Tower of Babel jigsaw puzzle turned out. What a loss!”

I didn't realize we had moderators. Do you have the power to pin posts? If so, it might be a good idea to pin this one to the top? |

No moderator powers over here. My limited ones are limited to the GS board.

Well, the least I can do is bump the thread for you, anyway.

The only thing that came up for me was a couple of posts from 2015 on a Dyson vacuum cleaner thread. No pictures.

grammadee.... I hope your post freed up A LOT of space! To anyone who thinks they "CAN'T" figure out how to post from a (free!) hosting site....I PROMISE you can! I am NOT technically gifted  but I use both imgur and postimages and they are both EASY!
