Attach Image is not working?

Cavalier

Trying to attach a photo in the Attach Image drop-down does not appear to be working. I paste the URL location (from my Smugmug site) in the text box and Enter does not display the image. I have tried Firefox and Chrome with the same results. I was trying to attach it to the Photo Association discussion.

That's very odd. I was just able to attach an image from my SmugMug site in that thread using the attach image dropdown.

Do you think it is worth clearing the browser cache and trying again?

@Richard any thoughts?

Your are right - it is odd. I've cleaned cache and it is still not workingin firefox and Chrome. Obviously, there is something that I'm doing or something wrong with my ssytem.
What I've been doing in the past is use the share function, embed and copyng the photo from my Smugmug site, then using the dropdown Attach Image functon and normally use Control/V to paste the image and the drop-down closes. The image normally is pasted and all is good. Now when I paste it, the drop-wdown stays open and nothing happens.
I will continue trying to find out what's going on at my end. If you are able to use it, there is no reason why I can't. Unless, of course, there really are gremlins.

Ok, I didn't find the problem, but I went back to step one and shared,embedded and copied the photo again from my site and the Attach Image box now works as expected. Interestingly, the first time I copied it, it pasted the URL address, so I know the copy worked, but this time it works OK.

So sorry for the problem. Not sure why it wasn't working before - but now it is! I;m walking away fro my computer now!

Awesome that it is behaving again!

I hate when thing stop working without an explanation.
