Posting by phone and smileys etc

acer · Sunday at 7:44 PM

I can post to forums on my laptop with full functionality - smilies, links, upload photos etc. However, on my phone I can’t. The little toolbar drops down, but then I can’t click anything.
To be clear, it’s ok when I’m reacting, but not when I write a reply. What am I doing wrong. (iPhone 11 Pro Max iOS 17.6.1). Any ideas?

If you click on the three vertical dots on the right hand side do you have the brackets highlighted? Like this:

I get the three dots. The row of tools drop down: face, quote, picture etc, but I can’t actually click them. Odd. I’ve tried restarting my phone.

Sorry, just read your post again. No, I don’t get those brackets.

Just playing now. So, what does this do

That button toggles edit mode I think.
Bumper protector is not on yet, but it’s on my to do list :thumb

Also, silly question, but if you start to write a reply, but then change your mind, can you abort the reply?

Just keep clicking the undo button :thumb

Thanks. I knew that I’d feel like an idiot after asking that! :embarrased

I have a 26 year old daughter to answer these questions for me.....it is far less embarrassing!

I asked my 19 and 22 year olds. They find it funny that I post on here (and have for the past 9 years). Now they find it hilarious that I don’t know what I’m doing.
