Title: Trouble uploading pics from URL to this site.
Post by: custompunk on April 10, 2014, 01:20:13 PM
Hi I am getting an error "Failed to write temporary file" when I try to retrieve a file from a URL and post it here.  Anyone else getting this?

I am going to the insert image>URL>then copying and pasting url and clicking go.

Uncheck the "Retrieve Remote file" option.

Uncheck the "Retrieve Remote file" option.

But I want to retrieve the remote file.  Basically when I post a lead from craigslist I try to include a picture and the information of the car.  I want the picture to still be there when the ad gets taken down so future people will know what the car looked like and if they want to call the guy and ask if he still has it.

Ahhh.  Yeah, I've never been successful with retrieving the remote file clicked.
