I have been uploading links from my iPhone to get badges/ bbs and it seems that none of them are going through. I am going to upload them from my laptop and see if that is any better. Does that sound right that an iPhone won’t upload links or is mine just special?

I can try and assist you with this problem, I have a clarifying question first.

By links, are you talking about URLs from a website or trying to upload photos directly off of your phone?

Can you tell me more about what "uploading links" looks like?  

Screenshots are very helpful.

Hi, Laura

I looked at your posts and it looks like you are trying to upload picture to get credit for Badge Bits.

Some are missing key pictures so is that the problem you cant seem to get the pictures to load?

For the Frying an egg BB you are missing the picture of frying an egg.

A common issue when uploading images from a cell phone is the connection.  If the wifi is spotty or on a cell connection, it helps to keep the file size as small as possible.  

If you let us know what kind of cell phone, perhaps someone here can suggest how to make the files smaller?  (I don't have a phone so I don't know how)

I can upload photos fine. It’s the URLs that won’t show up, like links to YouTube videos.

You don't have to upload URLs.

Just post them as part of the text.

Try it out in this thread until you get the hang of it.

The challenge is to describe it in a way we can reproduce the error.  

I go youtube,  click share and copy link.  Paste here.

Let's try it with a short.   Same path.  Yt, share, copy link, paste

As links, do they show?

On this recent post: https://permies.com/wiki/120/103204/pep-food-prep-preservation/Fry-egg-cast-iron-skillet#2594177 it looks like you have uploaded a youtube shorts link. Is that an example of your issue?
 
Oooo, ah, that's how it starts. Later there's running and screaming and tiny ads.
