I've seen others add pictures with their status updates on their news feed. I see the camera icon, but when I try to add a picture, it never shows up with my status??

    I believe it’s tied to the last time you updated your progress weight - so if it’s been a while since you did that it would show farther down in your time line - does they make sense at all?

    You should have a message that says add existing photo or add a new picture. What happens when you click to add a picture?

    Makes sense, seems kinda weird but that wouldn't surprise me with mfp.

    Yep, shows that and I click add existing. It shows the pic next to the message I type, but when I post only the typed message posts??

    MFP simply can't handle your awesomeness is what that means.

    Hmm maybe try a different browser? Maybe google chrome if you're on a computer. I use the app on my phone. Then it should have a message that says import photo and should upload from there.

    Try restarting your phone or clearing cache and freeing up storage space. Especially if it's worked before. Hope that helps

    I've done it all, even uninstalled the app and re-added it. Thanks for the suggestions though!

    Sorry i just reread that u were able to add it and it just doesn’t show up. Do u add the pic, click next where u can enter a message, then upload?

    U might of uploaded and started a new status so it doesnt take. It happened to me before

    Thanks for the step by step!!! I just did what you posted pics of to be sure and it posts the written message but no pic...I guess my phone just can't do it hahaha

    Now u got me all sorta of curious!

    Can u take a screenshot of ur feed after u make the post?

    Does only text show up and no pic?

    Or is there like a little grey negative space under?

    Just the typed text shows up...

    Seriously, sometimes turning your phone off and back on gets apps to work.... sometimes not.

    Could it be a bandwidth or filesize issue?
