Hello, sorry if this is just my mistake or done something stupid. But I can't upload images anymore, it says I've reached my maximum limit not attachment upload, please try later.

Both on my phone and on my desktop, I can't edit post to add samples. I just made a new thread on a subject but I can't finish it now.
 
There's no maximum limit to attachment upload - only maybe a bandwidth problem (your end or server, not sure).

Best to try again in a couple of minutes (i.e. probably now), and with one or only a few images parallel ...

FWIW, sometimes, you get a whole series of errors, and then it flips back to working again ... No clue, really. But it's not that common, so I put up with it.

EDIT: Again, FWIW, no issues whatsoever on my end, (almost) as smooth as it gets ...

I didn't think I had any limits set. Are you trying to upload directly in the thread or in the Media Gallery section?

I'll check this out.
Directly to the thread using the Drop image. I tried on Windows and Mac OS and Android with the same result:

Oops! We ran into some problems.
You have reached the maximum limit for attachment uploads. Please try again later.

Also it shouldn't be a cookie problem eitherz this is on Chrome browser on Windows, Microsoft Edge on Android and Safari on Mac OS.
 
How big is the file you're trying to attach? 👀
Between 1 and 2 MB. Roughly 5 MP ... I have posted these image sizes before ... The last thread that I made I hated the images straight from my phone 12.5 MP at 2.5 MB and they uploaded fine. Everything stopped working at the end of the thread where it wouldn't let me post more images and I wasn't at the 20 images per post limit yet.
 
Neither Brave nor Chrome will allow me to attach/upload images anymore (from my Android tablet). I'm using Firefox now, and it works. Could be because it isn't based on Chromium?

Won't even show the dialog box to insert the URL to the image.

I've also tried everything I know, cleared caches and stuff, to no avail.

Understandable, I tried Safari on my Mac Mini M1 and it still gives me the same error. I might try Opera to see if that works.
 
@L0n3Gr3yW0lf Any VPN or similar in play? Just curious. It seems an odd error, all told.

General errors can and will occur, but I've never seen this error before.

Let's hope that Kevin gets round to cracking this one ...

I don't use any VPN, I have the default Windows Firewall and Malwarebit antivirus on my laptop but I have the same issues on my antivirusless Android and Mac OS.

I really hope there's something that can be done, I would hope I don't have to make another account to be able to post images again.

If anyone needs more info just tell me how I can get it, like debug coding from my browser (F11 I think?) or some data cache.

Hello, sorry to pop in here again but I am having trouble uploading again. I get a non descriptive error: We run into some problems.

I have been trying to upload images today as series by after I get into the later part of the upload it gets stuck on the same images (while others can still upload) and they won't upload no matter how many times I try.
The images are around 1MB or less (1600x1600 resized) and sometimes they do finish upload but it gets into Parsing Info error and it gets attached instead but won't insert into the post. Sometimes I can edit the post and insert them from attachment but not always.
I have tried this from my phone, on work Wi-Fi, on 5/4G connectivity only and still with the same problems on the same images.

For example I can't finish uploading on my last post on the Streets Photography thread. I had similar problems earlier this morning on Deb's thread on Flash Diffusers for Flowers Macro thread.
 
Are you able to grab the actual error message you're getting? I just tried from my phone and it went through but am away from my laptop to try that. Same browser you're using on all devices or different browsers also?

I don't know what you did to the Upload Gremlins but they ran away and now I seem to not only upload the images in question but the upload has been a lot faster as well. Sorry I can't screenshot the error right now as I was unable to reproduce it, but I can give you screen shots of the browser and OS version if that helps:

Mobile Microsoft Edge (a Chromium derivative).

My Google Pixel 7 Pro OS version.

My default broswes are Microsoft Edge on Windows and Android and Apple Safari on Mac. (I have others installed but don't use often because of compatibility and nightmare of transferring data and reloging accounts.
