MOC 13 Q&A Thread

I messed up today, tried to post my Day 6 layout when I realized I no longer had the image link (I got distracted by someone else's layout). Then I had difficulty finding the post, thought it was lost & created another one. I now have two Day 6 posts: one with only words and one with an image. I'm not sure how to delete the unneeded one.

On the left hand side at the bottom of your post, can you see delete? If so, clickit and delete the post. Or if you want to just edit one of the posts with your next days layout, you can do that too.

That's just the thing, I'm sure I've seen the delete option before but not here.

@BLKinOR You should be able to see the delete button on your post in your layout thread. It is at the bottom of your post. Like in mine which I took a screen shot of..... see it after the word "edit".

I have a question, is there a way to modify a gallery post by JUST updating the photo, there are times I need to re-upload the photo because I forgot a date stamp or something, but I have not figured out how to edit the gallery post & ONLY put a new photo, when I've done it in the past I've had to delete & re-upload & then add all the credits & tags again. Please help if you know how to do that.

No with the forum upgrade they removed that functionality several releases before our upgrade. We essentially went from the original forum to the latest when we upgraded… there were many changes implemented in between and being able to re-upload a new image to the original post is a function that we lost. It requires deleting and re-uploading.

Tad bit inconvenient I know.
 
In past years, I think the person who posts the challenge will post on the layout something like "thanks for playing in my challenge!" At that point, we know that layout has been checked for errors and we can check it off our "done and approved" list. Is that still correct?

Thanks so much!

Yes, they are still commenting on your pages. Some will say "thanks for playing in my challenge" but they are commenting. I also double check things (may not comment on every page) as I update the MOC spreadsheet for everyone's challenge pages. If I see something as I go, I alert the challenge host.

Of course please remember the host will try to alert everyone if a page is non-compliant, however it is everyone's responsibility to check the instructions to make sure their pages comply before posting their layouts.

I just made a similar mistake. Since I had read this question and replies this week, I decided to try copying my original post. I was then able to insert the info I had copied to my new post with the correct photo. It made correcting my photo so much easier. Thought you all might like to hear about this success.
