I tried to insert a screenshot into this post but it didn't work.
Why can't I insert screenshots?
Sort:
If you are doing a raw drag and drop it won't work- you must click image first then drag and drop. If that's not the case it's most likely a bug.

I am using Chrome 138
I can insert screenshots if I choose it from the insert image option but, if I copy paste it, it shows that it is in my text editor but when I post it. It doesn’t show up. (I just tried it out)

Copy paste doesn't work. That's never been an option, except maybe for images previously uploaded to chess.com
Otherwise it has always required uploading

I have copy pasted before and it worked. But that was before I enrolled into Beta.

If you copy/pasted an image that was already uploaded to the site, that may have worked. The software didn't support that for new images. I know that for a fact.

That makes sense. Also, am I the only one who is seeing this. It happens to me whenever I quote someone.

Whenever I try to insert a screenshot when messaging someone or anything it just doesn't appear and doesn't load in.
