When I go to create a video post, the file I choose doesn't actually do anything after I pick it from my computer. Nothing becomes attached and when I fill out the post builder options and click to post, it says "Aren't you missing something? Your post looks a little empty."
Hmm, well at least you can get your files to upload..kinda.
I'm not having any luck at all in uploading files, they start, then they restart, and that's where it stays...never completes.
Have asked several times now for help, not one reply or bit of assistance from anywhere...not happy Jan.
