Test test  ;D

Hey Danny, you choose the pic/file and when confirmed click on the right side [Insert Attachment] then the text [attachment 1] appears in text box. When you post then, the pic is visible, but not visible in the preview…

Best Greetings from D

Hi Danny,
do it in the other order
Click choose file first, this will open a file explorer and might be a bit different between for example windows and mac. But basically navigate to your picture and select it. On Windows you then clock "open" to close this file explorer.
The picture is now actually already added and will be posted as part of your post if you click "Post".

The "Insert Attachment 1" is to be used if you want "insert" the picture inline text at a certain part of your post. If you don't use this feature the picture will be added at the bottom. This Insert attachment feature is optional.
If you want to add more pictures as part of the same post, then after you did the above for the first file, then click "more attachments". This will add a new row and you can do the above one more time.
