Hello! I have the same problem! If I wanted to send any pictures in a private conversation, how can I do it? Thank you for your help!

Thank you for trying to help me! That box exists below where I'm typing right now, but does not exist in private conversation/chat.

It should do

I wasn't even aware of the fact that it didn't exist until I read some of these comments. I have emailed the support on here to see what's happening!

It's a xenforo setting to allow local photos to be added to profiles. Right now it is set to only allow linking photos from hosting sites when in PM/DM.

Thank you for your help! I'm not really any good with technology though, does that mean that I can't really ever send anything?

No it isn't a setting you can control, an admin has to do it. I don't know what version of xenforo this is running vs the board I admin, but there is a setting under user groups for Direct Message Permissions and they would need to set it to YES for "upload attachments to direct messages" I think.

Ah, that makes a bit more sense! Thank you for explaining that!
