The thought is to post a "blog" photo, like this one, to the account and use the description text to contain the text of the blog. It appears as though the photo description is pretty much unlimited, in length. I suppose, for search purposes, I would need to be thorough with my "tags", in order for the blog entry to be "searchable".</p> <p>To keep the blog photos separated from the regular photos, I could put them into a <b>blog album</b>, easily keeping them in one place.</p> <p>Now, if I wanted to add a photo to this blog entry, could I do it in the description field here?</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.23hq.com/virtualsky/photo/26521583"><br /> <img src="http://www.23hq.com/23666/26521583_fec041acc6277698807c91e854019250_standard.jpg" height="230" width="260" /><br /> </a></p> <p>It looks as though it is possible to post photos into the description field. Also, some basic <i>HTML</i> can be used, along with photo embedding techniques.</p> <p>Although this is not the ideal solution, as these blog photos would clutter the <i>Latest Activity</i> section somewhat, it is at least something that I could do until 23 re-activates (or redesigns) the Stories module.</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0px;">-David.</p><p>Photo by <a href="https://www.23hq.com/virtualsky/">virtualsky</a></p> https://www.23hq.com/virtualsky/photo/27006422 Wed, 14 Dec 2016 04:44:00 GMT
