  Hello team,

  Greetings!

  I have been facing trouble while trying to add new images to my blog drafts while creating and editing blog posts via my phone. The browser I am using is Internet Explorer, since there’s no WordPress application for Windows phones yet. I can only insert those images in the blog drafts, which are already in my media library. But when I try to upload new images from my phone’s photo library, the add file dialogue box goes blank (after I select the file and click on upload). Please advise!

  Thanks and regards,
  Mohita

  Hi there,

  I have put this in front of the company at large in hopes that we will be able to come up with a solution for you. In the mean time, seeing as I’m not terribly familiar with the Windows phone, do you have another browser which you can try to see if this same error occurs?

  Let me know!

  Also, could you let me know what version of Windows mobile OS you’re running, and which phone model you have?

  Thanks!

  Hi. Thank you. I repeated the endeavour through Google, but the issue persists. In fact with Google, I couldn’t even select the images from the phone library. The ‘upload image’ button didn’t work.
  I’m using a Nokia Lumia 630 Dual Sim phone, running on the Windows Operating System ‘Windows 8.1 (Version: Lumia Cyan)’. Let me know if more information is required to address the subjected issue.
  Also, is there any plan for a WordPress application for Windows Phone users anytime soon?

  Thanks,
  Mohita

  Sorry, just one more question for you. Do you compose your posts via the original editor which is available at https://randommusingsofascholar.wordpress.com/wp-admin/post-new.php, or at the new editor which we recently released that you can get to at https://wordpress.com/post ?

  Thanks for all of the information!

  No problem. I had been using the former initially, but recently I’ve been using the latter. This issue is persisting in both the editors.
  Thank you for the assistance.

  Thanks,
  Mohita
