Signature line question.

I added another image to my signature line tonight. When I go to my profile, the new image is displayed there (6 images total), but it isn't showing up in my posts, at least not so far. Any idea what would cause that to happen?

There should be 6 images, but only 5 are visible. (Sorry if that wasn't clear.) ShazzieB Mar 2023 #5

I can only see signatures on Desktop, not mobile. On desktop, I see your signature....5 photos.

As it happens, I'm using an android tablet, but I have my DU display preference set to Standard, which makes everything look the same way it looks on a computer.

I see 6 images on my monitor by way of an old (2013) Dell Optiplex 9020 desktop computer (running Windows 10).

Matter of fact, it seems to go beyond mobile rendition versus desktop.

On the larger ipad screen, your name is followed by number of posts and icons for various actions, and the date and time, whereas the phone has only the name and time of the post.

So, no doubt the code is responding to what the browser says is the width of the screen as well as mobile versus desktop.

It's probably explained somewhere.

then elements will start getting cut off from the right-hand side. That would explain why some here can see the whole thing (I can see all the images on my desktop computer), but when you browse using a tablet, you're missing certain images.

That also explains why I could see all the images in my profile, but not in posts.

I ended up deleting the image I felt was the most expendable to make room for the new one. Except I accidentally deleted 2 images instead of just one and had to go find my "Trump lost lol" image and put it back in.
