Thanks to all three of you for your replies and bringing some clarity to the issue. So it seems from what Tupka217 is saying, the wording on the Discussions help page was much more clear about putting images on Discussion posts prior to the amendment by Mira Laime on 3 April 2019. Her wording gives the impression that it is possible to add multiple images one at a time.

What is the situation with adding a video to the post? As I referenced in my initial post, the Making Discussions a Success document is unambiguous about use of video in Discussion posts. But what is the mechanism for adding a video? Or has this feature been curbed back along the way?

I am not too worried about the long standing Crazy Kings Wiki, in terms of Forums and Discussions as I am sure at time of transition, appropriate measures will be put in place to allow for continued use of existing material in whatever format. The main issue is with the new Wiki, we are developing. Once ready, one of the major draws to the Wiki would be the ability for players of the game to share strategies comprising narrative, photos and videos. But as things stand currently, it is debilitating if only one image file can be attached to a Discussion post with doubts abouts video attachment.

The fallback position I had, which I would like to avoid as much as possible, is posting these strategies in the Comments section of the appropriate page. Clearly, there are downsides to this approach as over time some pages will have a lot of weighty material in the Comments section that could impact on the time it takes to display those pages.

Andrewds1021 is there a specific contact or group addressing Discussions matters? I will contact them to see if this particular issue has been raised by other wikis and what workaround has been suggested or being deployed. I am sure, we cannot be the only Wiki that have strategy sharing features that rely on use of media files.

Once again, my appreciation to all three of you for your comments.
