I have been trying to post additional info on my bench build and have been running into two problems. Maybe someone can tell me what I'm doing wrong.
Two things have happened, I finished composing and typing my post, pressed the Preview Post button, and then the whole post just disappeared. A page popped up then, saying something to the effect "something happened to this page." Yes, I know, but what?
Secondly, I press the Preview Post button and I do see the post but the pictures show up only as icons.
Any ideas? This is very frustrating!
Thanks in advance for your help.

This has been happening to me a lot lately. Macbook Pro, Google Chrome v.80.0.3987.163. It's a weird, intermittent behavior. Sometimes, clicking the Back button and re-clicking Preview Post works. Sometime refreshing the (apparently) empty preview page works. So far, I have been able to post using one of those two methods. This seems to be new behavior.
Good luck!

For any real amount of typing, I like to do the composing and editing off-line. Transfer to the post via your clipboard.
Thanks, Curt
