Speaking of editing Posterous Posts ….

October 10, 2009 By Linda Sherman 9 Comments

There is a lot to be liked about Posterous but I must admit I miss “draft” and “preview” from WordPress. And being able to bring in images – it would be nice if that were possible from inside Posterous so that everything doesn’t HAVE to be an email. Or am I missing something?

Can anyone tell me how to remove the extra line spaces from a post.

Oh and I’d like to add this photo of me taken at Ray’s 8-8-09 birthday party too.

    Try manually editing the post’s HTML and removing the < br > and < br/ > tags.

    @Talsh Thank you! The lovely little square blue HTML (edit HTML source) icon. Do you know any easy way to insert images into a Posterous post without sending by email? I tried using insert image codes from Flickr and that didn’t work.

    Thank you to @Kr8t for a suggestion on how to add the preview post function to Posterous: Set up in a WordPress blog draft.

    <div dir="ltr">Gmail (and most other mail clients) can insert images in the message rather than as an attachment: just use the &quot;Insert Image&quot; button. That's what I do. I have tried the flickr image codes and they've worked fine. Keep in mind that you need to paste the flickr code when editing your post's HTML.<br> <blockquote style="margin: 1.5em 0pt;">Tal Shafik</blockquote><br><br></div>

    And I agree. Posterous really should update their web editor now that more and more people are using it as their main blog

    @Talsh Do you know if there is any plan to enable meta title and description tags on Posterous? I would think that would be a consideration if people are using it as a main blog.

    <div dir="ltr">Not that I know of. You can enter metadata for the blog itself, not for individual posts, as far as I know.<br><br></div>
