Attachments

For a more striking entry, you can also add media files to your post. Some of the attachment options include images, documents, links, videos, and drawings. You can even use your webcam or device microphone to record a video or sound file. 📸

You can also drag and drop files into the padlet to post multiple items at once!

Post Drafts

Posts will autosave as drafts. A draft will remain on its padlet across devices and sessions. Post drafts appear on the bottom of the Padlet screen.

Post drafts will save across sessions and devices, so if you want to attach a file on a different device, you can leave a draft, return to the padlet on a different device, and attach it there.
