I have never been able to drag an old photo into the attachment window using my iPad. I access the site using Safari, not Tapatalk which I despise. Has anyone else figured this out?

Yeah. When you're composing a post, the menu boxes above the window you're typing in has a paper clip icon. That pops up the "attachment manager," which has all the thing's you've ever uploaded to the site. Select the one you want and you have an uncle named Robert.

Lemme try... nope. Same problem, no way to drag and drop using an iPad that I can see. That’s just a direct way to the “manage attachments” window. Are you using an iPad and Safari?

I have the same problem. Works fine on laptop but I tend to use my iPad 80% of the time.

Ok, it’s just a quirk I can live with. Thanks - I’m glad it’s not just me!

I found a back door way!

Settings > My Settings (left menu) > Miscellaneous > Attachments, you can view thumbnails and grab the direct links.

So, it doesn’t appear I get the picture, just the address. Must be missing something...

You can paste that in using IMG tags.
