GoldStar Posted November 3, 2021 Report Share Posted November 3, 2021 I ran into the same thing with Imgur links. Just paste the direct link to the image in your post, the new forum software should pick up on it. Don't need BBCode format or anything like that.

Turbo Cary Posted November 3, 2021 Report Share Posted November 3, 2021 (edited) I tried to put your image into my message but only the link appears. The issue is you're linking a url without the .jpg or .gif at the end. For example here is this image from my imgur. I selected Other Media and insert image from URL And here is the same link to the image but without the jpg but linking to the imgur post https://imgur.com/a/JL02IX2 Now here is how your Flickr link looks using insert from url... It doesn't work cause it doesn't have the .jpg and unless you can get the specific url for the image from Flickr it only links to the website itself.

Evoz17 Posted November 4, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2021 (edited) So it's working if I copy paste from my phone. So on the laptop don't pick the bbcode anymore? I just noticed that when I click on OTHER MEDIA and paste my link nothing happens. On my phone I just copy and paste and hit enter then the site automatically shows the picture.

kev Posted November 4, 2021 Report Share Posted November 4, 2021 I haven't been able to get bbcode working either on the laptop. But if I just put the image link, it shows. I use to be able to do this and it would show the photo: [IMG]https://www.hotrodders.com/media/img_1209-jpg.197370/full[/IMG] But now just leave out the [img] [/img] and it pops right up 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jjohnson Posted November 5, 2021 Report Share Posted November 5, 2021 I just added this directly from my phone . No image hosting site. I added it just like I would on Facebook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I added it just like I would on Facebook. use IMGUR or some host. You can't put it directly in the site, as there's a 100kb limit. You can barely put a 2006-era cameraphone pic.
