Placing images in posts ?

[Zero D]

Hi, this isn't a problem per se, more of a request

In other forums that use the same vBulletin software as here, people are able to upload images & ALSO place them Exactly where they require for better clarity etc in their posts, eg:

Text ..............

Attachment 451032

Text ..............

Attachment 451033

Text ..............

Attachment 451034

All we need to do is copy/paste the code that is displayed after uploading, into the post, as above.

I know there is a 3 image inclusion limit per post on here, though other forums do allow more.

Could Admin etc consider changing things at your end, to enable us to do this from now on ? I believe it would help to allow the posts/info to flow & be followed/digested etc in a much more linear way.

TIA

Hi, I will ask the owner if that is something we can do.

As far as three posts go, all you have to do is upload the first three and then start again before you post. Like this:

Brilliant I believe it will be Very worthwhile.

Ahh, now i see I wonder why it doesn't show more upload options initially ?

@ Jason

It now shows 10.

Hi, indeed it does, Thanks

What about the other part of my request though, for the inline placement code to be included after uploading ?

TIA

I'll see if we can improve our editor before we "cross the chasm" of upgrading to an entirely new forum platform (which isn't far off now)...

Really you're asking for a WYSIWYG image editor, and I don't think there are any decent drop in solutions for vBulletin.

@ Jason

upgrading to an entirely new forum platform (which isn't far off now)...

I wonder why ? as vB looks Pro, is easy to use etc.

Placing Att's inline now SOLVED Thanks to some kind advice from an Admin on another vB forum.

Etc etc

How to do it

After uploading right click on the Att name you see, copy/paste the attachmentid number from the URL where you want it to appear. Do that for every Att. you want to post, Preview & make sure it appears as you require, then Post.

Hi, i should hsve also shown that you need to also include the vB code DIRECTLY before & after the attachmentid number like this

Don't forget the Backslash

See my post in here for 3 Att screenies i posted inline this way.

You can do the same for Any allowed Att. & also seperate each Att with text if you like

I've just noticed i said Back Slash instead of Forward Slash Even though i showed a Forward Slash in my screenie. Sorry about that !

But it does Definately work as shown
