|High School Harry| Posted August 14, 2015 Report Share Posted August 14, 2015 Having difficulty simply copying and pasting image from another site (Yahoo search engine/images) like the old board.Used to simply click on the little screen icon and paste in image address and to would show. No need for photo bucket to whatever. I miss the old way. Thought it added a lot to the personality of the board.Also... I do admit to not being very computer knowledgable. Mostly self taught and the Mac and Safari work very well for me with my daily stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VonBlade Posted August 14, 2015 Report Share Posted August 14, 2015 A lot of it is probably a skin thing. As said on the previous page, white on white on slightly not white just makes the whole thing look like the new Twitter look like a wall-o-text.I see we've passed a million posts in The Bengal Forum over night. Either the DB found 50000 new posts, or you lot have been busy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once you get used to it you will realize it actually adds more flexibility as you can have the images hosted on this site (uploaded directly to the forum from your PC) without the need for hosting... Ok, on the bottom of the reply screen it says "Drag files here to attach or choose files", and sure enough, if you drag the file over it will upload.Now, if you're trying to post a picture from another website via the link, that isn't always going to work, as some sites don't support hotlinking, and at this point I'm not sure if this version of the forum software supports it. It looks like the two best options are to either attach to the board, or save the file on a site like PhotoBucket and share it via the URL...

|High School Harry| Posted August 14, 2015 Report Share Posted August 14, 2015 D'op! There we go! Thanks, guys. I owe you one. I figured it out. Most of my pics come from Yahoo image search. I simply dragged the pic from the site to my desktop and then to the space at the bottom of the screen and hit "submit". No cut and paste. Now the thread is complete because what thread is ever whole without at least one Andy Dalton reference. Now how do I get him off my desktop... But, thanks, again.

oldschooler Posted August 15, 2015 Report Share Posted August 15, 2015 There used to be an option where you could preview your post to see whatit looked like when you post it before you posted it. I don't see that option now.Just submit is all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

|Elflocko| Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 Did a little digging, and the 'Preview Post' feature has been removed from this version of IPB. Their explanation is that the post box is now a true WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) editor. Personally I think they're full of shit, but since when do software developers actually use the products they make? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I think they're full of shit, but since when do software developers actually use the products they make? anyone seeing their posts disappear? I made a post earlier that has since disappeared. Perhaps because the original post I quoted was edited after I quoted it. a glitch in the system perhaps?
