Nice, hope to see a toggle to enable/disable remote url images, so members cant upload content via URL's... for me its a security concern

​Please open a separate topic explaining what you mean there. I know of no security concerns related to linking to a remote image.

​Using CloudFlare becomes pointless when this is enabled, they could put a IP Logger as url and it would basically log the servers IP. I strive my best to hide my servers IP from public, but nothing I can do when they can just bypass all my checks with this..

When someone inserts an image via the "insert as URL" option all it does is insert a regular <img src=''> tag in the body of your post. There is no interaction with your server so nothing is revealed.

Now, i could just put a iplogger there and it would revail the servers IP address.. in my case i do everything to hide it to prevent attacks, but what i do wont help if there is no toggle to disable this :(

​Yeah. On all old versions, there was a option to toggle this on/off. I hope it can come back, i can't imagine it being hard to add.. :(
