As it stands, when remote images are posted they're displayed at full width rather than at the max image display size set in the control panel. Would it be possible to have them adhere to this setting so they act in the same way as uploaded images?

You can set that in admincp, or simply double click the image once it's displayed in the editor box and then set a custom size.

It doesn't respect the size set in the admincp though unfortunately, and most users posting remote images don't go back and resize the images, so you end up with full size images through a thread, next to properly sized ones when the uploader is used. It makes it quite messy, and I think needs to be uniform and default to whatever the image display size is set to .

Agreed. I would very much like an admincp setting for the max size of remote images.

 

 

Agreed to for the max size of remote images! A must have option for ips! 

I also agree, IP Board 3.x was having this function and it was best. 

Look at this..

This photo url i paste directly in the editor, loding automatic.. 

 

This photo url = using the media button.. 

So its the media button that's causing the issue? It would be great to get a fix on this Its been irradiating me for days 

I suggest you log that difference in behaviour as a bug in that case - the auto-embed adheres to the image dimensions set in the ACP, whereas the 'Insert image from url' function doesn't.

Yes it's the media button that causing the issue.

Put this at the end of your custom.css! 

(You can edit the % for the size or use px;)

.ipsType_richText img  {

  max-width: 50%;

  max-height: 50%;

}
