Can you add images to polls in IPB 4.1.9?

As the title says, can you add images to polls? Ive tried using img tags etc but it doesn't work. Is there any other way to add them?

hmm, for some reason that doesn't work for me? All i get displayed is the name of the image, but no image? Do they need to be a certain size for polls?

[Nathan Explosion]

Nope - do you mean the url of the image, or the file name of the image?

Post screenshots, or a link to your site with test credentials for use.

Everytime I add the image code/address like above, when I go back in to edit the poll, the code has changed to this >>>   <img src="___base_url___/applications/core/interface/imageproxy/imageproxy.php?img=___base_url___%2Fuploads%2Fmonthly_2016_04%2Fdogg1210.jpg&amp;key=36aa0aada9410327fdb470644d672d8558437cd5918927c363bd6448c28cfc8a" class="ipsImage" alt="dogg1210.jpg" />

It seems to be changing the bracket at the start, then adding in source="__base__url__/applications/core/interface/imageproxy/imageproxy.php?.................

 

Here's a test account for you to log in.

Username: test1

PW: qwerty

site and location of poll:

I'll try to add the image again ;-) so you can see whats being displayed.

The one I'm adding the image to is the poll question "1 dogg1210 (civicmb6)"

This is the direct link to the image, which works fine.

Easy answer - you're using the "serve images from local server" proxying option which looks like it doesn't play with this functionality. Log it as a bug.

Thanks for that mate, will do that just now!

[Nathan Explosion]

No problem - link to it when you've done and I'll flesh out the details if necessary.

[crazzzydave]

Ahh, I've submitted a support ticket for it. Is there an area in the forum for bu reporting mate?

No worries - support ticket is fine, a bug fix will come out of it.

Logging a bug, in future, via https://invisionpower.com/4bugtrack/

If not done already in the support ticket, can you provide them a link to this topic for reference?

[crazzzydave]

found it! Sorry about that! Reported now, here's the link ;-) 

 

Thanks for all your help Nathan, appreciate it mate!
