Posted September 28, 20168 yr i notice images are not displaying in emails - when you view in html and then try and access the image by url you get a 403 error. is there any way around this? maybe changing permissions on /img folder? The website declined to show this webpage HTTP 403 Most likely causes: This website requires you to log in.
September 28, 20168 yr Author sorry should of had more detail. i recd a notification for a Private Message and i couldnt see the 'user profile icons' but ive also just received your notification and i can see you! I also did a test by adding my company logo to all outbound emails and this also didnt show up. maybe a 'hotlinking' or permission setting on my end?
September 28, 20168 yr Community Expert Images are often hidden by default in email clients (also web-based ones) for security reasons. That’s why I don’t even send my site logo with my emails. But a server response (403) not to show the image is of course something else. It’s not a default behaviour of the IPS software, neither for avatars, theme images, attachments …Your uploads folder should be public of course.
September 28, 20168 yr Author yes viewing in outlook it would usually say 'right click to download images' this doesnt do that just says 'image cannot be displayed' i am going to double check all the permissions and get back to you
