Ricsca Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 I migrated my forum from vbulletin. I also had many images in a custom folder. I uploaded that folder to my web space and the images are shown but are not part of the images uploaded in the discussion. Is there a way to show those images as uploaded in the discussion?

If I am understanding you correctly, these weren't uploaded via vBulletin or our software and were just added as an image URL to the content? If so, only items uploaded through the software (or converted software) would show up as an attachment. Items simply added from an external source from the software, would not be seen as an attachment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randy Calvert Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 You can link to the object itself simply by pasting the URL. For example, the above image was taken from the IPS homepage (https://sitecontent.invisioncommunity.com/client-logos/evernote.png). However it would not be an "attachment", meaning you find it in the "Other Media" section. If you have the Gallery product, you could add each of the images to a gallery and link to those potentially as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps you could explain this bit a little better ? For example if you have a folder Quote /public_html/forums/yourcustomimages/images.png etc And put a link in a post Quote https://yourdomain/forums/yourcustomimages/images.png The image should show in the post, so if thats the case and yours isn't showing then something must be setup wrong...

Ricsca Posted November 4, 2021 Author Share Posted November 4, 2021 (edited) The images are on my server ... I wanted to know if there was a way to import them as post images. Edited November 4, 2021 by Ricsca Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Stridgen Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 There would be no way in which to add them as attachments, unless you actively edit posts and do that yourself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
