Image links not working
« on: »
Hi

Probrably something I am doing wrong but, I have been unable to embed or show images in this forum, for example the following code just shows an empty box
Code: [Select]
[img width=300 height=240]https://imgur.com/gallery/telford-YUkz1Fe[/img]
And below


any idea

You appear to be trying to put the Imgur website link directly into the [ img ] tag, rather than the embedded link. When you've uploaded to Imgur, click the 3 dots in the top right of the picture, choose 'get share links', then copy the 'BBCode' output:





The link should be in the format "https://i.imgur.com/_______".

If the method above isn't working for whatever reason, right click on the image in Imgur and 'open image in new tab' (or any equivalent wording on other operating systems), and this should open a page with the i.imgur link you need.

If all else fails, just provide the Imgur link, but of course it's ideal if you can embed the images directly.

Hi Thanks for the reply

For some reason I do not get the 'get share links' drop down options you had shown . I get copy, download, comment ..


However I can open in a new window, then paste the url, even then it says image not available , as below

You need to link the images individually in the img tags, not the gallery URL.
