Hi guys, I would like to ask your opinion on what is the best approach if say I want to attach an image not as a thumbnail but as part of the post itself. As always, any ideas is greatly appreciated. thanks
I'd recommend the Inline Attachments addon
http://addons.elkarte.net/feature/Inline-Attachments.html
thanks
@TE! btw, can you recommend a good hosting site for image to be used in the inline attachment addon?
Imgur.com
@TE @Wizard for some reason, I cant make the inline attachment work. I tried using
[attachimg=1 align=left width=80]http://i.imgur.com/cDjZH6Jb.jpg[/attachimg]
but doesnt seem to work. the addon was enable though.
Am I doing it correctly?
attachimg tag is working only for the attachments, to obtain that result with an attachment the code you should insert is
[attachimg=1 align=left width=80]
Simply upload the image at imgur or tinypic.com, get the code and paste it between
[img]Image url here[/img]
Inline Attachments is made for uploaded attachments..
for external images, hosted by other services you'd use this solution:
or you can use the "width" tag

[img width=80]http://i.imgur.com/cDjZH6Jb.jpg[/img]
Use can use both width and height inside img tag as shown by
