@Ed, Image Function in Word Editor

Hi Ed,

When I try to add an image, the box has a red line around it, and it is not allowed to be posted.

It is on a laptop.

Hi Sharkie

How are you uploading the image?

1. Right Click on the image you want to upload
2. Open the image in a new window
3. Copy the address
4. Click on the media icon above the editor
5. Enter the address in to the window
6. Press save.

Hurdle test.

Seems easy enough!

seems to work now...that's how I always did it, but it didn't work for quite some time after the previous update.

Let's see . . .

Is there any way we can set image size parameters to avoid scrolling?

@Ed,

Thanks for your reply.

I usually just copy and paste the image into the editor.

The new editor first had more options than it does now. Perhaps it varies by user device or OS.

I dont have a media icon. Only a video one. It does not accept an image URL.

The hyperlink button does not appear to work either for me, but that is less vital for memes.

Steps:

I also have the video button but it worked for the image.

"I also have the video button but it worked for the image."

100% correct. Me also.

As a rule I type a random character before and after the inserted media...for some or other reason this helps if a video or pic doesn't post as it should.

Hi Ed,

I still cant add images. I often notice that other people add images, but then it appears broken a day later.

Even when I try add a video a red line surrounds the white box edge, preventing me from posting.

I get this for images usually, but when I do not - the image just appears as a broken image.

Why was this posted in the rugby section?

I used to just be able to copy and paste the image into the white box, without using the image link. (or video link).

Put characters in the white box...before and after the picture.

Works fine here!
