How to: Post multiple in-line images (like the old forum)

Rezen73 · August 2011

Hey all, quick how-to ... post multiple inline images like in the old forum.

Previously, we had to use BBC code, e.g. [IMG] and [/IMG] and put the URL in there.

Now, we just click the 'Insert Image" icon in the toolbar, like in this screenshot:

The forum software will automatically link to it and add it inline to your post.

To add another? Just click the icon again, and type in the URL again, like this:

You can do this repeatedly as needed.

Hope this helps!

I have not be able to get the "insert image" icon to show up on my screen. I was able to attach two images directly from my harddrive. Also is anyone else have issues geting the fourm to operate smoothly?

No jumping. For reference I'm using Chrome on XPsp3 and 7x64sp1.

The post window needs to be a lot bigger to work with images and posts.

Easy to resize...

For those who are so inclined, there is a button that lets you switch between "Show Source" and "Show Rich Text". In source mode, you can edit your post (and insert photos) using raw HTML formatting (rather than BBCode).

Using the "Insert Image" button in Rich Text mode should be easier for most people, though.
