Sounds like a simple feat, but can't seem to get it to work. I tried using the insert image option with a url to the cloud drive location of the image I wish to upload, but without success.

All help appreciated.

It should be as simple as it sounds.

For example this:

Code: Select all

will produce this:

And this:

Code: Select all

[url=http://imgur.com/GogMKVg.png][img]http://i.imgur.com/GogMKVgl.png[/img][/url]


will make it clickable, like this:

Feel free to post the code you tried by enclosing it into code tags like this:

Code: Select all

First thing I'm thinking is that the board breaks the Https encryption and or onedrive simply doesnt support forums like this (or don't trust it)

As an alternative to onedrive I personally use Inara.cz for hosting images, but I also use that page for keeping track at how my wallet and what not does in ED.

Apparently your problem was that there was a comma instead of a dot in the image name (photo,jpg instead of photo.jpg) which was encoded into %2c.

Don't think so - changing it to %2d yields this:

Even a full stop doesn't work...

@FCB1891 - you can get the link you need to use for public display from your onedrive storage simply by viewing the original image (i.e. the jpg is displayed by itself in the browser) and using the link from the address bar.
