Is the Image Upload button working?
Ben@84171e7c Saturday 22nd July 2023, 18:15:30

On my forum, the button opens the select image window and after that, nothing happens. I looked in the FTP upload folder and the image is not uploaded to it either. Am I missing something?

If, it isn't uploaded:
  1. (Frontend error) - Then either the images aren't matching with the requirement to be uploaded, but with no alert.
  2. (Backend error) - There is not set directory and is erred out.
  3. (Backend error) - or the upload function doesn't exists

Thanks for the feedback SurveyBuilder. You brought up some great points. My forum has both an uploads folder and also an img folder which I can FTP images and add them as a link. Since I saw the upload button figured it would be faster than uploading the images to postimages.org and entering the link manually.

Right now this button opens the browse window on my Mac, I can select an image but after that, nothing happens after the window closes and no image is uploaded. Does it work on your forum build? On this forum, I don't even see the option to upload an image via the button.

Did not see any settings in Config that list the image size or format, been trying to use jpg as they are smaller and load faster than png.

Don't mean to ask so many questions but there is not a lot of documentation on this software except for this excellent forum. I really like the work you all have done on it so far and would love to see it keep getting better.

Did you manage to get this sorted? I have exactly the same problem.
P.S. Searching the documentation doesn't reveal anything :/

Privacy And Security Concern
While attempting to figure this out I suddenly find an inserted imgur link. As this was a test forum on my MacBook, and not for production use I am surprised, and concerned that a personal image I used to test locally is now publicly accessible online. This is clearly an undocumented breach of privacy. This action is not listed in documentation and requires immediate address.

We are currently working on a local sending system directly in the uploads/ folder of Flartboard.
You can still send your images by FTP if the sending system on the Imagur site.
You can disable image upload in FlatBBeditor plugin settings.

  What do you mean by local sending system? Do you mean a regular file upload? If so I can send the PHP code for that.

Hi  ,
Thank you but I already have the PHP code for that. Simon is looking at the AJAX part to implement it in FlatbbEditor.

Ok, I was just confused on what you’re talking about.
