Hello,

I've noticed that all of the photos I've linked to in my posts from Flickr aren't showing up. Only the html code or URL is showing up. Here is an example of a URL:

IMG]http://www.flickr.com/photos/yagablue/8363200090/[/IMG]
Here is the example of HTML code:

IMG]https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/<a href=[/IMG]
In each case, this is the same picture. Other pictures from this album are also not loading. So, here are pictures from another album to see if that is the problem:

Does anyone have any idea what is going on with FTE and Flickr or my albums on Flickr? I haven't changed any settings on Flickr or on FTE so I'm at a loss. I just know my images don't appear yet images from others do appear. Perhaps theirs are hosted on FTE. I normally use Chrome for my browser but for this post I used IE to see if that was the issue. Both of my browsers are up to date. Also, I've noticed my pictures don't show on my android, my home PC, or my work PC.

If anyone has possible solution to my problem, I'm all ears.

Thank you,

Aaron

 

You need to copy and paste the ".jpg" code and not just the link to the page where the picture can be found.

In Flickr, click on SHARE, then GRAB the HTML.BBCODE, then check the BBCODE. Copy and page the code that shows in the box.

 

Here is a LINK to the page for one of your pictures:

RH Front Angle | Flickr - Photo Sharing!

You are apparently adding the wrong codes when posting a link.

 

Very good, I'll try the BBCODE since I've been using the HTML. I've also been grabbing everything in the Share box using URL or HTML. When I get to a comp I'll try a couple tests here. What's funny is that I've used the HTML before and it worked. It only recently stopped showing pictures in my post.

 

Here is the first test with BBCODE:

http://www.flickr.com/photos/yagablue/6769220057/http://www.flickr.com/photos/yagablue/6769220057/ by http://www.flickr.com/people/yagablue/, on Flickr

Also, I've noticed that if I use the "Insert Image" box, the [URL] shows up on top and bottom of my photo and the caption trails the photo instead of showing beneath it.



Here is a test with HTML without using "Insert Image":

<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/yagablue/6769220057/" title="RH Front Angle by Yagablue, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7166/6769220057_fbc42f9f56_b.jpg" width="1024" height="768" alt="RH Front Angle"></a>



Okay, so that didn't work. Here is HTML using the "Insert Link":

<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/yagablue/6769220057/" title="RH Front Angle by Yagablue, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7166/6769220057_fbc42f9f56_b.jpg" width="1024" height="768" alt="RH Front Angle"></a>




Okay, that just showed the hyperlink, which is accurate. Here is a final test of "Insert Image" with HTML:

[IMG]<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/yagablue/6769220057/" title="RH Front Angle by Yagablue, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7166/6769220057_fbc42f9f56_b.jpg" width="1024" height="768" alt="RH Front Angle"></a>[/IMG]




Didn't work. And just to round things off, here is BBCODE again without using "Insert Image":

So, it seems that I've got it figured out. How odd that using "Image Insert" and HTML worked a little over a month ago and now it doesn't. I'll have to have an admin help me make changes on one of my posts that is older than 30 days so the images will display again.

Thank you for your help, glruff!

 

I think admins turned off HTML code a week or so ago.

 

Well that would explain why my pictures went away! LOL! Do I need to contact the moderator of the forum I posted in to restore my photographs? There is only one closed for editing post that I need to do this with.

 

Yes or send me a link and I will see if I can help
