Hello,

 

I cannot or I don't know how to put an image from my computer in my replies. Even with an image from the web with an URL adress it doesn't work.

 

- when I copy an image or a photo file and insert it in my text when I try to show the reply the pop up  say's "You are not allowed to use that image extension on this community."

- same pop up with an URL

 

However the image is well in format .jpg. Firefox or Microsoft edge same, Windows 10

 

Thanks to enlighten me

What's the URL you're trying to use?

Try clicking on the 'special BB code' button (to the left of the Font icon) and see if it works. - Thats how i have to post most of my pics on here.

You can't post directly from your computer, you have to go via a photo hosting site like postimage. See this teach in, https://forums.autos...ain-april-2018/

Thanks all. Yes the only solution is to host the image in a photo hosting. It works now.

Thanks a lot!
