Image Embed Problem

Try to embed a profile photo or any other photos in a forum post or a groups forum. It will not work. The WYSIWYG messes up the image path.

what path does it do?  you may have to add a slash in front of your url

I tried it on the Dolphin test demo site - http://demozzz.com/dolphin7b/forum/groups/forum/Image-Embed-test-group-0.htm#topic/image-embed-from-a-profile-photo.htm

Here is the HTML from the WYSIWYG

<p>lets try to embed an image from a profile photo</p>
<p><img src="../../../m/photos/get_image/file/c1884b360689b2b61c3acb52d7daf787.jpg" border="0" alt="image description" title="image title" width="407" height="481" /></p>

your embedding using a uri you have to know and use the real path

IE:

modules/boonex/photos/data/file

or for profile

media/images/profile/ID/

But the problem is I am using the little "image embed" icon from the WYSIWYG. I am not entering HTML....

It asks for an Image URL, I enter the URL but the WYSIWYG changes the URL to a relative path instead of using the full URL.

Try it out and you will see.

I think I saw something about this one time but not sure, are you putting http:// in front of the image URL (not just www.mysite.com/1.jpg) ? If not, try adding that.

Maybe you arent quite getting me on this so I made a video...

ok too many ../ ?? redo html till it shows then the tinymce config is off

i did a rework like this using             convert_urls : false, or something

Well I was hoping to alert boonex to this so they can fix it. My users do not know HTML so they dont know why it doesnt work.

Can you tell me what file has the WYSIWYG setting to "convert_urls : false, or something".

Thank you for your help and thank you for making this a ticket so it can be fixed in version 7. Since this is an existing issue in version 6, I wanted people to know how to fix it so this is what I did.

in /plugins/tiny_mce/tiny_mce.js

On line #6096 change

convert_urls : 1,

to

convert_urls : 0,

That fixed it for me.
