Title: Problem posting photos to LAF
Post by: Yarkshire Gamer on January 19, 2022, 02:48:06 PM
Hi all,

As you probably all know I've been posting stuff on here for years but recently I haven't been able to and the problem lies with photos.

Previously I would simply right click on a photo on my blog (blogger), this would give me a link with a jpg or similar ending, I would post it on here and it was automatically recognised as a photo, once I had put the Img tags on it.

Something has changed and when I get a photo link from blogger it gives this

https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjXCRV8qzSo4IWA1GE0BnGxi-hJQg1EcOCIE4Lv0FSZHizidDnyoARIHIa1-njbTlp0tPcLMLtpXfZOez3DI4S3qsnKqTMyiRwzatYNYPA8bO-ZtnCezUzvzw4BId3Q1BRIRXT0t9SZ8D1I0qWSCQGfuLozfxVhFYvGrtlhfn7wjmiXYiv8-gzbImc_=s3264

Which doesn't get recognised, has anyone else had a similar problem and  / or found a work round ?

Cheers

Sometimes, when pasting the link to a photo, within the LAF image tags a space will appear immediately before the link, which corrupts it. This has been happening for I think about 4 weeks. Delete the space and the link is fixed.

It appears the host site has changed from blogspot.com to blogger.googleusercontent.com.

By wrapping the new image link with the [img] tags you should still be able to post the image.

I saw your post on TMP and offered the same solution there that Ray has here (except my description of what Ray identifies as img tags is a lot more long-winded).
