I want to insert an image through the button in the "create thread" form. I inserted the valid link. The link was visible in BBCode view. The image did not appear in the message. Am I missing anything? Size limitation or anything? BTW I don't want to mess with Cloudinary just add a valid link.

Can you try again? I can not see your original post so don't know what the BBCode is like.

Downloading it and looking at it in a text file it's failing to post the web address. Hidden where the link SHOULD be id just the file name...... I'll try it he.... <img style="max-width:100%;" alt="" src="Image.%20Rock%20Tumbling%20Hobby_files/IMG_20240622_091217884_HDR.jpg"><br></div>

Not sure if the source url is correct or not but the bbcode should be something like:
[img src="abcdefg" alt=" " style="max-width:100%;"]

Are you using Flickr or photo bucket or? Folks have posted instructions for various outside photo apps.

You will need to upload the image somewhere. Maybe you can check flickr out.

This won't work. You will need to upload the image somewhere. Maybe you can check flickr out. I used a valid web address to a picture. It started with www. and ended with .jpg

Am I missing anything? Size limitation or anything? BTW I don't want to mess with Cloudinary just add a valid link. I did a little "sleuthing"... I tried to open the link to the picture. I couldn't open the link. I back-tracked to the actual homepage of the website the image was being taken from. My guess is the image is being "blocked" by the website...since there's a "login". The only way I see around this would be to save the image to your computer...then you can upload the pic via Cloudinary.
