Hello,

First time Active Social / Forums user here. So far I'm quite impressed with the product iteself.

I am having a bit of difficulty with forum images in posts though. They always show as broken images. I can upload the attachment, see that it is there, insert it into the message, but I always wind up with a broken image link in the post.

Any advice is much appreciated. I didn't catch this in initial testing, and the website took off faster than I expected so I'm stuck with user compliants already

Are you using some type of URL re-writing module? What does the link look like when you hover over the image icon?

Here's a bit more detail:

-This only happens when HTML is disabled.
-When HTML is disabled, the token gets placed into the post body, but when previewed or submitted, it a broken image.


In preview, the url looks like this <site url>/DesktopModules/ActiveForums/viewer.aspx?portalid=0&moduleid=396&attachid=5

When the token gets added, does it look like ? (Not like a typical HTML img tag)

Are you storing attachments on the filesystem or in the database? (File Store option on the Forum > Features tab > Attachment [...] sub options)

If you are storing them on the file system, do the images actually exist in the Portals/{PortalID}/activeforums_Attach directory?

The images are in the Portals/0/activeforums_Attach folder.

The Token look like a textual token initially or something to that effect. During preview, it looks like the standard broken image indicator that you demonstrated above. FileSystem is selected for image storage.

Is this a bug in the product, or a bug in my implementation? I really don't want to spend time chasing ghosts if it isn't my issue.

Are my messages getting through, or are you censoring them because you don't want to admit a bug publically. Really, all I need to know, if if I did something wrong in my configuration or if there is a bug on your end. There is no shame in a bug if it gets added to a list and resolved. Refusing to publish my inquires in your Nazi style forum on the other hand, there is rightful amount of shame in that.

I am sorry for the slow response. We had a long weekend here, and I am trying to play catch up. All posts in this forum are moderated and I did not get a chance to approve them until now.

In any case, I answered a similar post earlier today here: http://www.activemodules.com/active...tor/#69983

I believe the issue is with the text editor, but I need to speak with the development team to find the root cause.
