Well Edge works as expected (i.e. pasting a link to an image results in the image being displayed), but I'd rather not switch browser just for this. All a bit wierd especially with this being a new install. At least I know it's not anything to do with the forum... just wonky FF beahaviour for some reason.

CatastrophicFailure Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 @purpleivan Have you tried “paste as plain text?” Sometimes this seems to make a difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I do that (Ctrl Shift V) then I get the same result plus an error "The link could not be embedded because of an unexpected error: error: undefined." Until just now I've just been using Ctrl-V to paste, but I've found out that pasting works correctly if I select Paste from the right click menu instead. Not a proper solution really as Ctrl-V should work fine. This is clearly an issue with my setup though, not an issue with the forum, so I'll keep looking for a solution. Update... the issues seems to be related to addons I have install in Firefox. If I disable all of them the Ctrl V behaviour is back to normal, as well as a completly different issue I've been looking into. The ones I have are the same as in my old Win 7 install (installed using Sync in Firefox) but one of them must be not playing nicely in the new OS. At least I have something to look into now. Updated update... found out what it was, it was Internet Download Manager. It was set to use Ctrl as a hotkey to force downloading of things clicked on with IDM. That's the same setup as I had in Win 7, which worked fine, but for some reason in the Win 10 install it breaks my use of Ctrl V in this specific way. Disables the feature now (didn't use it anyway) and the problem is now fixed. Edited June 23, 2019 by purpleivan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanamonde Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 When I paste a pic into a post it displays as a link until I hit the submit button and then the image replaces the text. I have noticed no recent changes to this. Win7/Chrome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VoidCosmos Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Why do all mods have a profile picture? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I leave it up to the reader to decide if I mean the pictures, or the mods. But seriously most people who stay on a forum for more than a few months tend to customize their profile a bit. Most of those who have been on a forum more than a year have fully done do. Moderators tend to fall into the latter category, and those that don't fall in the former.

Find a way to be a couch potato... but you'll have no money. Therefore, you'd be a broke couch potato without the money to afford a couch.
