Mad Rocket Scientist Posted February 2, 2016 Author Share Posted February 2, 2016 43 minutes ago, Evanitis said: Let me note two discoveries that you might find worthy to add to the OP. You can't turn an image into a link by only BBcode or the YSWYG system alone, but the combination of the two works. To do so, one needs to click the 'link' button, add the desired URL into the URL field, and the url of the image - in IMG brackets into the 'Link text' field. It'll look silly in the input field, but works fine once posted. Example: URL: https://exapmle.target.link.ksp/content Link text: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/vwxyz.jpg[/IMG] The other thing is a pet peeve of mine. I hate to have "Edited by Evanitis" notifications under my posts, just because I fixed the spelling after reading what I wrote. But if I post something (even just a dot) right after, the two posts are merged, and the shameful grey text is gone. Of course it only works if no one posts in the thread before the workaround. The time-limit to do so is somewhere between 10 and 30 hours. . <- see? the only trace of my edits. That's a clever alternate way of making a linked image, I'll add that. As RIC pointed out, that doesn't remove the grey lines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Iron Crown Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 If you have a long quote in your post that you'd like to split into multiple quotes, insert the cursor into the quote at the appropriate place and hit enter twice.

Is the formatting automatic or manual? Are you dragging and dropping something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just type a @ and the first few letters. And a list comes up with suggestions. Pick one and it turns blue. Sometimes you need to try a few times. Backspace to the @ and start again.

CatastrophicFailure Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 I think I broke something. Somehow I quoted the ENTIRE THREAD PAGE in a single post.

KocLobster Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 Am I the only one that is unable to delete quotes on mobile? Whenever I'm on my phone, I'm unable to delete a quote, and have to wait until I get home on my computer until I can reply. Pressing the obvious button on my phone, the delete key, will delete any text inside or outside the quote, but not the actual quote itself. I don't know if this is a problem with Android, the forums, Google Chrome, or something else. I couldn't find any similar posts or any solutions. Is anyone aware of this or know how to fix it?

Just do that, then hit "Edit Image," make sure "Keep original aspect ratio" is checked, then resize away! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerospacer Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Why i cannot to embed an imgur album? Quote To embed an imgur album, take the album code from an album, something like "06N4r" from "https://imgur.com/a/06N4r," then paste it into the box that shows up when you click the little white "i" on a black background.

Some forums have this or similar and I find it an excellent feature. By default, all threads where a member posts are added to his subscribed threads (one can unsubscribe if feels better so). In Notification settings is possible to choose if/how to receive notifications about subscribed threads. These options allow good customization, to include receiving a summary of all subscribed threads with new content. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check the checkmark to the right of the title to make it your default feed, which makes it show up at the top of every forum page, right next to "mark site read." It's called settings because that was what it was called on the old forum software.

TanDeeJay Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Can some tags be added to this thread along the lines of "attach image", "insert image" "add screen capture", "screenshot" etc... I was trying to figure out how to attach images and none of my searches on this forum found any hints. It wasn't until I discovered this thread that I found out how. I think it would help other forum newbies like me to find this thread with some tags around attaching screenshots. I've found this thread very useful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
