    I was giving this new update a open minded chance, but after using it, I have to say.... It Sucks!!!! many things require more clicks to do than before. I attached a pix to a thread and it shows up as a link. What the hell with that. Before it was intuitive, now it makes no sense.

    It was Not Broken, but you had to change it for no other reason than to change it.

    When my subscription runs out, that's it, no renewal for me!

    Yes certain symbols did not transfer correctly. We have been fixing case by case. Can use a find/replace tool once we know all symbols affected and their corresponding code

    You must have missed the numerous explanations and reasons for changing it. Images should not post as a link, so you have either found a bug or you are using the software incorrectly.

    sorry ... but the new software works mostly as it should, maybe you just have to use it more often to get familiar !

    don`t you think, that there might be a slight chance that the real "problem" is sitting in front of your screen ? ;)

    First time I tried attaching a pic since the new software. Figured it out that you need to click 'full image' for it to show inline.

    It attached the picture to the post as a file, but it didn't insert it inline automatically.

    From desktop browser. Clicking Full Image gets it in there inline. Not a big deal for me and I think most have figured it out, but I still see some people's pictures left as attachments.

    So when you upload an image and don't click "full image", it does not automatically insert when you click reply? Strange because it works for me. What browser are you using?

    Chrome Mac seems ok. Chrome Windows on work computer doesn't do it automatically.

    Only thing I can think of is the browser being 64bit vs 32bit. But as @ME308 said above, it is working for them. Make sure you have JavaScript enabled/allowed in browser

    Hello together,

    sorry, if it has been asked before, but I didn't go through the whole thread now.
    How to get the 'Owner' box above one's postings next to one's user name and subscription status?

    Best Regards from Germany and Merry Christmas
    Martin

    Here's a link to the thread that explains it.

    That's weird, BUT, in edit, I added a space after the image to the text and it went away. It wasn't actually a link, just sort of weird underlined text, as clicking it didn't send me to a dead link.

    Take a look: https://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/posts/145740723/

    Try posting some more images, but insert a space or start a new line after you insert the image.

    Are you using a phone or tablet?

    It still shows as red underlined text for me. Only when I log out the text becomes normal, but then the images are not displayed either. I have noticed this symptom earlier too and happens at least when posting with my Windows 10 PC / Chrome browser. As far as I know, I have added new lines after the image.

    Perhaps it happens when adding two or more images at once and then adding text between them?

    I just went back and looked and sure enough the underlines are back.

    Some weird coding issue. Does it ALWAYS happen? Post a couple images here with text. If you have a different browser, try that instead of Chrome.

    appears to be happening when you insert copy between images. did it for me too in the post above. Not a link to anything, just a weird underlining, similar to what the images get that allow you to click on them and view them individually fullscreen in your browser.
