    Resolved [RESOLVED] Attached Images

    Until now there was a "general rule" that when you post one image, then it will display the picture in the attachments, and when you post more than one, it will show up as links.

    Apparently this is not happening anymore.
    For example, in this thread:
    http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.php?t=511995

    Before, it used to show the attached images as links. And I wrote the post by placing image tags within the post to the attachments.

    Now it shows the same pictures 2 times, in the post, and as attachments.

    Why was this changed ?
    Is it going to stay like this ?
    Should I edit all my threads (with images), and move the images in the "Support Images" forum so that I can place them the way I want within the post ?

    Any change that was made happened as a part of the recent upgrade but you can place images anyplace you want via the attach tag, eg [attach]123456[/attach] and the images don't need to be in the support images.

    Hi MartinLiss,

    What I want is exactly the opposite... I want to show the images in the post, and not in the attachments. (Right now it's in both)

    The [attach]123456[/attach] will show as link, that's why I'm using [img] tag.

    Before it used to be links in the attachments section, now it displays the actual image...

    Anyways, I guess there is nothing that can be done about it.

    If you use the Attach tags in the same post as the attachment, it should show the image - and not have it in the list of attachments.

    If something else is happening, can you link to the post?

    Hi si_the_geek,

    I edited the first post to show you want I mean, and changed the img to attach tags:
    http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.php?t=511995

    What I wanted is where I have the "Attachment 1204698710", I want it to show the image, and in the attachments section not to show the images (or just links)
