What version of b2evolution are you using? There should be a link that says "Add this code to your post" or something like that. The wording and the location of the link vary with different versions, so which are you using?

Welcome to the forum.

hi,

i´m using version 0.9.2

Yes there is a button which should allow me to upload an image (with size restriction). I click that, do what i should do, and the result is that there is an image uploaded (I know so, because if i upload it again, i get a warning message saying it is already there), but i cannot see the image.

you mention something about code... should i cut and past a (html?) code somewhere?

After you upload the image do you not have a button (in the upload popup) that says "add this code to your post"?

yes it does. It exactly says that (with some code above)

Chris

In addition, when I press "add this code" and I return to my edit window of the blog, that code is added.
Now when I press Save, the following error returns:
Cannot update, please correct these errors:

Found invalid URL: Invalid URL

Is it possible you've added your own site to your local antispam blacklist? Or perhaps the name of the image you are linking contains a banned keyword? Does this happen with every image you try to upload and include in a post?

Just a bit more...

This is what´s created when I´ve uploaded the image:
<img src="http://businessandculture.net/cultureblog/media/Zidane WC2006.jpg" width="109" height="106" alt="" />

When I paste from http:// to .jpg in a browser window, it does display the image correctly.

When I remove the SPACE between Zidane AND WC2006.jpg, the blog edit window saves correctly, but does not show the image (instead, i get a box with an X)

the website is
www.cultureandbusiness.net/cultureblog

thx
Chris

Have you tried renaming the file to not have a space in it then uploading and inserting? A _ or simply remove the space? I don't know too well how the code works - just trying to see if there's something that can be figured out for you. A long time ago I figured out that even though images can have spaces in the name that didn't mean every utility and browser would be happy with them and show them the same way. For my purposes I decided I'd never try to upload an image that had spaces just because it's extremely likely that images without spaces will always work.

Hi EdB,

That did it!
Excellent tip: I removed the space in the filename, and now it works.
Perfect!

While I´m at it... :oops: would you know how I can put "stuff" (images, website references/text etc) accross this layout I´m using?
Or am i then talking about a whole new template and/or advanced php/html editing?

Thanks for helping out with the image problem!

Glad we got one problem straightened out, but I'm afraid I can't help you with the second because the link you provided doesn't go anywhere in my Firefox. I get the "problem loading page" page and the "server not found" message - stuff that Firefox makes when it can't connect.

Well, I´ll take care of that later.

Thanks again for your help!
