Post by pistolpete »

Ive noticed I see less photos recently and just the little icon showing where a photo should be, has something changed or is it more difficult to post a picture

Certain threads seem to have lost all their photos for me as well. Not checked my own thread yet!

Can you identify any particular thread for us to review?

Hi Chaps,

Been playing and have this observation.

Chose a random thread

phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=7222

and it wasn't working.

But I remembered something about the phpbb playing interference, so I deleted it to this

viewtopic.php?f=8&t=7222

Now I see the photos.

Weird , but does that help?

It has happened on my BMW Seats thread - I have re-linked all the pictures, Pete Boole still can't see them though, I could see some, but not all, but now I can see them all....

On a few threads where I can't see pictures on my laptop, I can see the pictures if I look at the thread on my phone.

My pictures are on a OneDrive account.

Neil.

Likewise, some show, some not.

Onedrive received a bit of an update there recently, maybe something to do with that?

Images from Onedrive

Post by Hawaiis0 »

There is a bug I believe with onedrive shortened codes generated to embed photos into forums, hence the multitude of image errors currently being seen across the forum. This has been happening across various platforms since March at least . At the moment although a fix was issued, it does not seem to have worked.

Hi Team,
Can we have some feedback if the issue is now resolved?
I am now seeing more images after contacting Microsoft, but have no feedback from them.

Generally, I think I see most of not all pictures within posts, but I do note Farmer Richards avatar doesn't show and the banner Richard users in his sign off ( I think it's the 3 cars in a line we did mugs for) doesn't show. Both just show small " image"
What goes together.... Must come apart.

I use 'one drive' and have definitely been having photo's come ang go from this forum. Both those I've posted and those from others. I've just posted one in the 2026 calendar thread from the 'Lotus Remembered / Elite 50 years' event at Hethel. It's was there just now let's see if it stays...

When I'm using my computer (Windows & less than a year old) I can see pictures that were posted more than a year ago. I can't see new pictures.

When I look on my phone (iPhone 6s, & I'm guessing it's 8 years old), I can see all the pictures. I don't like using my phone for that kind of thing, so my phone is not a solution to this problem for me.

This picture problem is so annoying, I may end up defecting to TLF, although everything except the pictures is better here.
