Images require an "approved image host"

[Merni]

There problem with imgur it didn't work when I tried to put image from there in my dispatch and I couldn't see the image it was just some random error photo

As requested in [violet]'s post, please include the actual link/image that isn't working in your post.

Can we add steam to the list?

Examples: https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ ... rbox=false

https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ ... E1EBC72FA/

(they're functionally the same image, I just stripped away the question mark and the stuff behind it in the latter)

I guess I didn't format my request right, so I'll ask again with the correct format (I hope)

Could we get Giphy.com added to the whitelist?

Example:
https://media.giphy.com/media/l2Z84eFooeHJu/giphy.gif


As well as tenor.com?

Example:

https://tenor.com/xo1t.gif


Giphy is one of the largest gif hosting sites on teh web, and Tenor while not as large is much easier for mobile users to employ.

Just going to second these requests.

No, sorry, as that is a player-controlled server. But I have added Wikipedia.

What about Miraheze, the server for NS Sports Wiki? I believe the server isn't player-controlled (since NSSports Wiki runs on Miraheze as a subdomain).

This was never responded.

Would it be possible to allow images on IIwiki to be linked here?

No, sorry, as that is a player-controlled server. But I have added Wikipedia.

in that vein could we add wikicommons? It's the wiki project media collection.

Added:

• GitHub
• nationstates.net

I don't think Github is on the whitelist? Eg, the following throws an error:

Code: Select all

Tried to remove the raw=true bit, because I thought that was the problem, but it still threw the "unapproved image host" thing at me.

GitHub should work from all domains now.

Hello?

[Outer Sparta]

How do you format an image with Imgur? I never really post with pictures so I don't know how to get it to work.

What are you asking exactly?

Imgur is very easy to use. You upload your picture to imgur, you wait for it to load, you right click it and get the image address. You don't even need to publish to the community or sign in.

If you mean the image is too big to post here, then you need to reduce the size out of imgur, I think. This one I either had to shrink or link. I opted to link.

I actually did the "get share links" and hovered over the option where it said BBCode and it generates whatever picture format (for me, it's png) and in the tags as well.

I'm still confused about what you're trying to do and whether or not you've managed to do it?

Hi team

I would like to request that we can use weebly. I've used it for years as Xuande-Xiphoi and New Hayesalia and have always had a great appreciation for it. It also seems well-run by the site management with maximum file sizes, etc, particularly for free accounts like mine.

For instance, this is my factbook website - https://xuande-xiphoi.weebly.com/

An example of a directly hosted image would be:

Someone needs to check this request

I don't think we can whitelist weebly, as it's a site hosting service, and thus may allow things like inspection of visitors' IP addresses.

Sorry, this won't be whitelisted as it's not a popular image sharing service.

Can Somebody Add Wikia (Vignette and Static)? I use it to Embed Pictures from Wikia to here, so i hope it would be added to the list.

[Arpasia]

Has Wikimedia been accepted yet?

[MossW]

Could you please add Fandom?

The roleplay in my region has a Fandom wiki, and a lot of our images are stored there.

[Indo States]

Has Wikimedia been accepted yet?

It has been already, but we cannot use Wikimedia Images due to a Bug on the Image Header. I had a Forum Thread about it Reporting the Bug. If you need to use it, reupload it to Pinterest or Imgur or whatever any kind of Image Host Provider that could work.

[Mikianistan]

Can you add commons.wikimedia.org
Its the same as Wikipedia but has many more photos and in fact its owned by Wikipedia and its their photo server

Furthermore, I don't think it's a bug on the image header. The thread Indo States has tells me that it's probably Wikipedia making sure we don't use their bandwidth.

OP's problem does stem from a different deficiency in the same area of code, where the forum tries to identify the type of image you're uploading. The forum can't detect a couple of modern image formats, and this isn't easily fixable as it lives in a core technology that we can't update.
