    I am running vbulletin v4 on this forum

    www.photography-forum.org

    i have updated to the most recent version of tapatalk but when i view threads with images in them i just get question marks instead of images.

    Another admin on my board emailed you and you said it was corrected in the new tapatalk update. Like i have said i have updated but no change.

    Please can you halp.

    Thanks in advance.

    Just to add as much info as i can. I have looked at my forum and i can view images that are linked to other websites but any images that are directly uploaded to the forum will not display.

    I can view avatars etc but no images.

    I have the forum attachments folder set to 777 so dont know what else i can do.

    Please help - this app is brilliant but really needs to display images for a photography forum.

    Great you have checked-in as we receive some emails from your users too. Can you give me a sample URL of the thread that contains attachment images and not working?

    Are you able to upload images from iPhone?

    Wow thanks for the quick reply.

    I have just tried to upload an image from my iphone and it failed with the message "Upload failed - contact your administrator ... etc."

    Here is a link to a thread that has images that cannot be viewed

    Here is a link to a thread that the images can be viewed

    The difference is the images in the first thread were uploaded to the forum. The second thread they are linked to photobucket or another image hosting site.

    To try and give you as much info as possible - the images are stored in the forum filesystem not the database. Avatars do show ok on my iphone.

    I think i found out something.

    The app will try to get thumbnail and pic url both, but your forum seems not support thunbnail.

    Here is solution,
    1. open mobiquo/functions/get_thread.php
    2. find line
    $attachment_thumbnail_url = $GLOBALS[vbulletin]->options[bburl].'/'.$thumbnail_attachment_matchs[2][0];
    it should at line 1195 & 1202.
    3. comment them or remove them

    Done what you asked and no change im afraid

    Just to let you know the forum supports 2 formats of thumbnail - GD & Image Magic. It was set to GD but I have changed it to Image Magic and still no change.
