Pasting image in community thread

[jobsonkjoseph]

Hi, In previous community platform, i was able to copy and paste images into the posts. But in the new platform, i'm not able to. Is this issue only faced by me or anyone else. Also after typing an expression and posting, getting HTML error.

Hi @jobsonkjoseph

For images you should use the Photos button (in red below) when posting a question or a reply. 

Are you getting the HTML error after posting the expression in the main body of the text, or in the "code" section (highlighted in blue above)?

Best regards

Ok. I think i'm only one affected here. Because i'm not getting any of those buttons when i post or reply. Attaching the screenshot for reference.

Hmmm, that looks super strange. 

I should probably point out that I am feeling the platform having become a bit sluggish in the last 30 minutes, so it could be because of something happening on the backend of the platform currently. 

But otherwise I'd recommend you log out and then in again to see if that solves anything. 

I'll keep this under supervision. 

Thanks in advance

Hi Mattias, I did logout and logged back in couple of times, still no luck. Also, comparing to Jive platform, this is a bit sluggish.

Mattias, if problem does not rectify itself let's get a support ticket open on this and we will need to provide them with username.
@jobsonkjoseph, thank u for letting us know. we need and want this feedback!

Hi, how about ctrl+v an image into a post? This was also possible in Jive and super useful when taking screenshots. Now I have to save every single image and upload it.

Juraj, yes! this drove me bananas yesterday as I was authoring documents and needed to move quickly. I was a little annoyed to have to upload each time (sigh.....) I checked this out on the lithosphere and while it's not an option now it seems to be in the works (tho no date was given)

@jobsonksoseph
Are you still having an issue with the Rich Text editor not showing up when creating a new posts?
I switched to view as your account and it was showing correctly, so let me know if it's not resolved.
Thanks,
Jeremy
