Pics as Attachments in Posts Missing

[Gruff]

Hi,
I was wondering what happened to the pics? In the post it says there are attachments, but doesn't show them.

This is the same for quite a few post with attachments.

Cheers

Fear not, a crack team will be launched to investigate.

I'll have to go digging and re-attach them, the forum dose not allow attachemnts anymore, thios was done to save server space. images are now required to be hosted off site. So some of the older photos that were directly attached don't work anymore.

I have just been fixing them on a case by case basis when needed.

Thanks. Photos in Merch and Build posts are essential as a visual history. The ones on 'Spam to 1 million' can be turfed.
I do hope they were all backed up.
I wish membership would have been made aware of this prior to the move to the new server, so that we could go through our posts and replace the attachments.

I wish I had also realised, it’s been a ongoing pain in the butt but it is what it is.

They are all backed up I just have to relink them manually.
There are actually a lot less than you might think as a lot of people already were hosting photos off site anyway.

Gruff please see attached screenshot.
is this the images you were referring

to?

I can imagine that it's a giant pain in the butt.

Yep, those are the images, but I saved you the trouble and fixed them already

I'll go through my other posts over the years bit by bit and replace the attachments with links to my imgur account.

Thanks for your help. Much appreciated.
