Title: Uploading profile image
Post by: Songbird on July 07, 2020, 08:18:28 am: Forum url: http://muslimvilla.smfforfree.com/

My forum is only uploading personalized images for profiles. But profile images with direct links aren't uploading even after clicking on 'change profile' button. It used to until recently. Please help.

Post by: Songbird on July 07, 2020, 09:44:36 am: It's the "Forum Profile Information" page accessed from 'profile' button on homepage when user is logged in.

Post by: Songbird on July 08, 2020, 11:17:43 am: Hi SMF. It's still not working unfortunately. Direct link or image link not accepted. After clicking the 'change profile' button, the image might sometimes appear on the 'forum profile info' page but it doesn't appear on the forum where members post nor does it appear at top of homepage when the user logs in.

I was informed of this issue by another user of my forum 2 days ago. Will it help if I send the direct link of that page?

All other features in this page seem to be working except the custom photo options.

Title: Re: Uploading profile image
Post by: Songbird on July 08, 2020, 04:45:44 pm: It was an image saved at Imgur with direct link. We have posted many images from Imgur. Never had any problems.

Post by: SMF For Free on July 08, 2020, 05:18:35 pm: I meant the image url you are using as the remote picture.

I have tested uploading a picture and using a linked image and both worked on my test site.

Post by: Songbird on July 08, 2020, 05:42:20 pm: O, i see.

This is direct link url

I tried both. Neither are working on that page.

Post by: Songbird on July 08, 2020, 05:47:45 pm: Just now I also tried it on the forum. Direct link is working on the forum, not the image link. But for profile pic none are working.

Post by: Songbird on July 08, 2020, 05:51:54 pm: Though I'm running an older version of the forum, I don't think that should matter for something as this.
Title: Re: Uploading profile image
Post by: SMF For Free on July 08, 2020, 06:07:59 pm: It looks like https is not supported

Post by: Songbird on July 08, 2020, 06:18:07 pm: In this page of my forum, neither of the 2 https links are working, although older profile images of others have same https links and they're okay .. but I guess if any of the users try to change them they'll face the same problem.

Any suggestions how this can be corrected?

I tried that as well, copied and pasted that link. Didn't work :(

Post by: Songbird on July 08, 2020, 07:19:15 pm: As I see, you're right it's not supporting https ..... can SMF do something to make its server compatible with http which is I think the older protocol ?

Post by: Songbird on July 10, 2020, 06:05:16 pm: Today it suddenly started to work with the http// link.
