As far as I can see you cannot upload pictures. Correct?

here or on your website?

You are right. By default you can’t upload images and embed them in your forum topic / replies.

There are plugins to allow it. Also you can upload images to your domain and paste their urls ok.

Finally you can paste imgr links and they will show inline. I tend to use imgr links these days.

I have asked clients to paste image links on my website using ibb or imgur but the sites remove the images after a while.

Is there an option to strip the html and have plain text and no embeds.

So basically if someone shares a youtube video i just need the URL and not the embedded video which goes to not found if in future they delete it. Or same applies for image.

Just plain text based message with no a tag and embed so that even if its deleted in future it just remains as a text in the forum response and not as a 404.

We have the same problem: users cannot upload images to our forum. How can this problem be solved ? It would be best if users could upload images without admin intervention.
