As there appears to be some inconsistencies, I thought I'd document the behaviour of each of the attachment options.

------

1. Click on the "Image" button in the CKEditor, click on "Choose File" and browse to the file, click on "Send it to the Server", and click "OK".

  • The image appears inline at the configured "Thumbnail size", but it is not clickable and it does not appear in the attachment table when viewing the entry.

2. Drag and drop an image into the body of the message.

  • The image appears inline at the configured "Thumbnail size" and is clickable.  As with "1," however, it does not appear in the attachment table when viewing the entry.

3. Drag and drop an image into the "Drop attachments here ..." section.

  • The image appears in the attachment table at the configured Thumbnail Size, and is clickable.

4. From the attachment table, click on "Choose File" and then click on "Upload."

  • The image appears in the attachment table at the configured Thumbnail Size, and is clickable.

------

We need to make sure the images are always clickable so that you can always view the full-sized image.  Any suggestions for fixing this, short of reverting to v2.9.2, would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks again,

Devin

When an image is attached using the "Image" button in the CKEditor, that image does not appear in the attachment table for that entry.  In addition, the image can not be clicked on to view the full image.

This was not the case in v2.9.2, at least.

Is there some configuration option I could toggle to change this behaviour?  By default, we would like any attachment (whether it's made using drag and drop, the Image button, or the "Choose File" button) to appear in the attachment table *and* be clickable to view the full image.

Thanks,

Devin
