Dear all, sorry for asking you another question, but today after I finally recovered all my logbook entries, I updated to elog 3.1.1 and now I have a problem uploading images.

This is what I do:

• Click on the insert "Image" button in the editor toolbar
• In the popup window I select the picture I want to upload and then press "Send to server". I see the file appearing among the attachments at the bottom of the message.
• I click OK, but the popup complains that the Image Source URL is missing. Indeed when I switch to the other tab the URL field is open.

I have tried on your demo logbook and after the image is sent to the server, the URL field is automatically filled.

What am I doing wrong? With 2.9.2 it was working normally.

Thanks again and best regards

Antonio

I entered this image exactly as you described. When I click OK, the dialog disappears. Can you check if it works for you on this server? Maybe with different browsers?

Dear Stefan, thanks for your answer. 

I tried to add a picture to this reply but I got the same error message with both Firefox and Chrome. 

For sure the pictures were not included in the message, but I have the feeling they were not even uploaded to the server. 

(I'm on Windows 7) 

Thanks for your help,

Antonio

Okay, I can confirm this bug: with Windows 10 using Firefox 47.0 the dialog hangs as soon as I press "Send it to the server". When it returns, it did not upload anything. That is why it asks for URL after pressing OK.

Quick fix: just attach the image and use the URL of the attachment.

I did it here:

If you go on the attached image with the right mouse button, then you'll get a menu. In this menu there should be some entry like "copy image link" (my PC is unfortunately configured in German, I can't look it up).

This copies the URL in the clipboard and you can just paste it in the URL entry of the image button.

Yes, I can confirm that the image button upload does work in the Linux Demo logbook (Windows 10 client host, Firefox 47.0 client) and it still does not work in this Forum.

This is another piece of information to help in the debugging. To my standards logbooks, I have added the "demo". On the demo I can upload pictures while I can't on the other logbooks.

This is indicating that the bug has something to do with the logbook configuration other than with the editor or the image upload plugin.

Thanks for your help,

Antonio
