Ability to upload image attachments in signatures

[Michael]

I think it would make things far more easier for all of us and our members if there was an upload signature image feature rather than having to link to an image externally.

Sorry if this has been suggested before.

Thank you.

Is there a problem with allowing users to upload their signature images to the gallery section and then having them hotlink to those images?

With browsers & google getting so hot on security we've gone done the ssl/https route but it's third party hosted images & signature images that are now flagging up warnings on otherwise secure pages. There's add-ons to deal with hosted images but an uploaded to keep signature images inhouse & options re size allowable would be a great feature to see in the core. This is a paying subscriber option for us which I'm possibly going to have to downgrade/disable to stop the timid being frightened away by over-zealous security warnings.

is there already a way to upload an image for the signature ?

I can not find any option for this.
Please help.


Many thanks!

Looking for something similar at XF2...

This is a suggestion thread, if you support the idea, you need to like the first post of the thread to show interest in the suggestion. That is how the XF developers gauge interest in suggestions.

Thanks a lot, I just saw that that is the first point of the guide in this thread. My fault.

Hoping for in 2.2. Kind of interesting it hasn't been added yet.

Still would appreciate this feature...

What in the world even is the logic in providing so many admin options to control images, text, lines and pretty much everything about signature limits - and yet not providing any way to actually have control over signature image dimensions and file-size by making them uploadable?

Not having the gallery add-on might make that a problem.

Users resort to using free image uploaders like Imgur to decorate their signatures. Unfortunately, Imgur is now blocked in the UK, which has caused an absolute mess in signatures. We need this feature now more than ever.
