Auto embedding thumbnail photos?

[Alvin63]

Is there a way of having uploaded thumbnails auto embed in a post, rather than users moving a mouse over the thumbnail and selecting "install"? I'm just finding a lot of people now just can't be bothered to do that and just upload the thumbnails. But they also prefer seeing the photos larger and embedded ...........

ie so when they upload a photo it automatically embeds in the post?

@AndyB has add-ons to insert thumbnail, full image and remove options. Here is the thumbnail addon.

I think that just removes the option to insert a full image and leaves everything as thumbnails. I was wanting to automatically insert the image in the post instead of thumbnails. But thanks.

I linked to the first one I found. I have my site set to automatically insert a full image and remove the thumbnail option using his add-ons. There may be one that does the same for thumbnails.

Maybe this one? Just wondering if it inserts them in the right place. Some people don't hit return before embedding an image and it breaks the text up.

Yes, that is for converting existing thumbnails to full size images. Not sure where it inserts the full size image if the thumbnail was never inserted but I would assume @ the end of the post.

To automatically insert an attached image as FULL SIZE and remove the thumbnail option - these are the two necessary addons..

1) https://xenforo.com/community/resources/insert-attachment.5614/
2) https://xenforo.com/community/resources/remove-insert-thumbnail.5620/

 

[Alvin63]

Thanks. So are both of them needed? Seems a bit confusing if they both do the same thing.

Edit - sorry, read again "and remove the thumbnail option"

#1 invokes the automatic insert full size image.
#2 removes the insert thumbnail option.

Thanks, yes sorry I realised that after posting and just edited the post above

Thanks. Installed and they work great. Image embedded - no thumbnails. Although I quite miss seeing the thumbnails there. Will try it for a while anyway.

I also have Xon's attachment improvements installed to remove exif data from uploaded images - just wondering if this is going to affect that (ie bypass it).
