XF 2.1 Images previously embedded are now not embedding after zero changes

[Cindy]

My forum isn't particularly active as of the moment and I haven't made any internal changes in a while. However, images that were previously embedded are now failing to do so:

The URLs of these images are still working and they still exist, but are suddenly not embedding on the forum, now.

halp.

Imgur recently started blocking external sites from embedding images.

The ones I checked on your site are from imgur.

Good to know.

I've noticed other forums utilizing imgur embeds with no issue. Is there some kind of workaround?

Yeah... the folks that have embedded the images have to have a valid Imgur account.. those linking to "guest posted images" are getting kicked to the curb.
So, if the images aren't in a valid Imgur user account.. odds are they are in the trash bin for displaying on your site.

All from my validated (and signed in) Imgur account.

Only thing is, I have an account on Imgur, and the images still aren't embedding.

Every one of those images I attached were direct from the Imgur website link using their "sharing" code.



If they aren't embedding on your site.. you need to research any errors displayed in your browser console and your HTTP server.
I do NOT have a paid account with them and have no issues using Imgur to provide linked media (albeit I prefer to do it direct from my site).
I do use the Insert Media function and then use the link to the media that Imgur provides.. are you trying to simply paste the link into the editor?
