Surely, the images were placed in the appropriate places. Shouldn't it recognize that there are images in a post and then BBCode wrap them to where XF placed the new images?
 
Automated triage: Awaiting feedback

Thank you for reporting this issue. We need a little more detail to look into this. The importer turns image tags and Invision attachment markup into images and attachments, but copies plain text addresses as-is, so we need to know what the original Invision post contained.

  • Can you share the raw content of one affected post from the Invision database (the 'post' column of forums_posts), with the domain obscured if needed? We need to see whether the URLs are inside <img> tags or are plain text.
  • Did these images display as images in Invision before the import, or as plain text links there too?
  • Do the URLs point to files in the Invision 'uploads' directory that are also listed as attachments of that post in Invision, or to images stored elsewhere?
  • Which Invision version did you import from, and was this 2012 content originally migrated into Invision from another platform?

This is an automated assessment. A member of staff may review and update it.
