Photobucket fix

(1/2) > >>

StephenSLR:
I saw this on another forum:

Seems there is a workaround for Photobucket's dastardly third party hosting ban.

If you edit your old posts and add ~original to the end of the image file name it should display properly.

The last part of your image tag will look something like this:

my_image_file_name.jpg[/img]

change it to:

my_image_file_name.jpg~original[/img]

I tried it on one of my posts here and it works.

If you have a lot of pics in your post, click 'Modify' on your post,

CTRL+A to highlight all,

CTRL+C to copy it

then paste the content of your post into Notepad using CTRL+V

go to Edit > Replace > Replace All

and replace all the jpg's with jpg~original then you can copy/paste all that into your post and save.

;)

I went back to one of my old posts where the pics had gone so I could try this out and found that they're now back. What gives?

Possibly a mod has done it for you? When you hit modify have all the jpg's been replaced with jpg~original?

I just went to another one of my posts here and had to do all that myself; still works too.

I know this post is from earlier this year but a better option to photobucket that is free and doesn't lose your links after a while is imgbb.com https://imgbb.com/
