Hi all,`Not sure this is the right place to mention this issue, and if it was already mentioned actually. I am currently writing a trip report and post pictures using the gallery.flyertalk.com website where I uploaded more than 200 pictures. I cannot access this website anymore and all the pictures added to the trip report are not longer visible (see my current trip report : Vacation to the West (AMS-LAS//LAS-BDL//DCA-AMS - AA, AY, BA, DL, 4B, mostly J))
Are there any plans to fix this ? I would not be so happy to change all the links of more than 200 pictures... Right now, I don't even want to continue my report anymore !
Thanks for the support

I'm starting to notice issues where the trending threads page won't actually populate. The page seems to fully load, there is just nothing on it. Refreshing it once or twice gets it to work again, but it seems like the first time I click the Forum button to access to Trending Threads page each day, it is blank. Not sure what the issue is, but like all these other issues, they are only happening after the "upgrade."

I'm trying to find out how to see my old threads…..the my recent post button only show MY last 15 posts, but not posts in threads made recently by others. And 15 is rather limited anyway.
I have read through this and see that others have requested this feature to be reinstated but I don't see much recently. Is there a work around?

What’s happened to Avatars? They seem to have disappeared over the past couple of days.

@IBobi / @IBJoel: Can you tell us if the way "My Threads" has become "My Recent Posts" with changed behaviour is on the bug list?

[QUOTE=sbm12;29095153]I think that the "uploading images to IB servers" issue can also be worked around by manually using the [noparse]
Thanks...I'll switch editors. Bizarre that even when manually editing the "source" in the WYSIWYGs it doesn't work. As for the images, I know how to get around it myself. That doesn't solve the problem for others sharing things resulting in FT stealing content from creators.[/QUOTE]
So for those of us who do want to share photos but avoid content being stolen, what's the work-around? PM if you don't want to post.

Recording a couple of positives, with thanks ... someone IS listening: ^
Uploading with "Manage Attachments" now working perfectly.
Attached images now under the associated text.
However, every time I enter a carriage return in "Quick Reply" [typewriter users may remember that] the screen jumps up the page and I have to scrolll down again to carry on typing (Mac/Safari)

The URL that's been given there is https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/search.php?do=process&searchuser=Mickidon&mythread s=1
You want to use https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/search.php?do=process&searchuser=squeeler&mythread s=1. (But you will need to remove the stray space that goes into the end of that.) Try clicking this: https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/sear...er&mythreads=1 - and if it works, copy that URL and save it.

Empty Trending Threads both before and after the upgrade...

That actually happened to me when Trending Threads was first launched in February: https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/27848785-post26.html
