Images on NodeBB

[vjvanjungg]

Hi guys, can i ask when users upload images to NodeBB forum, where will those images be stored or take up the space? i’m looking to host a first ever one for my blog—looks really funMany thanks!

@vjvanjungg you can't upload images here, to add an image you have to provide a url to an existing image online somewhere.

Yes you can! I had just never noticed this button:

And had always just used this one:

Hence why...

Personally I tend to upload to an install of the Cloudron Surfer app and then copy the url from there.

Maybe this ist what you are looking for:

You can store images in a separate S3 bucket.

yeah that would lighten the load a bit i’m figuring it out for the connection thx guys.

the vertical image icon next to the smiley face is good for uploading img, i saw it yesterday maybe there is a way to disable it @jdaviescoates
