Hey,

Another quick question:

How to have IMGBB Plugin working in private messages?

I do not see "Upload Image to Reply" button available in messages.

Thanks,
Leo




I saw this function available on another forum.





Thanks for your help!

I have this installed, there is a slight glitch.

When you start a message,the add image box is not there,when you reply it is.

So not there on initial message,but does appear thereafter.

I dont think this plug-in is now supported so there is probably no solution.

Unless anybody else can help

As stated, this is a closed plugin (meaning you cannot edit it to fix any issues) so your best bet would be to request a new plugin in the Request a Plugin board.

If you have one of those special open version then you would need to edit this line in the plugin to add support for certain omitted pb route variations (e.g. "new_message" and "new_conversation"):

if (new RegExp("^new_post|edit_post|edit_thread|quote_posts|quote_messages|new_thread|new_user_conversation$", "i").test(route_name)) {

suggested edit to plugin author^[1]:

if (new RegExp("^new_post|edit_post|edit_thread|quote_posts|(new|quote)_messages|new_thread|new_(user_)?conversation$", "i").test(route_name)) {

You'll notice that "new_user_conversation" is supported in the original line meaning if you started a new conversation from the user's profile page by hitting the Send Message button then that route is covered and you get the upload button but if you start cold (i.e. "new_conversation" by hitting Create Message button) then that is not covered. So basically a low tech workaround would be to start new convos using the button on the user's profile page rather than adding in that recipient after the PM form loads.
