Hmm you’re right, and yes it appears to only happen in HTML (Advanced Post Editor) posts that use a specific height and width like <img src="https://i.imgur.com/UceteGw.jpg">
Discourse displays the image correctly with just the raw link i.e. just https://i.imgur.com/UceteGw.jpg
I could fix those instances by adding another line of code to the importer script, but I’m not sure if that will be a common issue. I’ll make note of it, thanks for the useful feedback.
The Simple Editor also allows exact image dimensions, but I thought that they were discarded during the conversion process. Could you please send me a link to a post with stretched images that was created with the Simple Editor? Appreciate it.
Excellent, thanks a lot for confirming. :+1:
I seem to remember that you were using an older iOS device that no longer receives updates and there was concern that it wouldn’t be supported in the new forum engine, did that get resolved?
Ah, an iMac. That would be macOS rather than iOS, correct? At any rate, from what I understand that shouldn’t be an issue because even if Safari can’t be updated anymore in the case of macOS you can install a modern third-party browser like Firefox.
The bigger problem would be an old iOS mobile device that no longer gets updates; in that case even installing a third-party browser would make no difference because all browsers for iOS use the Safari (Webkit) engine. Fortunately Apple supports their devices for a fairly long time, but it’s still likely that some devices will outlast Apple’s software lifecycle.
I did the password reset and logged in fine.
My PM’s seem to be imported okay.
A brief scroll through some randomly selected topics looks fine too.
Other than that not much time to look around today.
Thanks a lot Don, just whenever you have more time let me know if you run across anything. The random perusal method is good for finding little issues.
Actually it doesn’t exist. Discourse does have quite a few ways to help you keep track of what you have and haven’t read already, such as this last visit marker line:
There’s also an indicator of new activity in posts you’ve already read. Also a New button will appear when there are new threads, and those can be dismissed:
