Hi there,

there is some issues with linking to bing images in wpforo, see this: 

 

It seems to be an issue on how wpforo handles links and tries to create thumbnails. Any plans to fix this? Or any workaround I can use for the moment?

Hi @lomex,

Press on the image in Bing it will open the image with shorter URL, use that URL, and it will work fine

Hi @Chris

Thank you. Are there any plans on fixing this inside of WPForo? I don't want to explain this to every single of my users.

 

Cheers

@lomex,

The long URL in Bing that's not the IMG URL, it's Bing's page URL, that's why it doesn't work.
