Actually I have 4 questions;
1)How do I set pictures on the entire forum to display as a normal picture instead of displaying as a file format.
2) Is there a way I can display total views of all topics on the forum's statistics panel?
3) How do I make font post font to be set at 12pt by default?
4) How do I remove the panel attached below.
Hi @zazzy,
1) How do I set pictures on the entire forum to display as a normal picture instead of displaying as a file format.
wpForo supports image URL auto-embed:
I'd suggest you read Robert's answer in this support topic:
This support topic also should be helpful, please check it out:

2) Is there a way I can display total views of all topics on the forum's statistics panel?
Please read this support topic:

3)How do I make font post font to be set at 12pt by default?
The option is located in Dashboard > Forums > Settings > Styles admin page.

4) How do I remove the panel attached below.
I don't follow you. Do you mean disabling the whole buttons?
Out of the 4 questions, you answered question number 3 to my satisfaction.
But;
In question 1, what I'm asking is, if one uploads a picture using the "choose file" option, after the post is made, the image doesn't give a full image display, rather is displays as a file attachment.
As an admin, I can embed image from the wp-uploads using the image url but an ordinary subscriber can't do that & I wouldn't want a subscriber to have access to the Wp-uploads.
So I want if a user uploads an image using "choose file" let the image be able to display the image & not wrap it like an attachment.
In question 2, I'm not trying the hide the post views. I'm trying to display all post views as an icon on the statistics boards. Example, say 10 topics have 10 views each, I want to have an icon on the statistics board showing "All time post views = 100"
In question 4, yes I meant to disable the whole buttons & leave just the basic ones with bold, italics & the rest. Just view the image again. The buttons in the image I need them disabled.
For one (1), there is a solution provided here if you did a little search.
But anyways, here it comes ready for you. Add this to your THEME functions.
add_filter('wpforo_content_after', 'wpforo_default_attachment_image_embed', 11);
function wpforo_default_attachment_image_embed($content)
{
if (preg_match_all('|<a class=\"wpforo\-default\-attachment\" href\=\"([^\"\']+)\"[^><]*>.+?<\/a>|is', $content, $data, PREG_SET_ORDER)) {
foreach ($data as $array) {
if (isset($array[1])) {
$file = $array[1];
$e = strtolower(substr(strrchr($file, '.'), 1));
if ($e == 'jpg' || $e == 'jpeg' || $e == 'png' || $e == 'gif') {
$filename = explode('/', $file);
$filename = end($filename);
$html = '<a href="' . esc_url($file) . '" target="_blank"><img class="wpforo-default-image-attachment" src="' . esc_url($file) . '" alt="' . esc_attr($filename) . '" title="' . esc_attr($filename) . '" /></a>';
$content = str_replace($array[0], $html, $content);
}
}
}
}
return $content;
}
Also if you want to have Youtube auto-embed, also add this to your THEME's functions file:
add_filter('wpforo_content_after', 'wpforo_custom_video_embed', 10);
function wpforo_custom_video_embed($content)
{
$paterns = array();
$paterns[] = "/<a[^><]+>\s*[a-zA-Z\/\/:\.]*youtube.com\/watch\?v=([a-zA-Z0-9\-_]+)([a-zA-Z0-9\/\*\-\_\?\&\;\%\=\.]*)/i";
$paterns[] = "/<a[^><]+>\s*[a-zA-Z\/\/:\.]*youtu.be\/([a-zA-Z0-9\-_]+)([a-zA-Z0-9\/\*\-\_\?\&\;\%\=\.]*)/i";
$content = preg_replace($paterns, "<iframe width=\"420\" height=\"280\" src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/$1\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen></iframe>", $content);
return $content;
}
