As a normal user on a standard install - you can't. You can allow the HTML <img> tag for HTML postings by adding it to $_CONF['alllow_html'] in config.php, if you want. As an Admin, you can actually upload images to be used in stories. This is explained in the Admin's version of the story editor. bye, Dirk

Hello, I cannot upload images to stories as an admin. The image gets there, is assigned a number, but it does not appear on the story. Am I using the wrong code? I use [image2338686998.gif] Is this the correct syntax? An additional question: can I use html to add images, that is img src and so on? Thanks! Michael

The correct syntax is [image1] for the first image, [image2] for the second, etc. You don't need to know the name that Geeklog assigns to the actual image files. And, yes, you can use <img> - if you add that to the list of allowable HTML tags (in config.php). bye, Dirk

What is the syntax to add img to the 'admin_html' section.

I am brand new to this and I have just installed geeklog. I am trying to get the basics down so I can customize it for my parents website. I was hoping to give them the ability to type some text and attach images to the text. When I try it I get the same result as described here. I use the geeklog story editor and browse to my local picture, include the "[image1_left] in the body text but the result is a broken image. Sizing is not an issue I have tried multiple sizes. If I ftp to the /images/articles directory there is nothing there. Any help is greatly apprecieated.

Thanks

The syntax you're using is correct (assuming you're using the English language file - some of the translations also translated the word "image" ...).

Switch on the debugging for the image upload in config.php:

$_CONF['debug_image_upload'] = true;

Then see (after your next attempt) if the contents of Geeklog's error.log help you track down the problem.

bye, Dirk

My syntax question was about how to properly add the "img" tag in the config.php file. (I am currently using notepad and the config.php file is a monster to deal with. A side recomendation on a good windows text editor would be nice.)

Text Formatted Code
$_CONF['admin_html'] = array (
    'p'     => array('class' => 1, 'id' => 1, 'align' => 1,<i> <b>'img' => 1),</b></i>
    'div'   => array('class' => 1, 'id' => 1),
    'span'  => array('class' => 1, 'id' => 1),
    'table' => array('class' => 1, 'id' => 1, 'width' => 1, 'border' => 1,
                     'cellspacing' => 1, 'cellpadding' => 1),
    'tr'    => array('class' => 1, 'id' => 1, 'align' => 1, 'valign' => 1),
    'th'    => array('class' => 1, 'id' => 1, 'align' => 1, 'valign' => 1,
                     'colspan' => 1, 'rowspan' => 1),
    'td'    => array('class' => 1, 'id' => 1, 'align' => 1, 'valign' => 1,
                     'colspan' => 1, 'rowspan' => 1)
)
 


The bold italics is what I added.

Any other suggestions. I am going to try the other now.

Thanks
