illegal image error when posting

[Jax]

seem to get an error when trying to post a reply quote that has any image in it, if I delete the image I can then post.

[Paul]

Can you give some more info - which post / image etc please?

[A.J]

Morning Paul, I had the same issue a couple of days whilst replying to the following post. (I've had to edit the 'smiley emoticon' from the end of BJ's post as I think it's the emoticon that's causing the problem. when I tried pasting BJ's whole post a minute ago, I recieved the following error message)

 

"You are not allowed to use that image extension on this community."

 

I would be interested as well  if you could set it up AJ.

 

What a glorious day it's been, nothing quite like April, 6am this morning cold and frosty and now very pleasant and warm.

 

Great analysis as always Tams, hoping Easter won't be too bad, really don't want too much rain.

 

Did anyone see the moon rise last night, I was on the M25 in Essex driving towards the QE2 Bridge, it was huge and quite red when it first came up above the horizon.

 

Have a nice afternoon/evening.

That's bizarre, could you quickly test again for me please and just post another post with that quoted, as I just tried and it was ok.

[A.J]

hmm, odd..just made a test post in the SE regional using BJ's original post and there's now no error message

[Paul]

Lol, got to love intermittent bugs which disappear when you try to test them. If you see anything like it again though please shout!

Hi Paul

 

Yes that was the same problem (sorry for lack of detail in my original post, I assumed it was general image related), it was the emoticons that I had to delete from the quoted post to enable me to reply.

I had the same message this morning, trying to put quotes in the reply had to remove a load of text and emoticons

[Methuselah]

I've had it too, when trying to post images...

[Jax]

just had it happen when using the quote feature and had to delete the :winky: smiley in the quote to allow the post

[knocker]

It happened to me yesterday. I posted an image into the post okay. Then decided to edit the message and when it came to repost it came up with you are not allowed to post this type if image. Ergo, couldn't edit.

[Paul]

Thanks for the reports, I think I know what's going wrong and will get a fix in place during the next 24 hours.

[Paul]

Has this stopped happening now?

[Jax]

So far today all has been well, will let you know (as I am sure you would expect) if the problem persists.

[knocker]

It cropped up again just now whilst editing a post. Wasn't even my image!

[Dancerwithwings]

Just happen to me!...... So just out of interest tried to edit without making any changes at all and still got (You are not allowed to use that image extension on this community) ???

[Paul]

Which post was that on?

[Paul]

Don't worry, I found it. I'm hoping it'll be fixed from here on in, but may still occur on posts made before now. 

[Paul]

PS, please don't touch that post now - am going to get Invision to look at it to investigate the cause of this.

[Paul]

I think / hope this is definitely fixed now!

[knocker]

Well it has just popped up again although did allow me to edit.

[knocker]

You are not allowed to use that image extension on this community has cropped up again during editing.

I keep getting this when quoting a post containing images that have already been posted in said post.
