- now back in business

Really? I did that and it still doesn't work for me - at least not in those forums I mentioned.

I even tried the "Delete all board cookies" link

I was a little to fast, but I works here

The Disable BBCode and Disable smilies checkboxes on the Options tab for those posts were checked. I unchecked them and resubmitted the post. Perhaps the profile option wasn't properly migrated? Try going back to the post(s) in question and unchecking these options and also verify the Board preferences > Editing posting defaults has Yes for "Enable BBcodes by default".

There is, but they have to be updated in the database. Same goes for the [gvideo] and [s] tags. I'll run an update once the search rebuild completes.

Also, if I upload a picture, but do not place it inline, shouldn't it show up as an attachment?

I reworked the default attachment dialogs to be more "image centric". For example, the Place inline option inserts an [img] tag instead of an [attachment] tag. This saves a server roundtrip into the database, going directly to the web server to fetch the image. For you programmer types, phpBB V3 uses an indirection to prevent image hotlinking, but I like the convenience of being able to copy/paste image references within the forum. So HB uses all [img] tags and has no need for an [attachment] tag and the server blocks hotlinking in the .htaccess file by returning a 403 'access forbidden' for non-HB referrers.

As a consequence, you are required to insert an [img] tag within your post. I suppose that I could add code to do it for you (e.g., if you attached an image but forgot), but typically posters add captions / follow-on comments anyway.

Sorry, but I can't find these checkboxes under the Options tab?
I only see the "Do not automatically parse URLs" and "Notify me when a reply is posted" options!

The "Editing posting defaults" were migrated the right way, but .....

Here's an image that's 800x600:


This one is 600x400:



Neither should be clipped... but the upper one is. Will investigate.

Found the problem... sort of. Somewhere along the line integrating the new layout, the forum content area got smaller. For now, I've set the scroll area threshold lower to 700 and left the max image size at 800. Thanks for the catch.

Minor suggestion: if there's room for Previous/Next buttons at the top of the screen (near the page numbers), please add them. They're available at the bottom of the screen, but it would be a nice convenience feature to have them handy at the top as well, since they get used so often. (Apologies if this has already been suggested in a different thread.)

Fixed... for unknown reasons, the permissions for BBcode/img/smilies was not carries across to forums that are reply-only. BBcodes et al should be work for you now in all forums. Thanks for the report.
