I want to disable image embedding in Advanced editor

xm1

I just want people to upload images not embed or hotlink them. Basically I want to remove the Image URL input field below the attach image/file dropdown in Advanced Editor.

I looked inside the plugin source and found this:

public function getAllowedEditorActions() {
        static $allowedEditorActions = array(
         ...
         'sep-media' => true, // separator
         'emoji' => true,
         'links' => true,
         'images' => true,
         'uploads' => true,
        ...
        );
        return $allowedEditorActions;
}

But setting 'images' => false didn't do the trick.

if you want to cosmetically remove the option it via css.

.editor-file-image .image-input { display:none !important; }

if you want to prevent them from manually adding links that is another story, you will need to write a plugin to remove img tags from the posts.

you could test this in a plugin not sure if it works can't test. I won't be able to help further on this.

<?php 
$PluginInfo['RemoveImage'] = array(
   'Description' => 'This plugin removes images and placed image tags within posts',
   'Version' => '1.0',
   'MobileFriendly' => TRUE,
);

class RemoveImagePlugin extends Gdn_Plugin {
  public function DiscussionController_AfterCommentFormat_Handler($sender) {
    $this->RemoveImages($sender);
    }

  public function PostController_AfterCommentFormat_Handler($sender) {
   $this->RemoveImages($sender);
    }

// get rid of images but keep emoji classed images,
private function RemoveImages($sender) {
    $body = $sender->EventArguments['Object']->FormatBody;
    $emojiA = '<img class="emoji';
    $emojiB = '<zmg class="emoji';
    $newbody = preg_replace("#\\" . $emojiA . "#si" ,$emojiB , $body);
    $pattern = '#\<img.*?\>#si';
    $newbody = preg_replace( $pattern, "", $newbody); 
    $newbody = preg_replace("#\\" . $emojiB . "#si",$emojiA , $newbody);
    $sender->EventArguments['Object']->FormatBody = $newbody;
}

}

feel free to change case and indentation.

if it doesn't work for you someone else may have a solution.

test (same emoji twice above).

when this emoji is first characters on line thinks its a smile:) when its a >:)

resulting in an automatic blockquote and a smiley.

edit:

an emoji bug in 2.2 as well as on this forum

@peregrine I do not want to get ride of images, I just want to prevent users from embedding external images.

I just want to prevent users from embedding external images.

exactly what I provided.

@xm1 sorry, but I think I am wasting my time.

with the above plugin - users can still upload images, as attachments, and inline images are gone except for emojis - solves the problem.

and the css provided - answers your other question.

Did you even try the plugin? to see what it does.

either you don't understand what you want or I don't
