Images in Articles

[redeye]

There are couple posts regarding this but I'm still a little puzzled. 

I'm sure that in the previous version I could upload an image whilst creating an article and then insert the image.
Have things changed with .86 so that images have to be ftp'd to a directory and then selected for insertion?

You can both atache images to your article, just as you do in the forum posts.
And you can upload images to a folder and then link it in your article.

When I open a new article the "image" button shows a browse button, but that only allows you to select from a URL, not from your PC.
Or am I missing something?

"browwe" should look in your harddisk...doesn't it do that?

[redeye]

No, just goes to a folder on my server.

hm, strange. I will need to check this out.

Is there anything I can check from this end?

ah, I am really sorry..I was in fact looking at the new editor on my test-site with upload capability... The current in v0.8.6 do not have upload options. It was meant to be, but other things took presedence then.

Is there a way I can config which directory it looks in?

when I created a new article it seemed to add the image but would not do so after the article was saved. I did not try this again before posting this reply.

I wonder if people could divulge[tell ] what they use the upload manager for so some, like me,could make better use of it.
