So many of us have been asking for this for a long time now and I am bringing it up again to show important is it. I request that we be able to embed images/gifs (along with social media posts!) just by copying and pasting and not have to go through trouble by pasting into the HTML. As much as I understand that we should not be lazy and can just upload the image, this makes Wix forum not as up to date and convenient as other forums out there and gives users a disadvantage in trying to communicate quicker. It is a bum that we can not just copy and paste photos/gifs/social media posts quickly and I really wish you guys would consider this extremely soon. This is a feature that we should already have by now.
Also please allow this and the HTML on mobile as well!
This is a must for the forum
Hi, to better understand what you are suggesting, could you give an example of such functionality. Maybe you know of another app that works the way you want?
@Vytenis Butkevičius, Here is an example.
You make a screenshot and then instead of saving as a file and then inserting that file in the post - you just paste the screenshot in the post directly. If you are familiar with Wix Answers, creating knowledge base article is using this functionality.
Another example. You copy a photo from social network (by using rightclick and Copy image option) and/or make part of the screen with Snipping Tool. Then you paste it directly in the forum post. Currently, you need to save the copied image in file in some folder. Then go in the post, insert the file by searching in the folders to find it.
Creating rich posts should be easy and straight forward. Hope it is clear now.
@venko gligorov It makes sense. We'll look into this.
@Vytenis Butkevičius And this would also apply to Social Media posts (e.g. Twitter) and GIFs as well.
Please take this into consideration as it feels like this request often gets dismissed.
You make a screenshot after which as opposed to saving as a file and then putting that report inside the post - you just paste the screenshot in the put up without delay for home website. If you are acquainted with Wix Answers, creating expertise base article is the use of this capability.
Yep, this is a must!
Embed image links too please. Like Imgur direct links or url's ending in png, jpg, gif, etc
Yes exactly!! This is far due now
