I like the new version of the Advanced Attachments plugin a lot, thanks for the added functionality! It really helps with the usability of the forum for my (very inexperienced) users. Only one thing is a bit weird: copy/paste a photo from another website results in two versions of the photo in the post, one full version and one thumbnail (clickable). See screenshot:

This does not happen with other methods of adding photos. Why is this and how can it be resolved? I would like to offer this as a way to add a photo to a post for my users but this is a bit confusing.

Hi @timo-roosendaal,

I've just asked our developers about the issue and currently, I'm waiting for the response from them. I'll update the topic asap.

Hi @timo-roosendaal,

The first image is coming with the TinyMCE editor, the second one is coming from the Advanced Attachments add-on, that caused the issue. 

I would like to offer this as a way to add a photo to a post for my users but this is a bit confusing.

The developers working to find some solution for that.

For now please don't use this way to add a photo.

We'll update the topic once we have some news about it.

OK, thanks for sorting this out. I will leave this option out of the instructions for my users for now.
