Hi,

images posted by default registered members on forum don't appear on cross-posted comments on Wordpress, but those posted by moderators/admins are visible. Cross-posted images from Wordpress comments to forum post instead always works for everyone.

Any tips? Thank you and kindest regards.

Hi, this is a simple registered user posting on WpForo:

And this is the cross-posted comment on Wordpress:

As you can see, no attached image. Thanks.

Of course. This is a cross-posted post from the forum made by a regular user, without image:

And this is a cross-posted post made by me (admin), with image:

ok  @dexter-deshawn, thank you. 

I understand the issue. The issue doesn't come from wpForo Blog Cross Posting add-on. This comes from WordPress. It doesn't allow regular users to include the image tag in comment content. This restriction doesn't have an effect on the admin role. Wordpress uses the wp_kses() function.

More info here:

Please read this question it should be helpful for you.

Thank you!

Is there a solution for this problem, do you know of? Another comments plugin, maybe?

@dexter-deshawn,

I don't think there is some comment plugin that solves this. Haven't you tried the solution form wordpress.stackexchange.com?

I just added this line at the end of my theme functions.php and now everything works perfectly:

$allowedtags["img"] = array(
"src" => array()
);

Thanks!
