ohw..  i see here that there should be a ‘upload image’ button..

in the admin panel i found: If you are allowing signature images (zero = not limited):

where do I allow this?

 

I set the width and height, but thats not it..

This is a permission you need to grant your users – so you will find the setting needs turning on in the permissions panels for those user groups you wish to allow this for.

Is it under permissions or under usergroups?

It is a permission added when you install and activate the ‘File Uploader’ SP plugin. Sorry – I assumed you had this active. It will be needed.

using the editor then surely if you just use an ‘enter’ from the keyboard between the text and the image then it should do the trick… No?

No..  but..  the editor is plain.. no options, no bbcode..

Oh – if you are using the plain text editor then you should wrap the text in paragraph tags isolated from the image tags.

for posts i use the editor with BB code, how do i change the editor for the signaturefield?

The editor you select in your SP profile (from the editor plugins active) will be the editor used for all operations. So if you have the bbCode editor selected for posts then this will be the editor used elsewhere – for signatures and PMs etc.

Apologies – you are right. I remember now that we do need to use the plain text editor there. It is not the bbCode editor just a plain textarea. I also see there are some oddities there with using tags like ‘br’ for example.

Try something like this – it works for me… based on my simple signature…

<div style="color: #aaaaaa">YELLOW SWORDFISH</div>
<div><img src="/wp-content/sp-resources/forum-image-uploads/smallfish.gif" alt="" width="40" height="48" /></div>

Now when I updated the signature it looked wrong in that it changed the ending ‘divs’ to ‘codes’ but it actually does display and format it correctly.

I will open a ticket to get this looked at. Seems like the WP display filters are perhaps messing with it which might mean they have changed something.
