G'mornin Everyone..

Where is the toggle to turn on Image importing to forum posts created from a new or updated blog post? Mine were importing in V4 but quit when i upgraded to V5.

Also on this support site, where it the toggle to enable use on an alias name? I really don't want my real name getting indexed by search.

I am really impressed with this product!

Thanks wink

Really? Oh dear. I was not aware that there were any changes in that regard. I will have to investigate I am afraid so I will open a ticket to get it looked into.

Change the display name in your SP profile from the button at the top.

Any idea when a fix for the image import will be rolled out?

All being well I can take a look at it over the next couple of days. Best I can say until I look into it.

I am unable to replicate your problem with images. My forum topics inherit the images as they should. Can you provide more details?

I don't know. It's a fresh install of WordPress and Simple Press 5.x. It never imported images from day one. It does import video, but probably because i use short code (hanna code insert) to embed video.

And my other site that was upgraded from 4.X to 5.X is not importing images either. This post i did recently didn't even import the thumbnail image. http://www.docsplace.org/forum.....on-martin/

I have no idea why this feature is not working, and figured it was a toggle somewhere in the SP config.

Ok that helped. The problem is the caption.
Go to the forum admin > options > content settings and either turn on all use of shortcodes (i.e, turn OFF the filter) - or - add the word 'caption' to the list of allowed shortcodes. Just the word - no quotes.
