A user asked me if there’s an option to not load images automatically.  Is this possible?  I do not see this as an option.

Hey Alex,

It depends what we’re talking about. If you are asking if there is a way to hide attachments until opened, you can do this by un-checking the first option box that says ‘Auto insert images into post content’ in Forum > Components > File Uploads. This will just give you the file name in a post as an attachment that can be opened.

If I am wrong, can you be more specific?

It’s for the user who does not want images to load automatically when he is viewing a post.  Basically, he does not want an image to load when he opens a post in case he’s reading something out in public.  It would be an individual option in user’s profiles.

In that case no, I don’t believe there is a way to achieve this, sorry.
