What is the callback url set in the imgur app settings?

phenomlab

Register an imgur app here, make sure you fill in the callback URL properly. It should be http://yourforum.com/admin/plugins/imgur adjust based on your forum url.

Once you register you will get a client ID and secret. Enter these values below.

Optionally, create an album for your forum on imgur and put its album ID below. You can find the ID by going to the album URL and taking the characters after the /a. Ex. for http://imgur.com/a/abcdef, the ID is abcdef

After entering the values click Save and then Authorize, you will be redirected to imgur to allow access to your app.

Once you allow access you will be redirected back to nodebb.

Obviously, I'm using https but it also doesn't work if you use http

I tried it on this forum and it redirected properly, the callback url was set to this

@baris Very strange. Doesn't work for me the URL is malformed.

phenomlab

@baris resolved the malformed URL issue - not sure why that happened, but the plugin still doesn't seem to work for me in the sense that the image is never rendered, just the ALT tag, but when you click the link it takes you to the actual image.

The imgur plugin uploads images to imgur and that's it. You should see a link to the image on imgur after you upload something.

phenomlab

@baris Yes, but the sad part is that I don't

WAIT....

The imgur plugin uploads images to imgur and that's it

What if the image already exists, and you want to simply display it ??

<baris>

You can just link to images on imgur

Hello @baris

I have this error since yesterday when I want to upload image with the WYSIWYG.

imgur is temporarily over capacity. Please try again later

phenomlab

@DownPW yep, getting complaints myself about this on sudonix but I don't think it's anything to do with NodeBB, but gave me an excuse to remove this plugin as I host locally anyway.

@phenomlab @baris

I can upload on imgur with my account without error. I think the problem is maybe with the plugin but I could be wrong, I'm not a dev

Or maybe a blacklisted IP (hetzner) by imgur ?

Perhaps, but that's only something that Imgur themselves could confirm.

DownPW

I should look at the nodebb logs when I Have the error to see if I have more information

I'm not sure it is a blaclisted IP, another forum which use NodeBB too and hosted by OVH have the same problem.
Another forum, hosted by Online haven't it, but it use an old version of NodeBB.

DownPW

After verification, no error in nodebb log @baris

imgur is temporarily over capacity. Please try again later is an issue on imgurs end. The plugin just sends the image and if it errors shows it in the composer.
