[nodebb-plugin-imgur] Imgur Plugin

I think they used to delete if the image was not accessed at least once every six months. But they changed it so they never delete an image unless requested.
Can confirm. Imgur indeed doesn't delete unless requested. The screenshots I made and uploaded by ShareX from 3 months ago are still able to be seen.

This is a crazy contingency question; I doubt it'd ever happen but what if Imgur closed down and we were told to download our images from their server, could we dump them all into a folder on our own server and somehow get them to display?
-
@henrywright that is why I host images on my server. The other reason is that I can put the images through some software to make them smaller in kilobytes.
-
@henrywright How many images do you host? 20 GB would be enough for some years for a small forum.
-
I'm surprised DO doesn't have a feature to pay for more disk space separate from upgrading to the next tier. It's a little crazy actually.
-
I'm pretty sure if you pay for the next tier. Your storage doesn't change. Thought it was just ram. Guess I've never really looked. A CDN is definitely a better option than self hosting. Keeps the requests to your VPS down.
Would be great if images went through compressor.io before being uploaded to imgur. Wouldn't be so good with high quality images. Guesa you could just do it with the jpgs. Since they're already compressed.

Not in every case. I have an overpowered server with a SSD and my visitors are from smaller country, which keeps the user-server distance small. I also have more control over the images, but imgur is really good and I would take if I hadn't such a server.

That is a very good idea, I like tinypng.com though

@linan2332 Did you follow the steps in the plugins setup page in ACP?
-
Yes, i follow the steps in https://github.com/barisusakli/nodebb-plugin-imgur
register a new user, authorize the application with secret and client id. Everything proceed with no errorIt seems like there are some people also not able to fix it. However I saw in this post it is being solved.
-
@linan2332 after you entered the client id and secret in the plugin ACP page and clicked enter..... it takes you to imgur website to authorize... after you authorize it... did it return back to the same ACP plugin page?
-
@linan2332 well then I have no idea what else to do... works fine for me in two separate installations.
