How can I add an image to a post? Help says something about an embedly plugin but not useful information about how to use it.

thanks

It needs to be an image that is already on the web, so if you want to upload something you will have to upload it to an image service like Imgur.

Tap on the add image icon, which is the picture frame with the plus on it (to the right of the add e-mail button).  Paste the URL where it says URL.  Optionally, scale the image (if it is a high res image, it will be too large for the width of the message and will be cropped).  Click “insert”.

Do we have the plugins that support this?
https://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?t=2650375
and/or
https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/exten...pic/229501
(Including an excel url)

It would seem that taking a comma-separated values (csv) or tab-separated values (tsv) region would be easy to modify into a phpBB table.
I do that with emacs macros when I need to. It would be easy with any string editor.

I'm unable to figure out how to  add an attachment.  I'm trying to add a file named IMG_4188a.jpg of size 671KB.

I click Browse and choose a file (its name  is shown).  (If I Post Reply now, it isn't attached.)
I click Add Atachment, and the filename goes away, but I see nothing added. (If I Post Reply now, it isn't attached.)
I click Browse and choose a file (its name  is shown).  (If I Post Reply now, it isn't attached.)
[If I click on Preview Post, the filename goes away.)

What am I doing wrong?  (OSX, both Firefox  &  Safari)

The attachment system was broken for a very long time, then was turned off. After the move to the new host and software refresh, I've tried turning it back on, and it's working now.

The board is using MyBB, not phpBB. Maybe you are asking if there are MyBB plugins that do the equivalent of what those phpBB forum posts are talking about, like an excel tag? I haven't searched extensively, but I didn't see any. I did just fix the plugin we have that implements the basic bbcode syntax described at https://www.bbcode.org/making-a-table-with-bbcode.php

MyBB has a way to extend its bbcode implementation using regexes. I would hesitate to try to implement translating csv into html using regexes, though.
