Issues with pictures and Edit

Random or Off Topic
1

Hi,

I’ve posted quite a lot of pictures in my machine’s presentation thread (here: https://v1engineering.com/forum/topic/my-mpcnc-made-in-china/ )

It seems like they all disappeared, for some reason. I don’t really know why since I’ve used hostingpics.net, which usually is very reliable and I can see the pictures if I copy their links and load them in another tab. Could someone check if this is a forum issue?

For example, the link of a random image in my original post:
https://img11.hostingpics.net/pics/322928IMG3110.jpg --> it doesn’t work.
Remove the https:// and it works fine.

I wanted to try to edit my original post to figure out if this definitely was a forum issue, but I cannot see the edit button anymore…

Edit goes away after 5 minutes or so.

Hostingpics.net isn’t supporting a secure connection, so the https will not work, it needs to be http instead. I imagine they either let their certificate expire or some technician has accidentally disabled port 443.

Well, this is annoying… :frowning: Could the rule of 5 minute max to edit be removed?
It is sometimes useful to be able to edit your posts, especially if you want to update the first one of a thread to keep the important information visible without having to search for it in all the discussion pages.
