Hi admin team.
Some of us in the 'pits' are having issues not being able to see images posted by one user Fab. The thread I've noticed most is in the current F1 season, as Fab has been posting there a lot recently. Some other users have no problems at all whereas some of us simply see blank posts. One such post that I some see nothing is https://www.fordforums.com.au/showpo...&postcount=153 I'm running on Android (web portal, not the Taptalk app) via Firefox (latest version). I can't say I've seen this issue before, but it's been occurring since the beginning of Feb for sure with just Fab's F1 launch pics posts. One final note, if I quote his posts, I can use that quote link to see the image from it's source, but not in the post window... Hopely that makes sense.

No real idea - I can see the image fine and there doesn't look to be anything wrong with the URL for the image but I'll do some testing with other browsers and see what I can find.

it's definitely browser related
I can't see the image on Firefox, but can on Chrome the alt tag is set to blank (I assume that's by default?) so that means that if your browser can't display the image correctly, you get nothing There have always been issues like this with firefox. Standard advice is to "reinstall and reset to default" and sometimes that works. I'm no expert, but I believe it has something to do with the way the "image" is configured, combined with Firefox's security/privacy features. Firefox has a strong stance against spying, whereas that is the entire reason for Chrome's existence! The issue is with images like that one, that are not simply inserted as an image. Rather they use a content server. (This allows the use of all sorts of permissions, tracking, etc, etc) ie rather than simply being "....jpg" it is "....jpg? blah blah blah" Now if you put the whole URL directly into Firefox, that's fine, and it will work. However when you insert the URL into another site like AFF, firefox reads that as a "third party tracker" or similar and blocks it. You can usually fix this by dialling back Firefox's tracking security (if that's what you want) Setting Tracking Protection back to Standard, should do it, but if not you'll need to select custom and allow trackers and possibly cross-site cookies. Hope that helps Last edited by Crazy Dazz; 22-02-2022 at 03:39 PM. |

I’m on an older iPad running Firefox and I don’t have any trouble, unless Russ as fixed the issue.

I think I'll just live with not seeing some pics. Thanks for looking into it and the response!
