Chicken,

Is there any way to change/format/etc... my COVID original post that I update daily to continue showing the graphics? The board is just displaying links to the graphs now.

I THINK you will have to re-do the images

that feature that converts images to links saves a ton of bandwidth...

my answer is not official; but I doubt they can turn it off for one thread only

have you tried re-doing those images in an edit?

if that does not work; then it probably cannot be done

Yea, I refresh the links every time I do an update.

Totally understand the need for bandwidth saving...

then the system is probably set to auto convert the images based on the date a post was made...

do you operate a website?

you could post the images on a page and just link that to save space...

The data table in each of my posts is an image hosted on Smugmug, I update the link to the new image link every time I do an update and those aren't showing either.

I suspect the algorithm is based on the original post date.

The graphs are all links to a google doc with published charts.

One alternative is to create a new thread and link to the old thread

I did not think it could be done; my bad for not having enough faith in CC...

so - any chance you could do the same for this thread? the 2020 meme war?

I mean, I know I don't warrant a sticky; but that thread seems to be doing pretty good on page views...

1st 2 pages should convert to links tomorrow...
