Enhancement request - Linking to photos in email notifications

[Martyn K]

Like many I subscribe to quite a few posts and get email notification messages that look like this:

<snip>

Last nights shed time got the ailerons carefully cut & sawed free. I could really have used a deeper blade on the razor saw to get through the aileron stock at the root - one to add to my tools wishlist. I then put enough bevel on the aileron leading edge to get just over 1/2" throw either direction.>>

{Broken link to image}

The reason why this happens is that because the site has been configured with 'relative' paths - back to the root of the site so the www.modelflying.co.uk suffix in the link is missing. This works fine when using the website locally, but is useless when viewing from an email.

Is it possible to get the site reconfigured so that it uses absolute paths for images - or at least uses absolute paths within email notifications? The image path (in this case with spaces added so it doesn't break anything for this example) would then be

http ://www.modelflying.co.uk.sites /3/images/member_albums/150203/734343.jpg

It would make a lot of people much a happier and be a much better user experience..

Thanks

I agree, I look at my emails on my phone and would like to see the pics there.

Good idea Martyn.
