OK, I'm not exactly sure what this is called, but I have a couple of users that have placed links in their signatures to their website which pulls an image into their signature. (Does that make sense?) The image is basically an advertisement. How can I stop this? I don't have "Allow HTML?" checked for any of my forums which is what I thought would have governed this ability?
Can anyone tell me if there is something else I need to be checking or unchecking?
As always thanks for any thoughts you can share! Winter

Sounds like "Allow Images in Signatures": CP -> Master Settings -> Feature Settings -> General Tab -> Allow [img] tag in signatures?

I thought that might be the place to look, but I have unchecked it also. It still did not correct the problem...I wonder if it only checks when someone initially sets up or modifies their signature?

Could you paste EXACTLY what is set as the users signatures? Do this through the member management page and post here using the [code] tags so nothing gets parsed.

Also, was this an import from a previous product?

I think the fact that it was already set as his signature before I unchecked the option may be the problem. I went in and changed his signature (deleted just the "http" from what is above, saved it, then pasted the "http" back and saved it again) and now the image no longer shows...just the words "[image]http://www.firstgiving.com/dmcrun..." And no, this was not an import from a previous product. Although I upgraded my board from a Classic board, these are a couple of new users since that timeframe.

I'm wondering if the [img] tag block isn't blocking the [image] tag... You could just nuke that block from the offending users and then if they can add it back you'll know for certain. BTW, if you upgraded from classic, it is an import ... It could be that they had the sig in classic and the import just carried it over.

Since the signature is only checked/parsed when it's edited or changed, disabling the image tag won't have an affect on those that already have an image in their signature.
Not too sure if there is an easy way around that, since to have it retroactive it would need to check everyone's signature in the database which would be a pretty long query/update on a site with a substantial number of users.
