I recently updated to the latest forum system and discovered a great new feature: the addition of the [grid] code. When I drag multiple photos into the text editor, the [grid] code is automatically filled in. This feature was not available before. Previously, displaying multiple photos in a post would make the post unusually long, greatly affecting the visual experience. After discovering the new [grid] code, I found that it allows 2-3 photos to be displayed in a row, appropriately reducing the display size, with the option to enlarge the photos when clicked. This has greatly improved the visual appeal of the forum. However, starting yesterday, I noticed that the [grid] code no longer auto-fills when I edit posts. I would like to know if there is a settings issue causing this problem.

Auto gridding is still in place. You need to upload 3 images or more at once for the automatic tag to apply. If you just upload 1 image at time you will not get an auto grid. Possible user setting to disable this is being tracker here: Turning off auto-grid-images?

Yes, this happens if you upload 1 at a time, select all the images and upload them at the same time to get a grid

I apologize for the misunderstanding due to my lack of explanation. As shown in the image, when I drag 5 photos into the text editor at the same time, the [grid] code does not automatically appear.

I see can you try the upload button? @keegan / @lindsey there may be an edge case here

Hmm, that’s odd, yes there may be an edge-case. FWIW I tried testing a few scenarios with: uploading 5 images using the upload button uploading 5 images by dragging in 5 photos at the same time uploading 5 images dragging and upload button on edit post uploading images on throttled connection and auto [grid] is working here on Meta.

What browser are you using? Can you repro here? If you switch to an alternative browser does it also happen?

I am now confident that it may not be an issue with the forum system, but I am still very curious about why this is happening. I have conducted the following tests: I opened multiple browsers and found that I was unable to automatically populate the grid code. Using my regular Google Chrome browser, I made posts and discovered that one could automatically populate the grid code while another could not. Since both are Google Chrome browsers with different Google accounts, I conducted a third test. Under the same Google account, I switched between forum accounts to make posts. I confirmed that if I use a forum administrator account, the grid code cannot be invoked. However, if I use any other account, the grid code can be automatically populated. To confirm whether this phenomenon was caused by browser caching, I logged out of the forum administrator account. In another Google account that could invoke the grid code, I logged out and switched to the forum administrator account. After switching, the grid code could not be invoked again in the forum that previously allowed it.

Has anyone experienced a similar issue? I can confirm that only my admin account is encountering this problem. It seems that some settings are causing this issue. How can I adjust the settings to restore the [grid] code?

A bit of a late contribution, but saw this while browsing some Related Topics and thought it may be connected: :slight_smile: [صورة] Automatic images grid not working when locale is not set to English Bug Been trying to test this feature on our forum. I tick the box “Automatically wraps images in [grid] tags when 3 or more images are uploaded in the composer.” in Experimental, and nothing happens. Do I need to reboot the server? I’m on 3.5 beta8, so up to date. Am I missing something? Thanks! Does the auto-grid function for you now that the locale issue has been fixed?
