Photobucket fix

[hybrid]

Yes, it will only match *.jpg[/IMG] and edit it.

*.jpg~original[/IMG] will not match, so it will not be modified.

Brilliant, you guy's are worth everything you are paid.
and probably a bit more.

Bloody brilliant. Thanks hybrid and we hope it stays fixed ........

By the way - once this "fix" filters around the interwebs, photobuckets traffic will start to increase again and they may shut this down.

How does it work; if the post is visible does that count as traffic?

I thought it would be if someone clicks on the photo.

As long as it's a photobucket link right?

You may also want to do jpeg[/IMG]

If you see the image, it's been pulled by your browser from photobucket.

And yes, only photobucket links are modified.
Have you seen photobucket use jpeg extension? I would have thought their system would produce the same file names every time.

Have you seen photobucket use jpeg extension?

Yes, luckily it's fresh in my memory after changing my links.

OK I will search the database and see how many we have. Might be easier for me to do them manually if there's not many.

[StephenSLR]

Any ideas on why this fix works? Could it be something photobucket implemented for those with paid accounts?

Who knows... might have always been there. Might have been a safety thing they did when they made the big change.
Might have been quietly put in to stop some complaints.


jpeg should also be fixed now.

Awesome thanks hybrid and stephenSLR that worked on my build thread. Think I'll back it up now.
