Sounds like a user issue, rather than a system issue. Let me get to my desktop to confirm (I like imgur; but dislike the app...so, since they shut down their mobile support, I can't/won't use imgur on my phone)

The code itself looks like this:
Code: 
[img]https://i.imgur.com/52gmVIw.jpg[/img]
Copy the one that looks like that from the hosting site. People don't want to follow links...links suck.
 
Okay, now I'm curious...You were doing just fine with imgur yesterday, from the look of the ads you posted.
Did you click the [] and shut off the code thingie?
*edited* Nope - I just shut mine off, and could still post images the same way

For some reason I had the same problem a week ago. I pressed on the 3 vertical dots next to the counter clockwise icon. Then pressed the [ ] icon and it was back to normal.

Thank you. I did that and it work.

Update:
I click on the icon and it when back to normal, but it only shows the link and not the picture.

Update:
Problem fixed. Instead of using the icon that looks like a chain, you have to click at the 3 vertical dots and use the icon that looks like a picture.

Or, you can skip that step by copy/pasting the BB Code directly into the post. Imgur provides it to make things easy... Even says (in parentheses) that it's the one to use for forums. Admittedly, I don't know how to access that code in the app (because I disliked the app and uninstalled it almost immediately); but I managed to find it on my phone before they stopped supporting mobile access, and I'm leaning right on the wall of computer illiteracy.
Of course, that's just the approach that I found fastest/easiest - the other way works; and if you find it faster/easier for you, run with it :thumbsup:
