Need to add a feature to upload images to imgur

Hello, @abdulazizsobh.

I’m not sure if I understood correctly. If you want your images on Imgur, why are you uploading them to the media library? Aren’t the efforts the same?

Let me make it clearer instead of taking a paid link and uploading the images to it manually
You add a button to upload the images to Imgur and use them as an image

This addition is present in another script, but this is the same idea that I am talking about:
https://github.com/demyxco/elgg

I want to use Imgur as a host for images, and adding images is easy instead of taking the link each time and pasting it. The api is linked, and the images are uploaded directly and used

I hope you understand what I mean and add it
Also, I hope it is free
my regards

Do you wait for this feature in the next updates?

Hi, @abdulazizsobh

It appears that you are seeking a free alternative to the FIFU Cloud.

Perhaps it could be considered for implementation in the future, but not at present. Currently, we need to monetize the project to ensure its sustainability.

Anyway, I’ll keep this topic open. Perhaps someone else could provide us with a better idea for monetizing the project, allowing us to offer more free features.

Please put this idea on the updated map
This is also implied to see you saying that you are working to provide the use of data.
Please do not forget this idea and add it soon to this add-on, this will make it really cool.
Greetings and wait for this update, which will have such a feature

Also, please do not associate this idea with making money, because this means that this idea can remain buried forever
I am telling you this will not affect your profitable program, because all you will do is facilitate the uploading of images instead of copying the link every time to use it. That’s all.

I’m back again, I hope I’m not bothering you

I found a very easy solution to add such a feature and it will not take any effort from you
I found a library that performs this function, it has everything you have to add to the add-on
I really really hope you add it and I will be very, very, very grateful to you

see this: https://github.com/carry0987/Imgur-Upload

Don’t worry, @abdulazizsobh.

So you have found a magic add-on that should be added to the plugin and it will make everything you need. Okay. Let’s give it a shot.

it has everything you have to add to the add-on

Where exactly?

are you upset
Indeed, I was using another script, and an existing addition was based on this library. It added within the editor the ability to add an image to the subject and review it.
As for where it should be placed, surely you are the best person who knows how to add this

You can see this addition here:

Not upset at all, @abdulazizsobh.

To be honest I don’t know. I can’t see FIFU and that working together without a lot of code. Please explain how to make the integration “easy” and “without any effort”.

Dear, I am not a professional programmer
But let me suggest something. Do you think that you should analyze these plugins and you will see the way they are included in the search editor? The difference is that this editor is not WordPress.

https://elgg.org/plugins/2033439

Look, you did a great job with this plugin, and I’m grateful to you, but I really need a feature like this to exist.
And I hope you know very well that this add-on will not affect your cloud service, because what your add-on actually offers is pulling images from external links, and all I ask is to facilitate this by adding a button to upload images directly instead of doing this manually
It is strange to see a script that is not famous doing such a feature and WordPress does not have it, so I invite you to think of this feature as a good update for your addition

Maybe we can have a feature like that in the future. For now, we need to implement the most common requests.

I also see some problems with the Imgur: https://apidocs.imgur.com/

1. Limited to 12,500 uploads a day (we have 100,000+ users)
2. App registration (each user would have to register an app)
3. No commercial usage
4. We used to have an integration with Imgur for Featured Videos, but they blocked video embedding. Maybe they intend to do that with images as well. Who knows?

Solving all these problems is simpler than you imagine, and it is to make each member add his own API code
You may add the feature, but the user will add an imuger

Also, this feature is very important, and if you vote to add it, you will find many saying yes.

You may check this addition and you will find that the topic is very easy. I opened their code, it did not exceed some stores, so I do not need to add a large code

Hello, @abdulazizsobh.

You should understand that you are asking for a very complex new feature that will allow you to save 1 or 2 clicks. How can we prioritize that? So unfortunately it has a very low priority in our task list.

For now you could upload an image to imgur using the library you have found. Then just paste the image address into the FIFU field.
