In wpForo, the easiest way to display remote images directly in posts is by using standard HTML syntax. You can also paste an image's URL directly into the text editor, which the system will automatically parse and embed. [1, 2, 3]
Embedding Remote Images via URL
Embedding Remote Images using HTML
If auto-embedding fails or you want precise control over the image dimensions, you can use basic HTML in the rich-text or source-code editor: [1]
html
<img src="https://example.com" alt="Description of image">
Use code with caution.

This is a broken link :
[url= https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55339388328_d3a7791949_b.jp g" target="_blank"> https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55339388328_d3a7791949_b.jp g"/> [/img][/url]
If you remove the [img][url] tags, the link does not resolve. You should not need to add any [img] or [url] tags.
To test if you are correctly linking to a remote image, copy-paste the link into a new browser window to verify it is correct. If it does not resolve in a new browser window, it will not resolve in the forum post.
This is not a forum issue.
