    Actually you don't need to go to advanced to upload an image. You have to upload it from your computer to be able to format it later. You cannot upload the image from a foreign URL. I think that might be the problem.

    I get the feeling that you are intentionally not looking at the issue i pointed out.

    I don't want to upload images. i want formatting toolbar in "go advanced" / "post topic"

    Let me visualize: The formatting toolbar is MISSING THERE:

    I think I understand what the problem is. Check out this thread where Christina explains how to set your editor preference. The screenshot helps too btw.

    Unfortunately we were not able to batch set this option for each exiting member when we converted all the accounts over to the new site. However once you set it to the WYSIWYG Editor you'll have your formatting options and the ability to upload images and post YouTube videos and the like.

    This is not to judge you, but it's something I've learned along the way and feel I need to share:
    I find that of about half the time I accuse people when I think they are wrong, they usually are not. This is mostly the case when I only see half the picture. Always double check. And if you're not 100% sure, only tell what you see or what you think is the case. Never tell people they are wrong, because in the end it makes you look bad, when they aren't.

    This is a pretty stupid change on vbulletin's part. i have not yet seen a vbulletin ever configuired in such a manner.

    Traveler: all i wanted was a solution, to me it looked like a issue with the forum theme, so i reported this as i saw it. I see nothing unusual / wrong with that.

    This issue should only affect those users imported from the existing forum database. As WILL pointed out, at the time, I couldn't find a quick way of fixing it for everyone other than post instructions as to how to select the required editor, hence nothing has been done about it. I'm sure I can fix it for everyone, but I've been really busy with work and studies and so minor issues like that have taken a back seat.
