[CLOSED FIXRELEASED] Local URLs will never onebox
-
Probably already reported, since editor bugs are never resolved after reporting, but...
If I see a neat image uploaded, I can't put it in my post directly. (E.g. by drag&drop / upload / copying image link).
Instead, I have to download it to my computer first.Example, the below should be an image instead of a link:

Seconded. You have to do it as an img tag; the image will not one-box.

Right click, Copy Image.
New post, Paste.
Which browser?
-
Whoops - I was doing Copy Image Location.
Copy Image indeed works.
(Corrected initial post.)Basically anything that causes the raw URL to be placed in the edit box doesn't work.
(But yeah - the workarounds suggested by you all are much better than mine)

I think it's a specific override for this site; that second image is a URL copypasta from my personal hosting.
You can work round it with BBCode:

This is a bug.

ACKED CONFIRMED
Onebox not embedding locally uploaded media files
Hi all, One of the uses of my Discourse will be a video “library” where I want to allow moderators to post video tutorials to help users. I enabled the “Enable embedding of swf and flv (Adobe Flash) links in oneboxes…” option under /admin/site_settings/category/onebox, and then added a new topic...

If it's an image, you can wrap it in
<img src="">, if it's a video, I'm not sure there's any workaround?
