Hello,

Does anyone know when an Inline module, or anything else supporting the display of images in articles or blog posts, will be available for version 6?

Thanks,
-J

i just dealt with this tonight trying to resolve the same thing - though it's raised a couple of new questions.

my site only deals with registered users, so i enabled full html as the default and uploaded the img_filter (and screwed around with default resizing to accommodate the amadou theme) - it was img_filter-6.x-0.3 dropped into the drupal 6 final release (not rc4 or earlier)

it appears to be working fine - enabled 'upload' module etc, so when i blog or post a page/story etc i see an image inline option like float right, float left, center, etc and the ability to attach just as a listed item and not show if desired.

BUT the problem now is that with the img filter the image is always dropped to top of content - if you really want to control how the image is displayed on the post itself, like a high end magazine site with produced story formats and all of that, then you're stuck uploading (for now) into an images folder and then using the IMG tags in the post (after allowing them in the input filters)...or maybe i'm wrong about that, but that's what it feels like - unless you want tinymce type crap...

btw, allowing full html for registered users (or a class of registered users) also allows for very simple embedding of videos and script without additional mods (like embed youtube et al)...but you have got to trust your userbase to deal with this...

The img module work with [img:xx], [inline:xx] like tags too. (xx could be a number or filename)

imgfilter is great - got it up and running and am now screwing around with custom placement - and thanks (btw) for fixing that poll display bug ;)
