+reybr Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 Hi, I'm trying to add an image on cache page from my OneDrive account, but it doesn't allow me because it's hosted on a third-party website. I know of the changes made back in September 2020, but OneDrive is on the list of approved hosting services and should be allowed. The current domainname for my image is sn3301files.storage.live.com Please have a look into why OneDrive isn't accepted on the webpage 1 Quote Link to comment
+balu2003 Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 How have you insert the link in your Listing? In the html source like this with an img tag ? <img src=" image link"> and which image link do you use? (see https://www.mail-signatures.com/articles/direct-link-to-hosted-image/) Quote Link to comment

The problem isn't the tag or the link, but that geocaching.com doesn't even let you save the page if you hotlink to a third party site. OneDrive is allowed though and should work. 1 Quote Link to comment
+balu2003 Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 (edited) I have a cache with a link to a third party site. https://coord.info/GC90BNZ And I have inserted an embedded Link to OneDrive and stored the Listing. It works Edited June 23, 2021 by balu2003 Quote Link to comment
+reybr Posted June 25, 2021 Author Share Posted June 25, 2021 Yes, it works on your listing because the server is different for you. My OneDrive storage is on sn3301files.storage.live.com and yours is on public.am.files.1drv.com. Apparently, 1drv.com is allowed, but not storage.live.com Quote Link to comment
+balu2003 Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 I have tried to add from this forum https://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php?t=174485 this embedded and public link with the same domain as yours from Onedrive in my own listing <img border="0" src="https://sn3301files.storage.live.com/y4mD3WVXgk2N2Aaj25p_8-krqfCom7CSjgHKbmHj_86ghqL6O8WF5vNc-bDp4Ug-uv4BOqZsCvmE9VxGG4c-lp3JkIowrnINAthmGPQPhequkLMylNAG5s2fORXDhhMi1L5IcyqSgk9X_AFbERsojPZ6IS7QKsDzE8_-C2m4o1y01dTdF9lfmZpmjthNaL8iRAr" /> And I get this error message from the gc webseite Remove all images hosted on a third-party website to save changes. Tip: Upload images directly to the cache page with the user-friendly editor. So you are right, but But when you put the above link with sn3301files... in the browser then a download starts with a png file. You when look at the response header from the browser request there is an other link in the response https://aipndq.sn.files.1drv.com/y4mZ5MdXNtWRydL1GVjEy7aZvPZ-SGzyHEJ76TWVKHlpT9gX7xNWFfSWVczoTg2IIjXiJ_vP_ZKLdVPu4IMj_0RmyUq8i8GteUi_ueeWAK41tyXOHxIUK8qTij7iRw_DYDre4ekqLMLeGl9p-M-QAILdQuiydLxyoTrcas-YN7yeQha_KkMo9Q9fSSrh6zwexHii-05ifSXY-GfweN5wv0uVw 1.) when you put this URL in your browser the picture is shown by the browser and not donwloaded ! 2.) I have embedded that linkin my listing and it works Conclusions I don't know wether this is really a bug on gc website, Maybe the problem is, that your link is a shareable link (dowlnoad) and not an embedded link (rendered in the client) Links which starts directly a donwload are forebidden , as far I know. Has you tried to create an embedded link with OneDrive as described in my linked article? Quote Link to comment
+reybr Posted June 27, 2021 Author Share Posted June 27, 2021 It is the link given to me when selecting embed from OneDrive, the same way that is explained in the article you linked to. I gave up and moved my images to Google so for me there isn’t a problem. I’d prefer if OneDrive works though as it is much easier Quote Link to comment
