Failed to download the image! Error cannot connect to destination hostError
It keeps giving me this error message, plugin loads fine. Im trying to use imgur for image. Any ideas? In console it says error downloading image : (malformed url).
What is the URL you are using for the image(s)? That error would generally indicate it was an invalid URL, or at least not a valid image URL. Remember, direct URL to image... not a webpage with images on it.
Hi,
I think this plugin was broken after the facepunch update on 10th September.
What's not working ping ?

I am using a direct image url.  "https://i.imgur.com/NU5Y7SO.png"

I would suggest trying with a different image host to test. Sometimes Imgur redirects to the image page.

Haha, i did that also. I did try some of my own troubleshooting before i came here. I tried re-uploading the image, i tried a different host and a different image entirely. All with the same result. I confirmed the plugin is loading properly from console and i do have the newest version. I also tried unloading/deleting the plugin and reloading/re-downloading the plugin.

Are you sure the server itself can connect to those hosts, outside of the game?
I mean it worked on my server when i first installed the plugin with absolutely 0 problems, only recently this issue popped up and i cant recall if it was right after i updated sign artist or if it was just a server wipe/restart and this started happening. Theres also no error in console upon the plugin loading or when i try to use /sil to input the picture. All i get is, "Your image was added to the download queue!" and right after a second or two, "Failed to download the image! Error Cannot connect to destination host."

Update : So i kept spamming /sil url "https://thumbs2.imagebam.com/e5/ec/f0/061e161355261904.jpg" and it randomly worked, but that was before failing before and failing again after with absolutely 0 changes made.

Why would it work randomly and then go back to not working.

Are there any plugins that you know of that mess with Sign Artist?

Is there any chance another plugin is causing this?

I just tried it on a brand new server and it didnt work. It was a brand new server set up for tests, newest version of Oxide with 0 plugins loaded just Sign Artist and it didnt work.

I am also getting this problem with images.

However seperately also being told a file is over 1mb when the file was actually 15kb lol
