Description:

Invalid [image_url] : ’…’ This means you’ve entered an invalid image_url.

This could be caused by having spaces in your url or it is not formatted quite right.

Solution:

  1. Make sure your URL works by entering it into the search bar in any web browser.
  2. Make sure there are no spaces in your URL.
  3. If it does work make sure you’ve entered it correctly in the template.
  4. Make sure you are posting the image’s URL and not a site URL.

Example of site vs image URL:

Site: https://imgur.com/YobcUsr
