Link Specification for FTP upload

If you check Copy link text to clipboard… option on the FTP Upload window, this dialog box appears and allows you to specify a text link that is automatically copied to clipboard after a successful FTP upload.

You may include macros listed below, which will be expanded as needed.

Example: If you have entered the following data in FTP dialog box:

Remote file name: /img/Snap7.jpg

FTP Server: www.myserver.com

and the image you uploaded was 300 pixels wide and 250 pixels high, the following text:

<img src=”http://d2nwkt1g6n1fev.cloudfront.net/helpmax/wp-content/uploads/sub/hypersnap/en/source/http://%server%%path%” height=”%height%” width=”%width%”>

will be expanded to:

<img src=”http://d2nwkt1g6n1fev.cloudfront.net/helpmax/wp-content/uploads/sub/hypersnap/en/source/http://www.myserver.com/ img/Snap7.jpg” height=”250″ width=”300″>

This expanded text will be automatically copied to the clipboard, and you can easily paste it into any web page editor.
