Is it just me or does the PAM guide not load images since the conversion??

I can't get any of the images to load on either a tablet or desktop-just unclickable image links. Any fix for this?

I don't think it is only you. But is the guide completely lacking images or there are just a lot of images not appearing? I'm contacting @ALE7575 right now on the matter.

It's not just you. Ale has said the guide needs some work since we switched over

It's most likely because of the switch in the forum engine. Xenforo isn't as quick as vBulletin in loading images, so probably to compensate for that lag, some (or most) of the image links are put inside in lazy, not img tags. However, for the performance increase, what's affected is image loading. Probably the forum admins can better explain as I have no experience with XF. I did try loading the same thread on XF and on VB and the vB page loads right up with all the images. XF definitely takes longer but eventually loads all of the images (but only on one post that I tested it on, I couldn't try the entire guide).

Hi friends
Some time ago (we were still with VB platform) @DR3M3L introduced a [lazy] function to improve the discharge of images in PAM GUIDE. For some reason this function is not working with the new Xenforo.
But @DR3M3L and @atgm are surely very busy ATM to bother them with this matter
Please be patient
