click on the camera when you post it will appear at the top of your post,  I circled it in the screenshot:

then drag and drop your image---

Yes, that's when a picture is inserted from the computer. I'm interested in how to do it via URL, as there was a possibility before?

Yes,... I saw that and tried it, but I still only get the link to the product, not the image itself. Before, BBCode was used, now it is nowhere to be seen to make the product image visible,...
Does anyone know how to do this?

Follow the instructions in ColsCreations link. Those instructions will result in getting the full image, not just a link.

Now I'm confused. What exactly is it you want to do? If you just want to insert an image into your post, use the Camera icon as iDraw directed to upload a file from your computer.
If you want to insert a product image w/link as in this example in the Show Me forum, you can use the Share icon from your back-end to grab the HTML code to paste here. In the old forum we copied the BBC code. In this forum, we need instead to copy & paste the HTML code.

I wanted to do as it was before (BBCode), but I see that now there is no such option. And as far as I understand, they have complicated things, so now we need to put the design from our computer and copy the link with the same design and add it to the post,... I thought there was something simpler like before, instead of removing and re-inserting the images and I paste their links,... Thanks for your help,...

You don't need to put the design on your computer and copy the link. You just copy the HTML code instead of copying the BBC code. Follow these instructions exactly and it will work.

This is the link that ColsCreations posted upthread and the instructions will absolutely get your product image into the forum just like copying BBC code. The only thing that has changed is you copy HTML instead of BBC. That's the only thing that changed.

It now occurs to me that you may have tried this and been thrown off by the red warning text that happens. Ignore it and post anyway. It will work.

I tried, but it won't work, that's why I'm going back to the beginning and here I'm asking if anyone else has an idea? And I am asking the technical service for help, too. Thank you.

Go to the product, at the bottom is Share, click on that, then you will see—
Link to this>BBcode>in that code is the jpg along with the link to the product.

NOT THE BBcide!!  Use the HTML CODE (the middle box) - copy the contents, then in the Forum Reply box, click on the elipses at the end of the actions line (...) then click on the [HTML] (or sometimes the <> )at the end of the actions line. A new form opens - Paste your copied code there. Hit REPLY, page changes back. Hit Reply, page changes again, Hit REPLY - you have created the post. It may show up right beneath the message you are replying to, or at the bottom of the page you are on.

Click on REPLY,  click the three dots (...) and you will see HTML, click on it and a new table will appear. Add the HTML link of your product on the new table. and click at least twice on POST. Good luck!
