Hi @kyagi, We don’t offer the ability to add media directly in the body of docs. The issue is that, with attachments, we can protect them if they’re attached to a private post, but do not have any logic in place to protect media added in the manner you’re requesting.
Best,

Thanks David,
In my project there is the need to insert images inside doc, there are scientific docs with graphs, images etc.. I am trying to find an easy way for users to have images inserted into documents.
In the same Buddypress website I’ve installed “Social Article Plugin” that permit user to insert post from front end. This plugin permit to paste image from clipboard or add image from Add Media Button and the user ask me why in docs this is not possible?
Furthermore is similar TinyMCE editor:
View post on imgur.com
I’ve found a workaround to insert inline image in docs in 3 steps, that works only in Google Chrome Browser (windows and mac).
1) Upload Image with Add Files
2) Copy URL (on windows mouse right click on the name of the uploaded image)
View post on imgur.com
3) Paste on docs document (CTRL-V on Windows)
View post on imgur.com
And at the end the image is fully visible and resizable inside docs.
If this can be compatible also in Safari on mac form me is perfect, can be a bug?.
Are you sure you need to use BP Docs? If your created posts are public, why not just use some sort of front-end post editor and simplify the setup?

BP Doc is great because it allows multi writers and has an excellent management of permissions, if it also had a user friendly image management even for a fee, it would be top.
