Copy link

Please add an option to also copy the title (and/or description) into clipboard, not only the URL of an uploaded image.

I.e. in addition to "copy links to clipboard" [x]
I would also like "copy title to clipboard" [x]
and "copy description to clipboard" [x]

So, if all those boxes were checked by the user, after all uploads are complete, the clipboard content would be something like this:

{title1} {url1} {description1}
{title2} {url2} {description2}
...
{titlen} {urln} {descriptionn}

Hi @w4hnsinn,

Thanks for your suggestion, I think this would be a nice addition! In the mean time I believe I can offer you an intermediate solution to help save some time; you can use the recently introduced 'Grid view' in the History page to obtain your clipboard almost as you describe (though not exactly with the parameters in the order you describe). To do so, follow these steps:

  1. Ensure you have EasyImgur v0.5.0 or newer.

  2. Upload your images separately as usual.

  3. Open the History tab in the EasyImgur window.

  4. Open the Grid view tab in the history page.

  5. In the table you are now shown, select the cells of the 'Link', 'Title', and 'Description' columns for the images you have just uploaded

  6. Press Ctrl+C or the 'Copy' button

This will place the links of the selected cells on your clipboard as 1 line per URL like so:

https://i.imgur.com/lorem.png title description
https://i.imgur.com/ipsum.png title description
https://i.imgur.com/dolor.png title description
https://i.imgur.com/sit.png title description
https://i.imgur.com/amet.png title description

I realise that these steps are slightly more involved than having this data be placed on your clipboard automatically, and that you can't dictate the order of this data (as the order will always be the order of the columns in the grid view), but I hope this can tide you over until the feature you suggest has been implemented!
