Add images from URL/path

[caver01]

Starting to play with functionality and find that the real barrier for me will be adding existing recipes and images. This is a slow process adding images and ingredients one by one.

One idea that would really save time is the image upload function. I have seen systems that allow drag-and-drop uploads or load from URL which would really save time here. As it is, I need to have an image file already downloaded and saved somewhere so I can select it to upload it. That’s usually a multi-step process that slows down adding stuff.

Example: Wanted to add Genepy to my ingredients. Easy enough to pull up details from the HausAlpenz website. But I first need to grab their image, save it locally, then add image, go find where I saved it. . .
Wouldn’t it be nice if I could just long click on the image and either copy/paste into your interface, or copy URL and paste, or simply drag the image from one browser window to yours.

This github issue should be tagged as FEAT

It's not a full solution to your request, but usually if it's not a crazy long URL I've been able to paste that into the open file dialog in Firefox to directly upload an image URL.

Oh nice. I will give that a shot

Ok. This won’t work on iOS/iPadOS either since the open file dialog doesn’t have a place to paste anything, and the file browser doesn’t either:
