Before using this action, please review Imgur's [[https://imgur.com/tos|Terms of service]], if you do not agree with the terms please refrain from using this service.</note> | |

| ! Since 1.9.9 a hidden option is available to toggle the visibility of "Host on Imgur" in the action list, useful for whoever wants to avoid accidental usages. This option is called ''enable_imgur_upload'', accepts ''true'' or ''false'' as value and can be defined in ''~/.config/xfce4/xfce4-screenshooter''. Notice that your distribution may set this option to ''false'' by default. | |
