[MOD] Image Upload Module (v0.93) -- Please test

[timofsuburbia]

I think I'm having the "no extension" problem. The image uploads to the image directory, but in the database, there is no .jpg extension, and the image does not appear in the post. The original image uploaded was also .jpg. Images I uploaded using the version .4 did include the .jpg extension and do appear in the post.

Hi adampoots,

What's not working?

Could someone perhaps send me the edited, .tpl files?

There was mistakenly omitted from the readme...

In your /templates/(your template)/editlink_edit_center.tpl file...

Look for the <form action> line...

Add to it:
enctype="multipart/form-data"

That last part allows for binary files to be attached. That must be added in order to upload photos from the edit entry section.

OK, thanks Cent. Now I am able to get some images to upload and display properly, but there seems to be a minimum size limit. So far .jpg files that are about 10kb are not loading properly but those over 100kb work fine.

Hi timofsurbia,

Thanks odd. Unless a file is NOT a JPG or over the maxium width/height for displaying on the site, its not even processed by anything and just uploaded, moved (renamed) and stored in the DB.

Can you send me a JPG that is causing the problem (10kb) so I can test on my end? I want to use the same image that you are as opposed to creating one on my end. As there may be certain issues with a particular image that I may not be able to reproduce in the same way.

Thanks

Best,
Cent

Sorry about that. I've been fooling a bit with my database trying to solve this.

I am going to try various sizes of this....

http://www.flickr.com/photo_zoom.gne...4708944&size=o

to test my hypothesis that there is some sort of lower limit. I would be happy to be wrong so we'll see.

EDIT: Update, only the largest version of that image seemed to upload properly. 800 x 600.

EDIT2: I seems that I have to drop the maximum height and width down below the size of the images being uploaded for them images to upload properly. For instance if I expect images to be 100 x 100 or higher, then I need to lower those values found in the image_upload_settings.php to under 100 each.

I installed the new version on a 9.5 install of Pligg and I'm still having problems when editing the image as an admin. I can delete an image but can't seem to upload a new one. This is what i get when trying to upload a replacement image in debug mode:

START: image_upload_preview_handler
Story ID = 17
Image Path = test/00photos/img_17
Image Caption = askjdas dkjhasd
Image File = img_17
No image found to display.
END: image_upload_preview_handler



I had the the previous version of image upload on this site and simply uninstalled it and deleted it and then uploaded and installed the new version. I don't know whether there's something i forgot to delete from the old version that could be causing problems ... but the new version seems pretty self contained.

Sorry I can't give an url right now ... it's on a protected dev server.

revolver,

If you can upload an image with a new entry, delete a photo when editing but cannot upload a new one, then try:

Open /templates/(your template)/editlink_edit_center.tpl

and look around line 25 for the <form action> line... change it to:
<form action="" method="post" id="thisform" enctype="multipart/form-data">

the enctype addition is necessary for file uploads.

let me know how that works for you.

best,
cent

Timofsurbia,

I believe I just fixed this problem. The filename wasn't being appended with ".jpg" for images that were smaller (width/height) than the settings and a JPG file. If you can try the attached file... its a direct replacement for the one you have installed and let me know if that works for you.
