Having trouble uploading pictures... I haven't encountered that problem yet

Felix, I will email you tonight to see what you were doing and see if we can recreate it

You have uploaded an image of the error and I uploaded an image of the Lancaster this morning, seems to work ok

I tried to upload 5 images at once on the Ipad. It was only able to upload three, the last two had an error. I then tried to upload the missing two again, but then there was trouble with finding the first three images. I had to write the post a few times because it would get stuck when I hit submit. I saw the same message on one of Stephen's posts saying that it couldn't locate the image, but next day the message was gone on his post (on his Nova post in the hatch thread)...

The error message disappeared on my post because I deleted and recreated the whole message!

It wouldn't let me insert two pictures - either one or the other.

In the end I added two pictures, but only inserted one and let the other just automatically appear at the end of the message.

I was getting the same message as Felix; I just assumed something had got corrupted. I was on my Android phone, Chrome browser.

There is currently an issue where the multiple image upload doesn't work, in the meantime please add a dot for the file comment while I fix it

Thank you Zac, superb job

Still working on this issue.

It works on the test site but not the live, software should be the same.

I should have realised looking at posts that the image size had reset to the default of 1000, hence smaller images. Now corrected so images will now be resized to a maximum of 2560 x 1440 if above that.

This is bespoke code I wrote when the club kindly agreed to pay to host the photos that used to be on photobucket that we would have otherwise lost when they started charging, so taking a while to figure it out.

This is now fixed.

Hi Zac

I’m having this trouble too.

It only lets me attach two images and I can’t preview the images in my post before I list the post.

I also get this strange message (which I’ve taken a screenshot of and attached to this post as an attachment but I’m not sure if it will show), which says:

Error
Error parsing server response

Any help would be much appreciated.

This seems to be an issue with the upload size (specifically the multipart body parts limit). I have asked Guy for a copy of the images causing the problem.

Zac,

Are these issues related to the updates in anyway? I also have said issues uploading photos.

Regards,
Karan

It may be related but I haven't seen other forums that have been updated having the issue. Can you email me the photos you are trying to upload and I will see if I can recreate it. It's confusing at it is complaining about hitting a limit but that limit is set to 'no limit'

Not sure if it is picking the lower limit up from running in the WordPress site, I need to investigate.

If people have problems can they send me the images being uploaded please? areas@joc.org.uk either by email or wetransfer.com

Zac, can't people just NOT use Firefox ?

[felixkk]

I've switched to Chrome for the forum. The loading of the forum works fine, but since a last Thursday or so you can only attach two images per post. Also on the Ipad. It loads three images, gives an error with loading the rest of the images, but only displays two in the post.

The problem uploading images applies to all browsers.

The upload works fine on the test install, I need to compare the config and check the update in case I missed something. The error I had to introduce the work around for didn't happen on the test system.

Please bear with me, in the meantime please only update 2 images at a time
