Resizing
 

Chuck could you please look at my Image and admin settings, I'am trying to set a limit for upload size in the gallery and in private albums. When I upload to a private album its says upload complete, the goes to members index page. When I return to the private album there is no picture or thumb nail. its empty. I thought It was suppose to auto resize. If so I want this feature set properly. Thanks Jose

will pm admin pass and log in for you..

Remember if your uploading a file that is larger than your PHP max uploadsize the file upload will be dropped and this sounds like your situation. A default PHP install is limited to 2mb upload.

default
 

and this would be in the VBulletin admin folder???

Thanks again

I guess you did not understand what I said. If you try uploading a file that is larger than your PHP settings it will drop.

I suggest you set your max file upload sizes in photopost admin edit usergroups to something under 2000k to prevent this.

Ok
 

Thanks ............gotcha!!.................Vbulletin does not size any pictures that are http/or img from another site, and i'am fighting to keep the page from oversizing from big pictures.. Was not sure what the default settings for photopost were, was hoping you would or take a look at mine..Thanks again..Jose

Wife made change
 

My wife made me change it to 140000 KB because people could not upload pictures...some of the picture already on the site are 136000kb and smaller.


Your saying 2000K ??


Thanks Jose

Remember your max upload on a default PHP is 2mb which is 2000kb. If your php max filesize for uploads is 2mb there is no way to upload a file larger than this and if you try without restricting the filesize PHP is going to drop the large image and go forward without processing it.

OK - I understand that I should modify the "usergroup" for Upload File Size Limit (kB) to 2000kb or less. I got that. Now,if I go to the "Upload Photo Options", what should I set these fields to:

Max allowable image width in pixels ??
Max allowable image height in pixels ??
Trigger medium graphic height and width
An uploaded larger than this will create a medium image of this size. ??

Hello
 

Thumb nail size 100

max w: 800

max H:600

trigger 500

seems to work fine

Also I dont know about you, but I use Imagemagic and not GD2 , better compression program. check with your server first to see if they supply it.


Jose

Thanks Jose -- I tried this, but I'm still having problems. When I try to upload a large file (much larger than this configuration) I get a "Cannot Find Page" error.....

Isn't PhotoPost supposed to reduce the file size down to the trigger if it is larger that the max?

Judy

Jose's settings are fine although I would suggest medium trigger size of 500

Chuck

I have a page that I scanned that is 3522x3606 (pixels). I cannot get it to upload. Then I have some pages that are 850x1100 that upload just fine.

here's the link --> http://www.gulfcoastscrappers.com/photopost/index.php

Can you try this for me?

Judy

Thanks
 

Thanks chuck.....gonna change that to 500


I think she need to do what you told me ..delete the ID folder( Save picture before you do) re-upload afterwords.......????

Chucks on now he knows best.............Bye


Jose'

Yes your uploading large files and your gd is chocking.

You need to limit the filesize's allowed in usergroup options.

You need to delete every directory under uploads directory to get rid of files that are causing gd to choke. Your user uploads directories will be recreated.

Now you can switch to Imagemagick if it is on your server but if not you can use this tweak to give more memory to gd2.

You will not be able to upload a file that is over 2mb in a default PHP installation.

Resize of photos
 

Hallo,
now i have import all photos und now i will clean the photopost.
I have a problem with the photosize.

In setup is 460 px.

In one file (newer - but also import-coppermine) the photos are
in the right size.
I do a scan-data with options 1. rebuilt medium.... (in the file cat/5 medium are photos with the size 460 x xxx - i don't no why photopost don't show the photos in the medium-file..

And i recalculate (option) but the size is always the same - not the needet size 460 px.
to great:

In one other file (the same coppermine - import) is the size ok. What must i do, to get the right size.

You can select in admin => scan database rebuild mediums but this means only files that are larger than the trigger medium size you have entered in Admin => Upload Options. Smaller files are not going to have a medium
