Uploader uploads only one file per upload

Post by dsteuer » Thu Oct 14, 2021 9:31 pm

Hi all,

when using the uploader and selecting multiple file for upload, the upload silently fails.
Does anybody else get the same outcome?

When selecting one and only one file I can upload.

Faltpress 1.2.1.

A big problem is the "silently", there are no error messages.

Al the best

Hi,

this may be a upload size restriction by your web server. Have you tried uploading multiple, but tiny files (e.g., some text files)?
That there is no error message is not great, indeed.

All the best,

Yeah, I had increased the limit, but oviously only enough for one picture. An error message would be great nevertheless.
Sorry for the noise!

No need to excuse :)

Assuming we're talking about your Universaldilettant website, one thing came to my attention: The images are quite huge (4896x2752 pixels, > 5 MB each). With a quite underwhelming internet connection, it took me more than 7 seconds to load only one image. Is it an option simply to scale them down a bit? On my bike touring book, I go with 1350x900 px, which makes each image weigh about 500 kB.
I strongly recommend IrfanView for this task, it's free for personal use. It also brings a batch mode that does not only resizes, but also renames (e.g., to yyyy-mm-dd_hh-ii-ss.jpeg format) many images at once.

All the best,
