In all options, there is no image file size written.
But in the Medium BBCode option, there is an additional 38kb which means it is the size of the image in medium size.

It seems to be quite annoying when copying it to the post board and having to delete it manually.

Thanks for the alert. I had to do some tests, and I ended up leaving this information behind.
Situation corrected, it should not appear again.

Having been an early TalkImg user until now, I have seen many changes and improvements.
One of them is BBCode Link which includes Full, Medium, and Thumbnail sizes.

I tried all of them, but I found an oddity in the Medium BBCode link option.

I have used similar approach in one of my work projects. We resize the images on-the-fly as they requested, in my case we were keeping original full size image, but you can do it both return the resized image to the user and in the backend also replace the image with new resized one.

This experience of yours gave me another idea! Thanks.

I believe that I will have news on this in the next few days.  Tongue

This could be an interesting solution, but it would have to have the Cron Job process running every second, to ensure that the images were immediately readjusted.
Well, it's a solution I might look into.

You don't need to run Cron Job if you don't want to. You can do it on-the-fly, resizes or compresses the images as they are requested.

Therefore, I find it strange that this problem appeared suddenly. I am studying the subject.
I hope you are doing regular backups of your website data and settings, so that you can quickly restore it if something is messed up along the way. Wink

Could this be something related with your other tool zip.talkimg.com that is used for reducing image size?
Maybe something is mixed up with main talkimg website settings.

No, it will be... Because the zip tool is running as part of the main software.
It sends images via API, and in the tests I did, it sent images larger than 2MB without any problems.

I checked, and there is indeed a failure in recognizing images larger than 2MB, causing the upload to fail. I am analyzing what is causing this problem, as everything is configured to be able to upload up to 2.5MB.

I am usually not uploading larger size images, and it's best to resize them manually to avoid any errors.

Until can fix the problem, uploading images up to 3MB is authorized. But remember that the forum only accepts images up to 2.5MB.
This got me thinking: how about accepting all images (or maybe with a 20 MB limit to avoid crazy large files), and processing them after uploading? My first Google hit shows how to do it with mogrify. Assuming you have shell access on the server, you can check the file size after uploading, and reduce it when needed.

I had a small suggestion. I don't know if it's possible or not. Instead of checking image size can't TalkImg compress the actual image and resize it make more suitable for upload.

When I'm on my mobile I face problem when uploading. Normally a image is never less then 5mb. And it won't upload due to size limit.

Not saying image size limit should be removed. But saying it should be at least 10mb (or at least 5mb minimum) and also compression method included.

Social media's do it. They won't care about size. They would automatically compress, resize and upload.

I just got same error report

I had never gotten such error before and so decided to check if anyone's had made same complains before then I saw yours. I tried uploading same image again but this time I edited image image from png(2.45mb) to jpeg(1mb) and it worked. I would suggest you do same mate. I don't know if it will work though for you. Please, I would love if someone could explain why this is happening because the image size limit for Talking.com is 2.5mb and my image didn't exceed this limit.

Well you are right I just tried to upload different png files with size 2.48mb, 2.46mb. 2.38mb, they all failed gave File Size error on client side.



I know this is error is on the client side since talkimg is checking image size on the client, before sending data to server.

However when I reduced the file size to 2.32mb, 2.2mb and 2.0mb i didn't get the error on client side but after I click upload got the same below error.



In the mean time i noticed my image size was <2.5mb but image dimension were above 1800x1800 pixels. When I reduced the dimension to 1700x1700 pixels, file was uploaded successfully.

I think joker_josue can answer this, however it looks like not only the image size but image dimensions or may be some other checks are in place which prevents upload on the server size.

Edit: I think my image dimension theory is wrong since I'm able to upload large 2200x2200 pixels image with smaller file size of 1.6mb.

But yes above error is valid and is reproduced able.

Edit 2:
All my above work goes in vain, just click "Check the error report" link and it says Smiley



So in simple words file size must be 2mb not 2.5mb Smiley

I returned on this forum after some pause and discovered that imgur links don't work anymore and all images in my threads were missing. That's when I found this thread.
I have a thread about image compression where I explain benefits of image compression and tools that we can use, I think it will benefit you if people compress their images before they upload it on your website. Have a look at this thread, it will be pleasent if you add this here:  Links, Scripts & Add-ons  _______.

Btw, if you plan to improve visual aspect of your website and want to do some uix changes, I can help you for free (I can only design, I can't code). Here is the link of me making a bitcointalk's app design.

How many daily active users do you have? It's a very nice project, dedicated for bitcointalk, wish you all the best.

Has anyone else experienced this before?

This is certainly the first time I experienced this. Not sure why. I have tried to use different web browsers. Sorry, I am unable to copy the incident ID. Maybe joker_josue can make the incident ID easy to copy.

Incident ID:6529d14d3d3e9

It weird that I was able to upload another image after the error

Did this happen just once, or several times with the same file?

This error usually occurs when a new upload is attempted but the browser did not correctly reload the page.
When you click on the "New Upload" button, what you are doing is refreshing the page, it will be the same as clicking "F5". Sometimes this refresh may not occur, generating this error.

What I recommend, if you are doing several uploads in a row, is instead of clicking the "New Upload" button, you will sometimes click "F5", to ensure that the page is actually refreshed.

Has anyone else experienced this before?

Yes, especially if I have already uploaded a couple of images prior.  I've found the "new upload" button (feel free to correct the actual name if you must) doesn't always work, so what I do instead is go into my profile and then click on the "new upload" button and whatever the fault is has cleared.

 Statistics  September 2023____________________
In September I had the opportunity to present a new tool, which allows the user to upload an image larger than 2.5MB and it is compressed and sent to the hosting. This tool is still in beta, so errors may occur and many things may change. Server-side compression and PHP features are used, which may not guarantee the final quality of the image. But, I hope it is useful. If you want to test it, just visit: https://zip.talkimg.com/


Here are the numbers for the month and totals:
               
 
 Number of uploads in the month:
 7.168 (+1.436 last month)
 
 Total image disk space:
 15GB (+2 last month)
 
 Number of visits to the talkimg.com website in the month: 4.190 (+316 last month)
 Bandwidth in the month: 337GB (+1 last month)


Thank you for using this service.

I opened a topic, to understand how many users use Tor and have these access difficulties. Thank you for your participation.

That's true, i forget it happens on Bitcointalk few times. But on other hand, i don't know other security protection which isn't expensive.

Well, Cloudflare has a free Firewall system, I can analyze the possibility of implementing it, and check what the result will be.
As soon as I have news, I'll let you know.  Wink
