Symbiostock Test Build - the Bug Stomping Thread!

[THP Creative]

Leo I keep hitting something with image uploads. It's no longer a BIG size issue, as I am uploading some 3MP files at the moment and about 30% of them come up with this

No matching image files found. You may have named them incorrectly. Fix problem and re-upload. This file has been removed. Example: "my_stock_art.eps" or "my_stock_art.zip" must have accompanying ""my_stock_art.jpg" to be considered a valid set/file.

They are ALL photos, haven't uploaded a single vector yet.

Any ideas? I'm using the site uploader, not ftp. And using bluehost now.

I've been enjoying people's work actually - http://thpstockphotos.com/image/desert-camel/

Been a lot of fun.

Ha, thanks for liking the camel

As they say here on the islands "no worries" we'll get it taken care of. Let me see what conditions it checks for to say that.

[Leo Blanchette]

btw what is the name of your file(s) that say that?

[ruchos]

Great camel shot!

And Leo, feel free to use screengrabs from my site.

Code Select Expand

       
        if ( !in_array( 'jpg', $available_extensions ) && !in_array( 'png', $available_extensions ) ) {
            //then give user hard time....
        }


This only takes png and jpg... so are you uploading another image type like tiff or something?

Still looking into what else might trip it...

Cheers....it'll soon be for sale by the way. I give you good price for it.

There's a guy down the road who collects exotic animals. Zebras, african bull thingies, ...gonna buy a boar piglet from him soon ... he might be interested. How do you ship those things?

BTW - waiting on an answer - what filetypes are you uploading? Are they other than png or jpg

edit - oh your talking to him

Just .jpg files. they are small though - is there issue with files being too small in either pixels or filesize? They are all 3-4mp and about 1-3mb in size.

[THP Creative]

WAIT - just noticed the files that failed were .JPG (notice the uppercase), which is still a valid jpg but perhaps thats the problem?

Also, I think the other files that might have failed had a "_" (underscore) in the name.

I reckon thats it, I just tried it again, one with the .JPG and one just .jpg and it works on the 2nd file but not the first.

Might need to loosen up the upload parameters a bit?

[Leo Blanchette]

JPG would die yes. And _ should not hurt anything but let me see.

Can you give me a few samples of fail-able images? dropbox or message me with some temporary downloads on your site. That way I can fix it. I might be able to make it accommodate uppercase. Is that common?

[THP Creative]

And you can buy the camel shot too Leo - you see, I've got this great new website powered by some coding guru from the islands and it allows everyone to buy as many camel shots as they like.

LOL we're on catchment, I don't think I could keep up with it's water intake. But a pic...yeah, he'd look good hung around the house.

"_" does not trip up the script. just uppercase jpg. Maybe I'll just make sure everything gets converted to lowercase upon transfer.

Anyway, if you can send me those files I can fix any other issues besides that.

[THP Creative]

Sorry, more error testing and I have found it is indeed only .JPG that breaks (not the underscore from what I can see)

Not much point sending you one, as you can change any jpg at your end to it.

It's not that common, but many point and shoot cameras do use it as an extension.

[Leo Blanchette]

Thanks I didn't know that. I'll get cracking on that. I'm glad that was the only issue.

[THP Creative]

sorry, I keep replying at the same time as you!

So try converting one of your files to .JPG and it will replicate the same thing. Not that I'm against sending you my files, just that I've gotta run for the night.

See ya! I'll keep plugging away at this tomorrow arvo. (that's "afternoon" for all you non-australians)

[Leo Blanchette]

No prob. Will have another update ready for you by then.

[Leo Blanchette]

fixed in 1 line of code!

From me:

- prices changed to values without decimal point and exactly two digits after it, are displayed in 'RF Images->All images' as they were entered, and on image page buyer sees them in cents. For example 2 is seen as 0.02 and so on. Another axample: "2.50" needs to be entered axactly as "2.50". "2.5"  makes "0.25"

- i changed default image sizes, but for old and newly uploaded images, still old sizes are displayed as available for download.

Both cases - known and expected right now. But thanks for mentioning it - fix eventually will be made.

Until more validation/correction is put in, the user has to enter amount.00 (the decimal) or the math will get funky.

Also the sizes are only memorized on upload right now. Will fix soon. Just want to make sure it doesn't break anything.

Microstock man's fixes applied. Moving the "New release" to bottom of thread:

[Leo Blanchette]

4/2/13 - updated testing theme - please download 1.1.7

Please note: The best thing you can do for the project at this time is to tell others about Symbiostock, and grow your network.

Thanks Leo! The latest install cleared up my 404 error during search. I still can't find some terms but I can certainly live with that. The categories work fine as an alternative. (yep, my site is set to "post"). This is great and I have plans for a second site already since I have more than one niche.

[Pixart]

This isn't exactly a bug, but I wonder if everyone knows it shows like this.  Inserting screencapture from both Laurent's and my site:

This happens when you hit the magnifying glass to preview a photo.  If you notice under the title it says "by Pixart", but under Laurent's it has his e-mail address.  I'm pretty sure these are the names of our admin account.  In my case it looks okay, but I'm not sure that Laurent will want his e-mail address under what really is "author".

Sorry - this hasn't been mentioned has it, I'm trying to keep on top of the posting.
