Hi @gdecuir, There is not plugin to auto resize the uploaded image, you can increase the upload limit from your php configuration
You can check following thread for hiding specific member ids

Hi @rams_mohan, Welcome to BuddyBoss Community
Seems your upload limit is less than 5mb, please increase it from your server end.

Create or Edit an existing PHP.INI file

you will not see a php.ini file in your directory. If you do not see one, then create a file called php.ini and upload it in the root folder. In that file add the following code:

upload_max_filesize = 64M
post_max_size = 64M
max_execution_time = 300

else you can also upload theme theme with the help of ftp or filemanager.

This is still an issue and really needs to be fixed as the cover photo I uploaded was way to big but there were no prompts. The cover photo feature is pretty useless without this. Ideally there should be an option to auto-resize the photo you are uploading.

Also, on some photos I’m trying to upload I’m getting the error message “Error: File Size Error”. Is this related to the above or is this to do with the file size of the photo in terms of megabytes? If the latter, what are the file size limits in terms of megabytes for the uploads?

Thanks

James

Is there a way to limit file size of the upload? So, not albums, or photo limits, rather a limit to the size file someone can upload. I have a technologically unconscious community and sometimes the file size is 6MB for one image.

Hello Team

Is there a way to limit the size of photos upload by users? Some users are crazy 😉

Thank you

@hugblue easiest solution is this plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/imsanity/

How do i limit the picture size that users are uploading ?
And how many KB/MB the picture is ?

Because some Members are uploading pictures with size 3000×3000 and they fill a lot on the server.

Thanks.

This should be fixed in 1.0.6, available now.

BuddyBoss Media 1.0.6

Many servers have lower memory limits (esp. shared hosting) and the image rotation fix uses a lot of RAM to run the process. This happens even more often on mobile devices, where people have very high resolution cameras uploading images with large file sizes, which then get rotated on the server and uploaded.

We fixed this two ways.

1) We added an option in the BuddyBoss Media settings to turn the rotation fix on or off, off by default. It tells you what your current server memory is, with a warning that we suggest 256-512mb RAM to use the feature. If you want, you can turn it on. The script fixes images from being uploaded sideways, which often happens with mobile device browsers (not related to BuddyBoss, happens on all kinds of websites due to some quirks with mobile browsers).

2) We also added a fallback, for users that enable the feature, that checks at the last stage of the script’s execution if a fatal error has ocurred in the rotation fix file, then continues the ajax call without rotating.

@mth75 please note there is a limit to the size of a photo uploaded limited by PHP. Make sure they are not trying to upload an uber large photo.

@jerseypeeps PHP has an inherent size of uploaded images. There is a large server load the larger the image. The typical size in 10M but that does not mean that is the limit as you would imaging but typically 10 million pixels in the image. You may need to contact your server host and see how large the load is and try to increase it if possible. You may also want to look into a photo cruncher that will resize/optimize the photo before upload to your site.
