Image size upload & Database download

  • Thanks and this is a very good plugin! I have some questions and hope you can help:

    1) If I want to restrict the image size upload up to 3MB Jpg. Am I just put “3” in the field of “Restrict resolution for uploaded”?

    2) If #1 is correct – I put “3” in the restrict field, and then test it with upload a 6MB image. The upload page load a bit and then return with a blank page… is it a error? Or can we put some message like.. “Your image exceed the limited file size”?

    3) In admin – I know we can zip all pictures and download. Can we able to download other data (name, email…) in excel or csv format together with images?

    4) In Gallery page – Once you click the thumbnail and it shows the big image in lightbox. However I notice that you have to click and hold the mouse button in order to display the photo details (name, title…). Can we display the info just below the image?

    Thanks so much!

  • Hello terrysklau,

    1) For maximum MB upload the plugin check the value which is configurated in php ini file (you can see it in backend also https://screencast.com/t/AQjYfdnFFLj, same value is also for frontend):
    https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-increase-the-maximum-file-upload-size-in-wordpress/
    In the resolution field you have to set maximum resloution of images you like to have. For example: 800*800=640000 . It’s because your server power is limited for uploading and converting images. For example it’s set 20MB in php.ini. But if you try to upload image with this size, it will be around 6.000 * 6.000 resolution, you will get server error, because it takes to much resources of server to upload. So you have to set a resolution limitation. In comming updates i will provide extra fields for configurtation of pixel of width and height of an image. That will be more understandble.

    2) <<< See 1) ??

    3) Thats good idea. Will be provided in next updates.

    4) I thought it will be cooler to display it by clicking. Why you don’t like this behavior? Of course it’s possible to display info below image. But then image get smaller. Especially if there is much information.
    Or if you show it below on the image, then you will not see part of an image.

    Best regards

    Hi Wasiliy, Thanks so much for your detail explanation.

    Sorry but I still not very clear about the maximum Mb upload… I checked the configurated in php.ini is 50MB in my case. However if I only want users to submit their photo (each) under 3Mb (or 5Mb). What number should I fill in “resolution” then? Not sure how to calculate this number…

    I have one more question about Auto reply email if you don’t mind.
    In admin “Edit e-mail text” – I filled my email address in “Reply mail” field. When I doing the testing (Approve the submitted photo), then I received an auto reply email from a different email address (This email shows my hosting company email format somehow….) but not the email I preset. Any idea?

    Thanks again!

    Hi Wasiliy, Please ignore my question above regarding “Auto reply email” as I fixed it after talked to my hosting company. But I appreciate if you can explain a bit more what number should I use for 3Mb or 5 Mb photo…. Thanks.

    Hello,

    in the moment you can only configure it through php.ini. I have to implement a maximum MB restriction in the plugin. Will be done in next update. Is priorised.

    I think 3MB is about 2k*1k resolution. But depends on picture quality also. In next update there will be configuration ability to restrict width and hight extra.

    Best regards
