Tracker Images

posts: 175 Canada

Hello Tiki,

Is there a way to make a tracker use a file gallery to store images uploaded with the image field? I believe they get put into img/trackers, and that's that. So you can't use the image plugins in wiki pages, eg the randomgallery function which we want to use to show people's uploads on the home page.

Cheers!

Hmm. I'm missing how the trackerlist plugin helps. What we specifically want to do is show random images from those uploaded by our visitors, like you can with file gallery images.

As it is they're stored with a random filename like 64e133bea3a031a58c2b786d389a397a in img/trackers. With no suffix so if you try to call it from a browser you get the text of the image code, so I can't use a random image javascript, I think.

It would be nice if they could be dealt with like regular file uploads.

Oh my. I had the bright idea to do a batch upload to the file gallery from the trackers folder... it saw all the images and said it succeeded.

BUT it deleted all the images from the trackers folder AND they don't appear in the file gallery.

Oops.

Anyone have any idea where they might have gone? We're using the db to store files.

Ok I found them. They're in the db with no names & gallery ID 0

I had clicked "remove suffix" and the files had no suffixen (they're from the trackers which doesn't include one for them for some reason.
