I'm having a problem uploading images with the extension .JPG, .jpg works fine. The file selection doesn't show them and I note does not include upper case among the file types. Since I'm using Chrome on Linux that could be the area where the problem lies but other sites are OK.

I am pretty certain that is exactly where the problem lies. I can test it for you tonight on my husband's laptop, but I suspect it is a @Shaun that needs to be yelled.
 
Ta, had forgotten you worked in IT. Is it good to get a bit done now & again? I must admit I miss my databases!!!
I don't think I miss my users though! Now if I could be allowed to get one with my work without them.... :laugh:

We will see what @Shaun says. I'm not certain if he is at the limit or not, so we will have to wait and see... otherwise you will have to write yourself a batch file that names your files for you!

This isn't limited to our forum software and from what I can gather is an issue with flash uploaders (which allow you to upload multiple files at once).

You can turn off the flashuploader here at CC - just visit your account preferences: https://www.cyclechat.net/account/preferences - and untick the option and save changes:

Let me know if this sorts it?

Cheers,
Shaun :biggrin:

Seems you're right. Doesn't appear to change anything else. Except that once you've done you can still see all the files. Tried logging out & in, edit and new post and now I can see despite the upper case extensions. Looks like magic. Thanks. :bravo:

If you just renamed the *.JPEG file to *.jpeg, would that work?

It would (and this was one of the other suggestions widely made when I was searching for a fix), but it's a bit extreme asking someone to rename all their file extensions just so they can post images on your forum. :addict:

Cheers,
Shaun :biggrin:
