Hi,

I moved a new site I've just completed to PHP version 7.4 but when I tried to add an image to a K2 item under the image tab, it failed to upload. I tried other images and they failed too. There was a warning message but unfortunately it was behind the 'Item saved' message so unable to read it all - see attachment.

I tried logging in from Chrome (I was using Firefox) and that didn't help.

I reverted the site back to PHP 7.2 and tried again, and it then worked fine and the image was uploaded.

Joomla version is 3.9.12
K2 version is 2.10.2

Many thanks
Jennie

Hi Fotis

I've not installed any third party k2 extensions, this is just a basic site and I wanted to use k2 for a blog. I've attached the FPA report if that helps.

It could just be that I need to enable a PHP setting in cPanel maybe? I've also attached screenshot of settings. I enabled the 2 under 'N' as previously when I tried to switch to 7.4 on a Joomla site it didn't work at all. A search suggested this fix but I only just got around to trying it.

I have another site I can test this on which is currently running on 7.4.

Many thanks
Jennie

PS I have tested on the other site and same problem occurs.

Thank you Fotis,

Enabling the GD php extension sorted this.

I love the way you think that I would know which ones were not needed! I've searched for a list of recommended php extensions for Joomla but got nowhere. I did find one for Wordpress! Even where there are tooltips explaining it, it doesn't make me any the wiser! I tried enabling one that looked like it would be needed, but it refused saying it would conflict. I think I'd have to google every one, maybe when I have a spare afternoon, ahem!

I've never had to touch these before, the default setup always seems to have worked in the past.

Thank you for your help
Best wishes
Jennie

Hi Fotis! I've the similar problem in php 7.2 and 7.3 width GD activate. (k2 2.10.3)

In IMAGE TAB: select image from the server > give me this error:
"The image was not uploaded. Please ensure that you used a valid image file and that file uploads are properly configured on your server."

Can you helpme here or i need to open other post?

Thanks for your time!

UPDATE >> I updagrade to 2.10.4 and the error persist!
Probed into php 7.2 and 7.3

Hi Fotis! I understand your answer but the uploads to the server work without problems, both in the Image tab "selecting image from the pc", and in the JCE image editor. The problem only appears when I select an image already uploaded to the server to be the main image of the article.
Regards

Thanks Fotis! We didnt see errors, only warnings:

Fotis, I attached the video in this link:

Thanks!

I'm on 2.10.4, Fotis! Has it changed in the last week?

See in my second post #177589 >
UPDATE >> I updagrade to 2.10.4 and the error persist! Probed into php 7.2 and 7.3

OK I will do it! Thanks

I ask you: is it possible that your add some changes for everyone?

1/ In View>Item>tmpl > Change the image tag "summary" of the Twitter card to: "summary_large_image"? I have read that other users also requested it.

2/ In Administrator, mod k2 stats > the time is incorrect, it is "K2_DATE_FORMAT" (broked the hours and minutes) but it will be: "K2_DATE_FORMAT_LC2"

These are two changes that I always make manually every time I update k2 in my sites! ;)
