Nicolas, you can also try emailing me the photo at [email protected] and I can try testing

Actually, now that I think about it, have you downloaded a small test JPG/PNG from elsewhere on the web and tried uploading as a test?

IBJoel

Thank you for your message.

Yes, I’ve tried with a test JPG/PNG from elsewhere on the web, and the issue remains the same.

That said, I noticed that I can upload my photo when accessing “My Albums” in the Flyertalk interface (not the iPhone pictured albums).

This leads me to think that FlyerTalk may have a limit on the total number of images posted

https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...8ac609cfe.jpegAs agreed, I will send the photos via an iCloud link.

Thank you for your efforts in trying to resolve this issue, and wishing you a Happy New Year!

Test. Seems to be working on my end.
I don't know of any restrictions we have on number of photos uploaded (and at the moment you have sort of an arbitrary number)
Maybe there's a total data limit to albums, I can ask tech
With the link you sent me, you were only trying to upload one or a few of the photos at a time, correct? Not all 83?

IBJoel Thank you for your response.

However, I’d like to clarify a few points as the issue persists:

1. If you are able to upload the photos on your end, it clearly indicates that the problem is not with the photos themselves, as I have been trying to emphasise. I have had no issues with any other uploads since.

2. The limit I mentioned does not refer to the number of photos per post (which is set at 100). Rather, I was referring to a possible total limit of photos uploaded by a single account across different posts.

3. As I highlighted earlier, I am able to upload photos directly from my Flyertalk albums without issue. How does that reconcile with the problem I’m experiencing?

4. More importantly, how do we move forward? The root cause of the issue remains unclear, and I’d like to work towards a resolution.

Could you please confirm if there is indeed a total data limit for accounts , as you mentioned you’d check with tech?

Your assistance in clarifying this and helping resolve the matter would be much appreciated.

Looking forward to your feedback.

Nicolas

I will also note an upload limit of JPEGs at 7MB and 1500px width, 2000px height. How many are you trying to upload at a time? You said you tried with just one/a couple, correct?

Dear IBJoel

I keep saying it – I have not changed the format of my photos, which have never caused any issues before.

If you take the time to review the posts I’ve contributed to (as the main contributor of this post, you will clearly see that I’ve never had any trouble uploading photos.

Given how this matter has been dragging on with little regard for contributors, I am seriously considering ceasing to add value to FlyerTalk and instead publishing my reviews on a personal internet site.

Have fun!

I have always added picture to a post from "My Albums". I usually upload pictures in the album and then add them to a post from "My Albums". The other two options have never really worked for me.

I did not ask if you changed anything. Please answer my questions and these ones you also missed:

• Have your cleared your cache/cookies?
• Disabled all blocking software/plug-ins?
• Disabled any VPNs?
• Tried a different browser?

Dear IBJoel

Thank you for your message.

I would like to respond to each of your questions in the order you posed them, while also clarifying why these suggested causes seem unlikely given the context of this issue:

1. Have I cleared my cache/cookies?

Yes, I have cleared the cache and cookies on both my iPhone and PC. However, since the problem persists across multiple devices and browsers, it is unlikely that this is related to cached data.

2. Have I disabled all blocking software/plug-ins?

I am not using any ad blockers or similar plug-ins that could interfere with the upload process. Moreover, given that I have successfully uploaded thousands of photos under the same conditions in the past, it is clear that such interference is not a factor.

3. Have I disabled any VPNs?

I am not using a VPN. The issue occurs regardless of the network (5G, home Wi-Fi, office, hotel Wi-Fi), which rules out VPN-related interference.

4. Have I tried a different browser?

Yes, I have tried multiple browsers, including Safari, Chrome, and Edge, across different devices. The issue remains the same.



Additionally, as I have pointed out earlier, the fact that I can upload photos into my Flyertalk albums but not into posts suggests that the problem is not on my side. The discrepancy strongly indicates a potential backend issue or a specific limitation affecting my account.



To help move forward, I would suggest using my account to replicate the issue. Since you haven’t been able to reproduce the problem on your end, this approach could help determine whether the issue is related to account-level restrictions or specific permissions.



I have invested a significant amount of time trying to resolve this issue, which prevents me from contributing valuable content, particularly my hotel reviews.

I appreciate your willingness to engage with tech on this, and I kindly ask that you escalate the matter to ensure we can find a solution.

Thank you in advance for your continued efforts. I look forward to your feedback.

Thank you for giving me permission to do that. I logged in as you, attempted photo upload, got to 50% and it failed. I screen recorded myself doing this via every upload avenue and will include in my tech report with high priority.

Very happy that nicolas75 "temperamental" uploader UX has been fixed.
Where would i be, without my friendly rival at the IHG-board....& my inspiration!
Glad you're back :star:

Great news.
