Just a comment on the implementation. It is a shame this was implemented in the view (function pieform_element_filebrowser_upload) and not in the base file artefact class (i.e. ArtefactTypeFile::save_uploaded_file method).
If a user has enabled image resizing then ArtefactTypeFile::save_uploaded_file should resize the image on save automatically. What has been implemented is a Fix to the web-form only - the biggest culprit to uploading oversized images may be mobile devices (as the mobile user often lacks the control to resize the content on the device) With this implementation the mobile API would need to reinvent the wheel. The endable resize config option does not actual resize all uploaded content. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mahara Contributors, which is subscribed to Mahara. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/717184 Title: Resize images at upload time Status in Mahara ePortfolio: Fix Committed Bug description: I'm aware that the roadmap for 1.4 mentions resizing images on the fly for use in Views, however, I feel that it would be more appropriate to resize images when they are uploaded as this would avoid using too much of a user's quota. The way I envisage this is that the site administrator sets a maximum size and any image larger than this is automatically resized. Perhaps also there could be a checkbox when uploading to override this, in the rare case that an image needs to be full-resolution.
