Question Users cannot upload .JPG

Hey,

I'm finding that users are attaching image files to their posts that are uppercase (.JPG). The file uploads ok to the server, but will not show up in the post. There is just an "X" showing that the image is missing.

I looked into the settings, hoping to add JPG to the list of allowed files. Lowercase jpg is there. The info next to the allowed files says that they HAVE TO BE LOWERCASE.

So where does that leave me? surely there must be a way around this. It is a real pain having to download the files, editing names, and editing the post to include the images.

Thanks for any help!

Did you resolve this issue?

No, the problem is still there.

The problem that you are having may be complicated by using sh404SEF (which is something I know nothing about) or it may be resolved by fine-tuning your Joomla Global Configuration settings.

Although written for an older version of Joomla, you might start by looking at www.kunena.org/docs/How_to_add_new_image_format_for_attachments :unsure:

From my experience, 95% of the issues I have on my website are because of SH404sef. It truly does not play well with others. But, for some reason, I always leave it to the end to check - but, I will go look now and see if there is a setting I've missed.

Regarding the media settings - it doesn't apply to Joomla 2.5. I don't have that option any more...

Thanks for the suggestions.

Well, it isn't SH404sef. I've disabled it, and the issue continues. Anyone else having this issue?
