Kunena 7.0.2 Released

The Kunena team has announce the arrival of Kunena 7.0.2 [K 7.0.2] in stable which is now available for download as a native Joomla extension for J! 5.3.x/5.4.x/6.0.x. This version addresses most of the issues that were discovered in K 6.2 / K 6.3 / K 6.4 and issues discovered during the last development stages of K 7.0

This category is for the module developed, endorsed, maintained and supported by the Kunena project team. The topics in this category only relate to the plugin developed for K 3.0 and later versions.

If you are having problems then, for your own benefit, it would save us all a lot of time if you would kindly post your configuration report when you ask for help from this forum. If you do not post your configuration report we will not ask you for it but you will probably not get your problem solved, either.

Question Avatar Resize Failure

Hello,

I'm using the Kunena latest module to show the latest posts, and I have it set to show Avatars with 100% quality with Bicubic resizing method from a gallery. All the gallery images are the same size, transparent PNGs. They display fine when full size and in the jComments latest comments module, but in the Kunena Latest Module, they either get a black background added to them, or they have 3/4 quadrants rendered and the last one transparent.

Example:

Resized

Original

Any idea what's causing this?

they either get a black background


The black color is adopted from the alpha channel.
For such simple pictures you don't need Bicubic resizing method. Is more suitable for photos. Use Interpolation.

I switched the configuration back to Interpolation, cleared cache, and deleted the subfolder in /media/kunena/avatars/resized/size36/gallery that contained the avatars. A new folder was created and the avatars were resized again, however the issue still persists - there is a chunk missing from the top left corner.

Another example:

You have also uploaded the avatar again? The resize happens during the upload.

They are Gallery avatars, not user-uploaded avatars. I deleted the folder containing them in /media/kunena/avatars/gallery and re-uploaded. This reset all the avatars to default. I went to my profile and selected one from the newly uploaded gallery, and the same issue occurred again in the Kunena Latest Module.

Yes I have seen it now. Your image is corrupt. Use this image and it will work.
