LastDodo site & app/bug adding in collection?27 messages

Adding a stack of comics to my collection suddenly encountered a problem.

When I click on the 'add' button, the item is not added to my collection but a next page opens with the message "Search - Please enter a search term of at least two characters".

It does not matter whether optional fields such as Purchase Date are filled in or not. The browser also makes no difference. Can this be checked please? I can no longer add any item to my collection.

Bug is known, but he'll put them in your collection as far as I know.

Ah, that's right. Thanks for passing that on.

Another bug is that my avatar changes to a default avatar on some pages (sometimes temporary, sometimes not).

Yes, goes wrong in galleries. Also known.

I have had a week now that I get the message when adding a new item:

One or more images could not be saved. Check if the format is correct.

The format is jpg and the images are not too large. I've already refreshed, logged out and back in and cleared browser history. Nothing helps. I work on a Mac with a browser Safari.

You are the only one so far. Have you ever cleared your cache?

Cache just cleared (should also be cleared when clearing browser history), but unfortunately - still same error.

It may be a problem with the jpg itself (one is not always the same as the other) .. or a bit fell over ..
Open it in win eg with the Photos (or similar for Mac), and then save it again with extension .jpg
And just maybe with mobile photos (datatype mismatch).

Maybe this info is of use to you?

@sleuth

I don't understand anything about this!

Photos edited and saved again. Also does not work. I'll give up and see if the site wants to cooperate again in a month or so.

@Sleuth

Understandably, you're a little frustrated, but apparently other users don't have the problems you're having with the images. Isn't there an expert in your area who can check if your editing program is doing something wrong somewhere?

Your usual input / changes are always of a very high level and I (we) would miss that very much.

@ Sleuth, could I help with that? Then I will send you a private message.

The problem was solved by considerably reducing the size of the files in Acrobat Pro (although they were already much less than the max 5 MB). Many thanks to Leike-w!

Would you like to report how big they were originally, as this is not okay.

I think I should respond best with no objection (tested).
The images are approximately 1.8Mb and 1.2Mb (so within the standard).
However, I will describe them as HR images for the sake of convenience.
resolution 560 dpi at a pixel size of 6600 (3600x6600 = 23,760,000) pixels.

ex. : Image 1 (1.8MB = 5229x6934pix 560dpi)

Well, I'm assuming for a moment that LD (ruby) uses a magick form, but I'm afraid
dat (I also tested them myself with upload, and also that error format message),
this heap of data that magick then has to process exceeds execution time / memory limits.

More technique: baseline jpg but behaves progressively ... (it builds up through pixel data over time); not fast.

Have given advice for next time to use max 4000 pixel format.
(less is certainly possible). So in short (programmers know better than I do (I'm guessing),
the images themselves are good, but too 'heavy' for LD.

Thank you for your explanation. Passed to the devs.

The problem was solved by significantly reducing the size of the files in Acrobat Pro

I don't understand that technical explanation, but Acrobat is a program for PDFs, why would you use that to resize a jpeg?

@ bookstore & gt; extract from digital (pdf) file. (but can also work with images, eg extract and save is a function)
A PDF is just a container, everything in it can be taken out again.

Technical explanation: do you still know those bibles of about 5 cm, but thick .. how did they get it in .... ;-) and so here the opposite way I put a state bible in the display box (without too much data loss )

Maar pdf is hier geen geaccepteerd bestandsformaat (voor upload), dus dat lijkt me omslachtiger dan nodig is. Ook niet belangrijk verder.

Ik hoop dat binnenkort een bewerkingsfunctie wordt ingebouwd voor afbeeldingen (zoals bij de Catawiki-veilingen al mogelijk was), zodat je ze op de site kunt kunt roteren, omwisselen, etc. Maar dat is weer een ander punt ;-)

But PDF is not an accepted file format here (for upload), so that seems more cumbersome than necessary. Also not important.

I hope an image editing function will soon be built in (as was already possible with the Catawiki auctions), so that you can rotate, swap, etc. on the site. But that is another point ;-)

No.

Was on the wish list, but is not really necessary anymore, the new site does that itself ...

Only books, or does he recognize the top of a coin?

No idea, I'm still gaining knowledge about it. Personally, I don't like too much thinking systems. And I don't want image 2 of the reverse prints to be messed up either.

I've already seen it work at Books, Comics, Stamps, Teabags ...

When adding to the search list I sometimes get the message "Please enter a search term of at least two characters"

Sometimes nothing happens and sometimes I go to add to search to my search list.
but under no circumstances will the article be added to my wish list.

I was also unable to add to collection or shop yet.

Hmm excuse, I just saw 5x Zusje - Hoochbegaaft in my search list, it is only under books instead of comics.
