Account Create Workflow Needs Image Type Filtering

Open tparikka opened this issue 5 years ago • 3 comments

When going through the account create workflow I specified a JFIF file as my image (I copied it from my Slack profile and they use that extension), and it caused the login workflow to lock up until I refreshed the page, renamed the file to .JPG and uploaded it. If only certain file types are allowed the upload dialog should specify and filter for accepted extensions.

@csell5 which direction do you want this to go in?

  • Limiting the file types that are accepted for profile images.
    • What file types do you want to support?
  • Troubleshooting why the JFIF caused the lockup and attempting to support that image type?

In Safari 13.0.5 for MacOS 10.15.3, I am unable to upload a PNG file. I can upload all 3 file types in Firefox and Chrome, latest versions.

I believe the above change may work in Safari but unable to test in my current environment. If this is still causing issues, may need to look at another way around.
