[Bug 1710155] Re: Automatic resizing of images option can be displayed to users when functionality is disabled.
Thanks for the report, Rob.
I suggest the following: When image resizing is set to "No", the "User
option" switch is set to "No" automatically as well and greyed out so it
can't be changed.
That should take care of all that.

Title:
Automatic resizing of images option can be displayed to users when
functionality is disabled.
Status in Mahara:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Using version 16.10.4
Under Plugin administration:artefact:file:file > Resize images on
upload, if "User option" is set to Yes, but "Resize large images
automatically" is set to No, an option will be displayed to users
appearing to allow them to choose to have images resized
automatically. Images will not be resized, though, and failure is
silent (no warning or error displayed).
It seems reasonable to expect that, if a checkbox is displayed to end
users for an option, checking this box should be sufficient to enable
that option.
It's unclear whether this is a bug. However, I recommend that one of
the following changes should be made:
* No checkbox should be displayed to the user unless "Resize large images automatically" has been set by the administrator, or:
* A user checking the checkbox should be sufficient to enable resizing of the image that they are currently uploading.
If the former change is chosen, I suggest that text displayed on the
plugin admin screen should be updated to reflect this, and/or the
"User option" setting should be disabled unless "Resize large images
automatically" is enabled.
