[Bug 1794724] Re: Can't upload images previously taken on Mobile device

 

Hi Alec,

In the Android video I don't see that you have a problem. When clicking
the 'Choose files' button there are options: Camera and Files. I'm
guessing the option Files would let you choose from the gallery of the
phone.

For the iPad, is it still the same issue as before? Is it still only
opening the camera or is it now only allowing to upload from gallery?

Regards,
Cecilia

Title:
  Can't upload images previously taken on Mobile device

Status in Mahara:

Status in Mahara 18.04 series:
  Confirmed
Status in Mahara 18.10 series:

Bug description:
  Hi All,

  After upgrading from 15.04 to 18.04 a fair amount of previous students
  have complained that they can no longer upload images when using
  Mahara from their mobile device. (Web, not app).

  Typically when uploading an image using image block, students would be
  prompted to choose if they wanted to capture an image or upload from
  their Gallery. This option seems to have disappeared and now opens
  camera without any prompt.

  I've managed to circumvent it slightly by instructing students to
  insert a Text block and from there insert an image from the Word
  Processing bar as a temporary measure.

  I tested on demo.mahara and this is persistent here also.

  # To replicate: (tested on iOS and Android)
  - Log into mahara on Smart phone
  - Open a page and click edit
  - Insert an image block
  - Select 'Choose image'
