Can't upload image to server for embedding in custom pages
3 years 9 months ago
When I try to upload an image from my desktop to the FTH server in order to select and embed it in a custom webpage, I get the following errors:
- "Image source URL is missing" appears in a dialog prompt.
- :Whoops! Looks like some work is being done on the server at the moment. This should be resolved in just a moment.Please try your page again in a few minutes.
Where Leaders Are MadeFreeToastHost Website Support is available at: support.toastmastersclubs.org/ " appears under "Send it to the Server" on the "Upload" tab when inserting an image.

Did you try again after a few minutes? Do you still have the problem?

I've attached the Toastmasters images, range from 6.7 - 8.8MB, to insert on each tab of our
supplemental learning page

The "Whoops!" error should be eliminated now.
As far as images being too big, you need to consider what size they will need to actually be in the viewed content. Our system code automatically scales down images that are bigger than the viewable space *after* they have been successfully uploaded. However, if your file size is being blocked as too big by the uploader (it checks file sizes), then the scaling code will never get ran. You will likely need to scale down the size of the images manually in this case.
