How can I specify accurately the size of image to be uploaded in a ci4 application. I wanted to upload an image of 49.7kb but cannot because of size restriction.
How can I set the size to 5mb max? Currently I guess i set it to 5mb
My image rules are:
$profile_pix_validation_rule = [
'userfile' => [
'label' => 'Image File',
'errors' => ['max_size' => "Image size can be 10mb max"],
'rules' => [
'uploaded[passport_image]',
'mime_in[passport_image,image/jpg,image/jpeg,image/png]',
'max_size[profile_pix,5120]',
'max_dims[profile_pix,1024,768]',
],
],
];

Maybe this is because your field name is different.
$profile_pix_validation_rule = [
'passport_image' => [ // The correct field name
'label' => 'Image File',
'rules' => [
'uploaded[passport_image]', // The field name here should match the input name
'mime_in[passport_image,image/jpg,image/jpeg,image/png]', // Allowed mime types
'max_size[passport_image,5120]',
'max_dims[passport_image,1024,768]',
],
'errors' => [
'max_size' => 'Image size can be 5 MB max',
'uploaded' => 'Please upload an image file.',
'mime_in' => 'Only JPG, JPEG, and PNG files are allowed.',
'max_dims' => 'Image dimensions should not exceed 1024x768 pixels.',
]
],
];
Additionally, the form should created with enctype="multipart/form-data"
Example of form (basic html)
<form method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="file" name="passport_image">
<input type="submit" value="Upload">
</form>
And In php.ini
upload_max_filesize = 5M
post_max_size = 8M
max_execution_time = 300
max_input_time = 300
5
