Thread: uploading images fails in Chrome on iOS7 on iPhone 5

uploading images fails in Chrome on iOS7 on iPhone 5

I tested a ClassiPress site using the Chrome browser on an iPhone 5 running iOS7.

When posting a new ad, I was able to add images using the "Flash" image uploader.

However, I was unable to add images using the "Browser" image uploader. When I clicked the "Browse..." button, the device launched the camera, I took a photo with it, and ClassiPress uploaded it and displayed the file name. So far so good. However, after I clicked "Confirm" to go to the next step of the ad posting process, I got an error page saying:

An Error Has Occurred

image.jpg is not a valid image type (.gif, .jpg, .png). Please go back and upload a different image.

("Go back" button)

Questions:

1. Have any of you tested uploading photos on Chrome on an iPhone 5 running iOS7?
2. Why do you think it fails when using the "Browser" method?

Test environment:

• Page: Add New (Step 1)
• Device: iPhone 5
• Operating System: iOS7
• Web Browser: Chrome
• Other Details: HTTPS enabled on the page
• ClassiPress version: 3.3.1
• WordPress version: 3.7

Sound familiar? I recently posted a similar (but not the same) bug regarding Safari (instead of Chrome), here: http://forums.appthemes.com/report-c...60/#post286201
