GD-ImageMagick conflict...I think...maybe
Posted: 2016-06-23T23:13:55-07:00
I am trying to do some legwork for the guys building my site.
We're using Sell Media in building a micro stock site. The images are stored on S3, thumbnails with watermark are being created with ImageMagick and copies are kept on S3 and the local server. The first, and lesser, of the problems we're having is GD is creating its own thumbnails (without watermark) which can sometimes replace the ones created by IM (watermarked).
The more troublesome problem we're having is apparently due to the same conflict. We're trying to find a profile plugin that works with our setup, which is to say we're not able to attach any profile pictures. Specifically, we get a 403 Forbidden error (.../wp-content/plugins/userpro/lib/fileupload/fileupload.php 403 (Forbidden) ) whenever we try to upload a pic. The example I've shown happens to be with UserPro installed, but it happens with any profile plugin we've tried. (The makers of Ultimate Member state their plugin requires GD.)
We need to figure out a way to get the profile pictures to stick. If anyone has any ideas, please let me know and I'll pass them along.
Thanks
