Another Bug in 2.3.7? Avatars (General)

Hi,

my test-case: I use two jpg images (one is a modification of the other one).

  • went to my profile settings
  • clicked 'edit avatar'
  • uploaded image 1
  • close the popup
  • the new avatar is shown
  • clicked 'edit avatar'
  • clicked delete avatar in pop up box
  • chose image 2
  • clicked save
  • close the popup
  • refresh profile settings via F5 --> the old one is shown (because of my browser cache)
  • refresh profile settings via [ctrl]+[F5] --> the new one is shown

and refresh the profile page I see the older image.

HOW do you refresh the page? Do you really use the keys-combination [CTRL]+[F5]?

Could it be something to do with the script that automatically changes the size of the avatar?

Hmm, maybe, but we don't change the code in this part of the software. Maybe smarty (the template engine) cached the image size too. Anyway, can you confirm that you used the suggested keys-combination [CTRL]+[F5] to refresh the page?

I've tried a completely fresh install of opera and the moment you change your profile image for the second time it messes up.

No, don't do it! It is not a problem with your browser software, it is a feature of any browser to cache the page to reduce traffic. So, if you reinstall your browser, nothing will changed.

/Micha
