[CB_Gallery] Rerun media type detection

Hello Krileon,
I hope you are well!

I have a question regarding the media type selection.
On my website, there are two ways to upload a file:

• Via the Community builder gallery
• Via the Community builder registration API

I have noticed that for the first option, everything works.
But for the second (Community builder registration API), when a user creates an account and attaches a file in the same process, the media type is not detected.
This means that the file in the gallery has its name without the extension.
This is a problem because when a file has no extension, there is no “download” button for it in the CB_gallery front-end.

Can you help?
Thank you very much,

Hugues

Hi Hugues,

Not sure what you mean by "registration API" ?

I'm not able to reproduce: When I try uploading a file without valid extension I get an error (see attachment, taken from our demo website by making the canvas field displayed on registration).

 

Hello,
We are using the community Builder Registration API to write the uploaded filepaths on the user profile in combination with autoaction to create the Gallery Folder + Files.
Could you just explain what are the rules for the file media upload system to determine whether the file will be downloadable or not?
Thank you

I can't advise you on paid products without an active subscription. I'm guessing there's an implementation detail with your registration usage where you're generating the CB Gallery items that isn't working quite right.
