Images saved in Database causes very long loading times

Post by kay.goldinger »

Hi

As it seems all Images uploaded by TinyMCE are getting encoded to embedded base64 Images and saved into the database instead of being saved as traditional files unter the "Images" folder. This leads to massive loading times if the faqs contain several pictures. Further the faqdata Table gets cluttered with base64 Pictures, which leads to long update/ upgrade times if a new version is installed.

Is this the expected behavior? Is there anything I can do to change the way images are handled?

Oh not to forget... Installed Version at the moment is 3.2.7

thanks in advance and best Regards!
Kay

Hi,

this was fixed in one of the latest 3.2.x releases.

You should upgrade to v4.0 as 3.2 is out of support.

Hi Thosten

thanks for the info, I'm in the process of generating the new templates for 4.0.
Glad to hear that this issue will be gone as soon as I'm ready to upgrade.

best regards
Kay
