    Remove query string from image paths

    Hi, I am having issues with image files on iOS devices. The query string that Umbraco 8 places at the end of an image url is preventing these images displaying on iOS devices. Seems fine on other devices.

    for example: /media/zzyljno0/calculator-and-pen-225.jpg?width=225&height=166

    In Umbraco 7, the same image would render fine, with the query string present: for example: /media/1223/calculator-and-pen-225.jpg?width=225&height=166

    Please can someone let me know how to prevent this query string from being added to the image path. When I remove it (manually in Dev tools, for example), the images is rendered correctly.

    Has anyone else had this issue?

    Thank you,

    Kind regards,

    Pete

    Hi Peter,

    Can you elaborate? The query string parameters cause the image to go through Image Processor and resize/crop/edit the image which is then cached. Without the query string the raw image is served up so if the image was 12MB, the whole 12MB image would be returned.

    Have you, by some chance, added a new crop to the Image Cropper data type and the images that are having issues are images that already existed?

    Nik

    Hi Nik, Thank you for your reply. When I test the pages, on my old iPhone, and also on Browserstack, on various iterations of iOS devices, incuding iPads, there is an outline for the image, but just a blank area on the page where the image should be rendered. The message coming back from the Dev tools is as follows (when i remove the query string in Dev tools, the image appears) One thing I have thought about is removing the FiftyOne mobile detection, to see if its that, I'll give that a go:

    Hi again Nik, Yes, that is it. We use FiftyOne degrees free version to aid mobile detection, looking at the config file for it, I deactivated the image optimisation, and bingo, the images appeared.

    Kind regards, Pete
