No upload limit #1

Closed bobdesaunois closed 10 years ago

You can upload more than 1 homework file by furiously clicking the thing. So put a limit on that.

Furiously clicking?

bobdesaunois commented 10 years ago

The user friendly button fixed that, you could upload a file multiple times by furiously clicking upload. The problem now is just that you can just press previous page and upload again. So that needs a fix.

samaten commented 10 years ago

Great.

Just a suggestion: Create a lite upload system that allows people to upload multiple files at a time.

bobdesaunois commented 10 years ago

That's called zipping everything up to then upload the .zip

samaten commented 10 years ago

Yes, that works too but it'd create a better user experience if you could attach multiple files at once individually. It's easier for the uploader to manage and that way the downloader has a choice of either downloading one, some, or all of the files.

Just saying, even when minimalism is key we want to ensure that there's a good user experience. I'm sure it doesn't have to be made anyway, I can search for an alternative solution.

It would mean a total re-do on the database table for homework, all upload methods in all controllers and quite a bit of re-routing in all of the models. And need for a whole new bulk-encryption system.

This'll be something for when we catch some big attention.

samaten commented 10 years ago

Agreed.

This issue has been (accidentally) solved by the user friendly upload button.
