Changing User Profile img does not stick until you logout and log back in. #59

Maybe try and re assign the session['user'] via a get user call to the api, this way the user does not need to log out for the local user info to get updated

This is actually an issue with all account update features --- I will add a session refresh method to the template render application which can be easily called from any update method

andrewalexgit commented 5 years ago

Seems like we already have a refresh for the session added

session["user"]["avatarUrl"] = form["avatarURL"]

Could this be an issue with browser cache?

Yes, it is. We need to pop the current user img from the cookie and re-assign the new one. This means we need to call the db to get the updated user, and just fish out the new URL
