Joomla-cms: [com_fields] image list field does not show svg

[coolcat-creations]

Steps to reproduce the issue

Setup the Media Manager Options to Allow svg, add svg suffix and Mimetype.
Upload the svg Files.

Set up an imagelist Field with the directory you uploaded the svg to.
The svgs are not displayed.

Edit: Same for Media-Field should i create a seperate issue for that?

[dgrammatiko]

You need to go to media manager options and manually add the svg type. It is not in the lists for security reason

[coolcat-creations]

I did, as said in the description of the issue. As you see in the first screenshot they are displayed in the Mediamanager itself...

[Bakual]

Same for Media-Field should i create a seperate issue for that?

It's the same issue if it exists.

[laoneo]

To allow only images is hard coded in the field itself https://github.com/joomla/joomla-cms/blob/staging/libraries/joomla/form/fields/imagelist.php#L40. Don't know if we should break up that filter and use the media manager setting instead.

[coolcat-creations]

I think we should always use existing settings, also ACL is based on MM...

[laoneo]

The things is that the form field doesn't have any dependency to the media manager and also should not have. What we can do is to make this value as a parameter of the field itself.

[coolcat-creations]

So it´s not dependant of the ACL of the Extension the field is using?

[laoneo]

No ACL is involved. Actually the list of allowed files is hardcoded. But we can make it configurable and then set it in custom fields from the media manager. I'm talking about this setting here

[coolcat-creations]

yes that would be very helpful, thank you!

[laoneo]

Is it somehow possible to assign that issue to me. Actually I don't have time to fix it, but it is no release blocker, so we can do it also in a later release.

[ghost]

can you give a 3.8-Milestone so it don't get lost?

[laoneo]

3.8 should be only router but I guess I can do it in 3.7.1 or so

[ghost]

added Build 3.7.1 in Issue Tracker.

[mbabker]

Build on the tracker should be the version the issue was reported against, not a projected version where an issue is fixed.

[ghost]

set on "staging".

@laoneo don't know if / how to assign it to you – @mbabker? Can set "related to Issue" if this helps.

[mbabker]

1) You can't do assignments through the tracker, we aren't wired up to work with the assignees field on GitHub

2) Assignees on GitHub is only team members with access to a repository, so even if we had that integration you can't assign this to Allon because he's not in a team with access to this repo

thanks for Info @mbabker

@laoneo you might find this useful https://github.com/darylldoyle/svg-sanitizer

[dgrammatiko]

@N6REJ yep: https://github.com/joomla/joomla-cms/pull/13499

[N6REJ]

@dgt41 webp is amazing! You need to think about when to use it on which image but MAN DOES IT MAKE A HUGE DIFFERENCE.

[wilsonge]

I'm going to close this as a more specific example of #14356

[coolcat-creations]

So now both are closed?

[wilsonge]

Sorry I linked to this issue by mistake. I meant to link to https://github.com/joomla/joomla-cms/issues/16795

[coolcat-creations]

But #16795 is about the media manger. this ist about com_fields - and those have independant settings like @laoneo states above.

[mbabker]

It is the same root problem at the end of the day.

[coolcat-creations]

So we close all the issues regarding this and leave none open?

[wilsonge]

https://github.com/joomla/joomla-cms/issues/16795 is still open and will not be closed

[coolcat-creations]

16795 does not show the same issue.It's regarding existing images that are already uploaded and not shown. #16795 is an issue about uploading.

[hendrikbehncke]

I'd really like to open this issue again. Like explained already, issue #16795 is not related to this here.
In this issue here it is about the media field that does not allow to pick svg image files that are already uploaded and available on the server. The filter what is considered to be an image file is hard coded to the media field in https://github.com/joomla/joomla-cms/blob/staging/libraries/joomla/form/fields/imagelist.php#L40
The Media Manager in Joomla already allows to upload svg image files and if uploaded it does also show these files. Why not allow these files to be picked in the form media field?

[sokoloff-rv]

When you select an image through a field with the type "media", SVG format files are not displayed. Will this be fixed in the future?
