Hello all, I’m using carddavmate and caldavzap for a long time, and I recently uncovered an issue: When I modify my contacts from infcloud, some of my pictures, the ones that get stored in png, have a field that looks like: ----- PHOTO;ENCODING=b;TYPE=png:data:image/png;base64,iVBO(...) ----- when exported. It seems like this kind of formatting is not supported, so I guess it’s not a standard one: when synchronizing with other clients, like the stock android app or khard, they crash or are unable to display the picture.
As soon as I remove the "data:image/png;base64," part of the field, it starts working again. Is it an issue with infcloud? Note that it used to work for a long time without any issue, and quite recently I simultaneously upgraded and migrated from caldavzap+carddavmate to infcloud. I’m not absolutely sure what changed, but maybe it will ring a bell to some of you?
Kind regards,

Hi Ján, Thanks a lot for this patch! Are non-released code available somewhere? I didn’t see any repository or so on the website.
Kind regards,

Hi again Ján, I confirm that the patch worked, thanks Do you know if there is a way to mass-edit-an-save all contacts that I have? (I have hundreds of them, it’s a bit difficult to edit them all one by one) I’m at ease with the web dev console and javascript, I just need a bit of guidance with where the data are in InfCloud.

Hi Ismael,
sorry but there is no mass-edit action (there is no such thing in the CardDAV specification). I recommend you to edit the data on the server (e.g. by a combination of SQL UPDATE with a regex).

Hi Ján, I was afraid there were no such thing, but modifing the data on the server didn’t exactly achieve what I want.
Here is what I got in the end, to run in the web console, in case it would be useful to anyone: ---- for (contact of window.globalAddressbookList.contacts) { if (contact.uid && contact.accountUID && contact.etag) { window.globalAddressbookList.loadContactByUID(contact.uid); window.dataToVcard(contact.accountUID, contact.uid, globalRefAddContact.attr('data-filter-url'), contact.etag); } } ----
Thanks a lot for your help!
