Croppie Extended - Image Crop

Not only is it the best image cropping plugin on the Plugin Marketplace to date but also the developer provided quick and effective support by fixing stuff and even adding a new feature when I asked for it for my use case (the ability to load both original and cropped images).

I love how the cropping tool looks and feels, and once I got it working, I love how it works too. However, it took me forever to figure out how to get the resulting cropped image saved to Bubble Storage and be saving the URL to that file in my database, but I think I have it now. It is confusing that there are two places in the various workflows where you can choose yes or no for upload, and it isn't clear why one doesn't overrule the other. It also isn't clear WHAT you are uploading or to where. When I tried saving the Cropped Image (not Cropped Image Save) to Bubble Storage, the resulting link had AWS info in the url and a time out date. I think saving the Cropped Image Save (which evaluates to a URL) to the database is a URL to the image in Bubble's Storage. Or I hope it is, because it seems to be working that way. And for others coming across this, I set upload to "no" in the initializer action, but "yes" in the setup. No clue why it works that way, but it does.

Great plugin - 1) Upload Yes/No - On initialization, setting upload to "no" isn't turning off the upload arrow in the editor (so we can control the actual upload elsewhere in a workflow, etc.). 2) File Name Change - Is there a way to change the file name before uploading to the bubble AWS? If not could a field be added to do that? ;) 3) Events - It feels like there should be an event triggered when the bubble AWS URL is ready after the upload as I've had that appear to be empty in the following step in a work flow because I suspect they weren't ready yet (or if there's a way to "Use The Result from Step X" in a later step following an upload). An event triggered after the crop is confirmed/completed would also be helpful. 4) Connect to Database Thing - If fields/functionality could be added to optionally connect the returned bubble AWS url to a thing in the database as part of the upload that would also be great! 5) Customize Element Text - It would be great to have field to customize the element text ("Drop your image here") as dropping doesn't work on phones and we're rather say "Click here to select image" or something like that Thanks again for your help and for the great plugin.

Edit: Thank you for being responsive and adding this new documentation, I've modified my rating. Good looking plugin but there are some issues. - No documentation. Anyone know what the difference between 'Cropped Image Save' and 'Cropped Image' is? Through trial and error I've found that 'Cropped Image Save' is probably what you want. - The value 'Croppie Extended's / Cropped Image Save / URL' was giving me a 'Permission denied' error if I tried to upload to S3 or let an external API access it. If you get this, go to Data > Privacy > User > Enable view attached files. And /encoded in base64 returns empty.

By far the best cropping plugin if you're looking for a simple but delightful crop UX out-of-the-box. I am having issues running the plugin when uploading photos from an iPhone. Certain images won't trigger the editor. Curious if this is a file format issue being that iphone images may be saved as HEIC Any chance I could get support on this?
