New Feature: Ask an Expert Photo Upload
By popular demand, Ask an Expert now supports image upload. This brand new feature allows people to submit up to three images with their question. They can also submit additional images in any AaE follow-up responses. Image upload is live on the Ask an Expert form on the Public Site (with a new, cleaner design) at extension.org/ask.
It’s also available for the Ask an Expert Widgets (only one photo can initially be uploaded with widgets). To get image upload for your widget, you need to opt-in to the feature on your widget admin page: http://www.extension.org/widgets/aae/list (login required)
We hope this new feature makes it easier to answer questions that have a visual component. If you’ve got comments or questions about image upload you can comment here on this post or drop us an email to feedback@extension.org. thanks!
HI Ben,
I checked the button ‘Add Image Upload’ button for all the Minnesota Garden Info Widgets. I was surprised to see the widgets change instantly on the MN website (well, with one refresh of my browser). I thought I was going to have to reinstall the code on the website. I’m sure others will appreciate how easy you made this.
Here is what it looks like in MN: http://www.extension.umn.edu/gardeninfo/components/questions_askmg.html
Thanks!
