New IH group - can't update group icon.

by @ThePeterMick

Howdy folks.

🥳 So I've created a new IH Group called Music: https://www.indiehackers.com/group/music

I'm trying to update the group icon but when uploading one I get "Error updating icon" - it's a PNG icon from my (licensed) icons8 account.

Any ideas? I could not find any guidance for image type / resolution etc. The ones I tried were both PNG and square, 200px & 500px but none of them worked.

      Yes! It has never showed it to me though. Found a bug I guess?

        Similar issues has been reported several times. Believed to be related to some sort of image caching.

          Ah the cache...

          As someone once said:

          "Only two things are difficult in programming:

          • Naming things, and;
          • Cache invalidation"
            The rest is easy.
