description image issue

[Frank Vèssia]

I'm freaking out with this piece of code, cannot find the problem here, I just want to edit the description of an image.

if ($input->urlSegment1!=''){
    $action = $input->urlSegment1;
    $action = explode("-",$action);
    $userID = (int)$action[1];
    $m = $users->get($userID);
    if($m->id){
        $m->of(false);
        if ($action[0]=='accept'){
            $m->imageverify->first()->description = "verified";
            $m->addRole("verified");
        }elseif ($action[0]=='reject'){
            $m->imageverify->first()->description = "rejected";
        }
        $m->save();
        $m->of(true);
        $session->redirect("/backend/",false);
    }
}
 

The description remains as it is, any change....

Perhaps the imageverify Image field is set as a single file? I can image it won't work with ->first.

Basic question: Are you sure the user is found?

Debug mode on and no error messages?

I've already debugged all...any error, all the variables are ok
@arjen: according to what Ryan said: "When output formatting is OFF then your images field will always behave as an array. The single-image reference (with setting 1) is primarily for front-end syntactic convenience so that you can do echo $page->image->url rather than $page->image->first()->url. But behind the scenes, it's still always an array. "

@wanze: I check the user with if($m->id) ...

@WillyC: I didn't understand anything but adding the trackChange now the code works. Thank you so much!!

@sevarf2: You hit the same bug I did a while back . See here: https://github.com/ryancramerdesign/ProcessWire/issues/147

So you can either:

1) use trackChange() like WillyC showed you or

2) force the save of (only) the imagefield with $m->save('imageverify') or

3) update to a more recent version of PW where this bug has been fixed (dev branch) and use plain old $m->save() like you were trying to in the first place.

Didn't know that. Thanks!
