Detailed Image Plug-in	Can't Post

Hi Andy,

I know you're nearly down under with all the work at the moment but I was wondering :
Would it be possible to modify the Thumb Images plug-in to make it into a Detailed Images plug-in so that I could add another image that would be down as the Detailed Image in the edit details for a link and then I can place it where I want on the detailed page.

By the way I've just installed the Build_Detailed plug-in and I hadn't thought of using the detailed pages system but with your plug-in the site has just acquired a great new function. Cheers.

You can do that already =)

With your image field setup (in the plugin), set the image fields to something like;

Code

ImageField1,Screenshot1,DetailedImage2 ...etc

.. .and then just setup these additional fields in your LinksSQL admin panel, as you would normally.

Hope that helps.

Re: [Andy] Detailed Image Plug-in [In reply to]	Can't Post

So I would have another field that would appear in the link's edit area ? and I would be able to upload a second image that would also be thumbnailed, but I suppose that it would have to be the same size as the first one ? or can I modify that somehow ?

I'd have Screenshot that was 150x111
And
DetailedImage that was 200x144

So Just by adding an extra name in the "ImageFields" I can create another image but how do I tell it that I want the second reduced to a different size.

Hi,

Exactly. On a site I just setup, we have 20 image fields and counting. Thats the great thing about how LSQL works :)

Ah... you can't have different sizes. I'll look at getting this featured added in (i.e in the field setup, you put in something like "FieldName::50x50,ImageField2::150,100" ... etc.

In terms of a hack, which version are you using? It should be possible to add in a couple of lines of code, so that it knows if its working on a specific image field, then it needs to thumnail to a different specification.

Version 2.1 of Thumb_Images, or 2.1 of LinksSQL? (there are several versions :p 2.1.0, 2.1.1, 2.1.2 and 2.1.3.). I need both the LinksSQL version, and Thumb_Images version please :-)

Sorry hard night, I'm using 2.2.0 of Links SQL and it says 2.1 (everywhere I can see) for Thumb Images.

Ok, cool. In Thumb_Images.pm, please all instances of;

Code

&do_shrink($ReadImage,$WriteImage,$ID);

..and replace with;

Code

&do_shrink($ReadImage,$WriteImage,$ID,$_);

Then, find the routine "do_shrink", and find;

Code

my $_GetDimensions     = $cfg->{'GetDimensions'};

...replace ADD BELOW the following;

Code

if ($_[3] eq 'FieldName') { $_PercentageSmaller = '100x50'; }

Obviously, you need to change "FieldName" to whatever the name of your field is, as well as the dimensions you want to use :)

It should then just work with a "Cleanup" being run.

Andy Sorry I'm finding simple things difficult today :

I only found this once and replace it but was worried since you say all instances I may be missing something :

Code

 &do_shrink($ReadImage,$WriteImage,$ID);

Then :

Code

 my $_GetDimensions     = $cfg->{'GetDimensions'};

...replace ADD BELOW the following;

Code

 if ($_[3] eq 'FieldName') { $_PercentageSmaller = '100x50'; }

when you write "replace" I'm not sure whether to replace my $_GetDimensions = $cfg->{'GetDimensions'}; but I feel like I should keep it.
Finally where I see PercentageSmaller ='100x50' what does this do ?

Thanks, John

Re: [jag] Detailed Image Plug-in [In reply to]	Can't Post

Sorry, the first replacement varies.

The 3 variatations I could find were;

Code

&do_shrink($ReadImage,$WriteImage,$highest_id); 
&do_shrink($ReadImage,$WriteImage,$hit->{ID}); 
&do_shrink($ReadImage,$WriteImage,$_ID);

Just add ,$_ into all of these, so they look something like;

Code

&do_shrink($ReadImage,$WriteImage,$highest_id,$_); 
&do_shrink($ReadImage,$WriteImage,$hit->{ID},$_); 
&do_shrink($ReadImage,$WriteImage,$_ID,$_);

Code

when you write "replace" I'm not sure whether to replace my $_GetDimensions = $cfg->{'GetDimensions'}; but I feel like I should keep it.  
Finally where I see PercentageSmaller ='100x50' what does this do ?

Sorry, I mean't "add" (i.e below the variable declerations).

Been a pretty busy day :/

Re: [Andy] Detailed Image Plug-in [In reply to]	Can't Post

I have a problem in the admin area that the view or download links redirect to a new window with the admin panel homepage instead of redirecting to a new window with the image.

Also the second image is not being reduced in size it is the original size of 350K rather than 30K ?

Thanks, Jag

Afraid I can't do anything more to help unless I can have some kind of access to your installation. There is only a limit you can do in a forum :(

Thanks Andy for looking into this on my system. Just in case someone does something as silly as I did : I actually forgot to add the second image's name to the field in the plug-in configuration page to indicate that I wanted it to be reduced, hence the image being uploaded was kept at the original size Blush
