Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_thumbpop - Thumbnail Image Gallery w/ popups

I rely heavily on this plugin and was wondering, whether it requires updating to work under 4.0.6 ?

I am using the plugin on two 4.0.6 sites, and it still works :)

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_thumbpop - Thumbnail Image Gallery w/ popups

I’m struggling to achieve the following:

From the documentation I gather that the plugin should be able to extract the image category to use for the gallery from any article field, such as a custom field, by using usearticle="1" and catfield="imagecat"

I have named my custom field “imagecat” and use this tag:

<txp:rss_thumbpop mode="float" jpop="1" fullontop="1" cols="99" usearticle="1" catfield="imagecat" addpermlink="0" showcaption="0"  />

I’ve also tried several variations, but to no avail: it always pulls up all images without category restriction. Did I perhaps misunderstand the instructions and is this just not possible?

Any help would be very much appreciated!

Cheers Martin

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_thumbpop - Thumbnail Image Gallery w/ popups

it doesn’t work by custom field name, but by its actual db column name (ie custom_2, custom_3 etc)

Thanks Steve,

I had actually tried that already, but no dice. So far I tested it on three different installations without success. Does this work for you?

I’m using the rss_thumbpop tag in the article body, but would like to move it to a form and just pick up the category from a custom field.

OK, I’ve just made one more attempt to get this working on a clean install of txp with nothing but rss_thumbpop loaded, but it just won’t work. If anyone has managed to get this working, I’d sure love to hear about it.

I’ll also contact Rob and see what he thinks.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_thumbpop - Thumbnail Image Gallery w/ popups

I can’t get more images on same row than 2.

My code:
<txp:rss_thumbpop category=“Hupijutut” mode=“float” label=“Hupijutut” orderby=“caption” pagepop=“0” allcats=”1” cols=“5” padheight=“20” />

Does nothing, but if i write: cols=”5” i get the following error:

Tag error: <txp:rss_thumbpop category=“Hupijutut” mode=“float” label=“Hupijutut” orderby=“caption” pagepop=“0” allcats=”1” cols=”1” padheight=“20” /> -> Warning: Division by zero on line 194

Any ideas?

Sorry masa, can’t remember how to do it. I remember it took a bit of trial-and-error to get it to work. Looks like you’ll have to stick with smd_gallery :-) I’ll try and get that random image option sorted for you in the near future.

i have it working fine. still using txp 4.0.5 but i doubt that matters. the tag i use is

<txp:rss_thumbpop showpagelinks="0" catfield="custom_2" usearticle="1" mode="float" jpop="1" addpermlink="0" clickonly="1" orderby="name" />

with custom_2 custom field named ‘gallery’.

Anyone?

Or suggest some other imagegallery that can show 5 images on one row. Site should be ready by tomorrow and i’m strugling with the image gallery :(

I’ve never seen that error, but make sure you use straight quote marks " and not curly ones like in the line of code you pasted. I’ve used the column attribute without problems.

I hope you don’t mind me asking, but do you actually have the space to display more than 2 thumbs? What’s the width of the containing column, thumbs and any padding/margins?
