Re: upm_img_popper
Is this correct?
Yes. However, those instructions are referring to the prefs being displayed on admin prefs tab. I should’ve made that more obvious (I didn’t need to at the time because people were having that problem so they already knew what I was talking about).
Also, with caption set to “on”, I don’t see it in the pop-up window.
Which popup window are we talking about?
I think you’re referring to the public-side image popup? If so, then we’re talking about upm_image (the plugin was recently split into two). The caption won’t (as in, shouldn’t, at the moment) appear in the popup window, just the image. Originally an oversight, I think, I don’t see why I couldn’t add it, so I’ll do so.
For future reference: if you want to customize some aspect of the popup JavaScript, yes, you’ll need to turn off the script auto-append (see plugin prefs) and create your own JavaScript (you could use the shipped script as a reference or create something totally different). That said, I’m open to suggestions for the default values.
Now, if that’s not what you’re talking about, please elaborate as to which popup you mean. :)

Re: upm_img_popper
Hi Mary,
I don’t recall offhand that there are 7 prefs in the admin side, I guess you mean the prefs under the extension tab? If you did mean that, how would one remove all of them?
Yes, I meant the public-side pop-up. I used the popup code generated I believe by the img_popper portion. The upm_image tags are on the right of the upm_ window (insert image window), I used the “popup” code just to the left of that.
When it says “include caption”, does that mean only upm_image? Its a little confusing as to what SHOULD happen…..
Its a wonderful plugin by the way!

Re: upm_img_popper
Ah, I just double-checked: for a popup I had it that the caption becomes the popup link’s title (tooltip).
When it says “include caption”, does that mean only upm_image?
It should work for upm_article_image as well.

What should happen is that caption gets included, in some way, by default. I’ve got it as “show_title” for the attribute name.

Re: upm_img_popper
Oh and I forgot to explain the other:
Originally, I had the plugin setup to have it’s own preferences, which would appear in it’s own tab under “extensions” rather than as a part of the built-in admin prefs. Shortly thereafter, Textpattern changed how it handled preferences and these plugin prefs suddenly became visible on the built-in admin prefs page, confusing a lot of people. The fix mentioned was to restore the prefs back to the way they were: “hidden”.

Re: upm_img_popper
Thanks Mary. Here is a link to look at, just a little down the page there are 4 pop-up images. The caption is set to on and there is a caption for each image, so perhaps you could tell me if I am missing something, because I don’t see it ;-)

Re: upm_img_popper
Hmm. You do have captions (I believe the field is called “description” or something like that) for your images, right? Not the alt text.

Re: upm_img_popper
Hi, yes I do. I just double checked. I have alt text field filled up, and the caption field too. The only thing I don’t have for these images is a category, but that should not be relevant I think.

That’s right, that shouldn’t make a difference. Time to be beating a plugin into submission again. :)

Re: upm_img_popper
Thanks Mary! May I make a suggestion – in the popup window for selecting images, one thing that is (or could be) confusing is that there are two means to insert a popup – one seems to be the popper and the other one is for upm_image. Is it necessary to have two?
The upm_image popup inserts the class too, so it seems to be a better option to use.
Thought I should mention that – hope its helpful. This plugin is the most important plugin for TXP, so thanks for your great work.

Re: upm_img_popper
Wha? One is for the built-in tags, the other is for upm_image.

Re: upm_img_popper
Sorry, didn´t find solution from this thread, maybe just overlooked it but is it possible to remove “Custom form” selection from the popup in the admin side? And how to?
