Re: [request] Image upload from Write tab
Dragondz: I like it very much :) But how about these changes/additions:
- style=“display: true” should probably be “display:block;”
- use gTxt for “Upload” (already translated) and possibly som other string
- Output the ID for the image, and/or a popup-link to show its Textile code
Eh bien, c’est tout quoi. Autrement c’est presque parfait :)

Re: [request] Image upload from Write tab
Regarding image cropping.. Since we’re using jQuery nowadays, how about including parts of Interface (a set of jQuery plugins) too? I might going too far here, I know, but have a look at the ease of use of this image cropping demo
More demos are available too.

Anton,
Wow. I’ve never seen that cropping tool.
Implementing it into any of the image tools could be amazing!

Re: [request] Image upload from Write tab
Quick cludge to add uploading to upm_img_popper!
Edit the plugin and around line 102, after the extract() call, add the following:
global $file_max_upload_size;
echo upload_form(gTxt('upload_image'), 'upload', 'image_insert', 'image', '', $file_max_upload_size);
Have to manually do a “back” using the shortcut keys since there is no navigation bar.

I worked theses few days in an upload plugin from write tab (my firs admin pluggin) and for now I have a testing version.
Don’t use it in an active website, the pluggin is only for testing and improving.
Is this working OK?
The idea to this thread is excellent, and long overdue: yes, yes, yes, upload images from the Write tab.
Are there any major concerns though, installing this particular plug in now if it might break stuff?

Re: [request] Image upload from Write tab
Hi james
The plugin work only under txp 4.0.4, and after few tests i haven’t noticed particular problème, but like i said before it needs some improvement to be useful and more tests are welcome.

Re: [request] Image upload from Write tab
Yes I’m using 4.0.4 and I’ve tested it, but the plug in isn’t working for me. Unless there is something simple and easy I need to configure to maybe get it working, I’ve now disabled it because it’s making me nervous.

Here’s what it needs to accomplish:
- Upload if necessary
- If upload, then assign details. Create thumb. alt. caption, etc. Ability to create category on the fly if necessary.
- If upload multiple images??? How would detail assignment work if this was the case?
- Select image if already uploaded or just uploaded
- set display settings (using graphical representations of classes – defined in a extensions/pref tab)
- insert image (similar options here to img_popper, but could be limited in an extensions/pref tab)
Things I think are preferential:- Single interface (not two separate links)
- Images handled like bas_img (with hierarchical folders) or (multiple categories – tagging) for sorting purposes (may be outside the frame of this plugin)
- Simple image manipulation (again, may be outside the scope)
What do people think of that?
I think it’s just great.
Developing Bastian’s plug in just a little more seems a logical next step because as an interface addition, it already works very nicely.

Re: [request] Image upload from Write tab
Yet another solution: stm_image_uploader
Probably too bare-bonesy for most of you in its current state, but it works fine.

Re: [request] Image upload from Write tab
No, just one at a time. You’ll also need to prepare the image in the right size and it neither generates a thumbnail for you. For uploading multiple images you won’t find anything more convenient than ebl_batchupload

I haven’t been following this thread for a while, but have Matthew’s/Bastian’s mockups lead to any working solution yet? I know there are more recent developments, but, if I’m not mistaken, none have anywhere near the scope of what was suggested here.
