FYI, am using hak_article_image to display multiple images.

Cheers,

I am not sure what could be the reason, but when I upload one image after the other, it doesn’t append the image ID in the Article Image field, instead it replaces the old ID with the new one! I am using TXP v.4.0.6

Edit the plugin code at line 185 to read:

echo "insertid($img_result[1], 'append');</script>";

It’s a hack, but it works for now :)

That worked really well! Thanks so much for this :)

Steve
I installed this of late and find it a great relief for daily work, takes a lot of clicking off me. Thanks! Especially useful when combined with bas_img_selector.

Jirka
would you mind posting your changes?

To have this great plugin styling appropriately with aro_myadmin, I needed a little mods, as I mentioned here. Just changed the css that is loaded in the iframe to myadmin.css.

Original:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="textpattern.css" type="text/css" media="screen" title="no title" charset="utf-8">

mod:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="myadmin.css" type="text/css" media="screen" title="no title" charset="utf-8">

There’s also another mod I made to have the aro_myadmin replacement of toggleDisplay function work:

Original:

echo '<h3 class="plain" style="text-align:left"><a href="javascript:void(0);" id="lam_show_hide" onload>'.gTxt('upload_image').'</a></h3><div id="lam_image_uploader">';

Mod:

echo '<h3 class="plain"><a href="#lam_image_uploader" onclick="toggleDisplay(\'lam_image_uploader\'); return false;" id="lam_show_hide" onload>'.gTxt('upload_image').'</a></h3><div id="lam_image_uploader">';

Hope this may help someone. Bye

Thanks, Zanza :)

Hope somebody can help me out here.

I am uploading images from the Write tab, but I need to disable the creation of a thumbnail for each image I upload. I want to upload the thumbnails manually for each image. Even if I put blank values in the thumbnail creation area of the Images tab, Textpattern still creates a thumbnail!

Somebody please help!

The plugin uses isset instead of empty – that means, it tests whether the variables exist not whether they are empty (I’m not an expert, but I think in txp these vars will always exist because they are in the prefs – they just happen to be empty). Furthermore it doesn’t rely on txp to create an thumbnail, but does it itself (and I love it for this).

One way would be to include another parameter to enable/disable thumbnailing, but that includes a rewrite of the plugin (not an awful complicated one tough). In the meantime the easiest way for you would be to edit the plugin and find the following code (it’s in about the middle of the plugin code) – delete it and voila, no more thumbnailing:

// Auto-generate a thumbnail using the last settings 
if (isset($prefs['thumb_w'], $prefs['thumb_h'], $prefs['thumb_crop'])) { 
  $t = new txp_thumb( $id ); 
  $t->crop = ($prefs['thumb_crop'] == '1'); 
  $t->hint = '0'; 
  if (is_numeric($prefs['thumb_w'])) $t->width = $prefs['thumb_w']; 
  if (is_numeric($prefs['thumb_h'])) $t->height = $prefs['thumb_h']; 
  $t->write(); 
}

Thanks a lot Aba!

Say, if sometime down the line I wish to have the plugin generate thumbnails (as usual), then I could just put the code back, right?

Cheers,
Husain

aba · 2008-08-05 11:08:19

yes

or you could ask Steve to implement a preference to switch thumbnailing on/off – he seems to be some very helpful person.

Hi All,

Is there a way to modify the plugin, so that one can also upload a thumbnail along with the image in the Articles tab? The auto cropping of thumbnails don’t suit the images I use, so I have to upload the thumbnail for each image each time. If I can upload the thumbnail and image together in the Articles tab, it would save a lot of time!

Any quick help appreciated, and thanks in advance … hope somebody has a solution, as I have a tight deadline, and I have around 800 images and their thumbnails to upload :(
