bot_image_upload: upload, sort, edit, show images in ‘write' tab

redbot · 2011-02-18 15:15:46

Hi Simon,
you must use this sintax:

'bot_iu_fields' => '#article-image,  #custom-1, #custom-2'

BTW it’s all written in the plugins help

Great, thank you redbot.

(sorry, I didn’t notice the examples at the bottom of the plugin help .. doh!)

Version 0.6.1 fixes a minor bug.
When releasing version 0.5 I claimed: “Uploaded and edited images are now selected by default”.
Well it was not entirely true, in fact this feature did not work for single-image fields for a stupid oversight on my part.
Now its fixed.

Download from first post.

P.S.
If you are upgrading from v 0.6 you don’t need to re-upload the ui script.

Hi Redbot,

Tiny problem — the “edit” and “delete” images (background images to those links) do not show up for me. I cannot for the life of me figure out what the issue is, and I tried to search for those images to no avail.

MattD · 2011-03-11 18:22:52

The images are embedded in the plugin code. The url to the edit image is http://site_url/textpattern/?bot_image_img=edit. Can you view the image in your browser by going directly to the url?

Hi Nora,
I was sure fixed this issue some release ago as you can see reading from this post but apparently I was wrong :-(((
You can do a few things to help me spot where the problem is.
First – as Matt suggests (thanks Matt) – can you check if typing this addres: http://site_url/textpattern/?bot_image_img=edit or http://site_url/?bot_image_img=edit shows the image?
Are you using a multi-site installation?

Hi Redbot. Sorry for the late reply, I forgot to subscribe to this thread.

can you check if typing this addres: http://site_url/textpattern/?bot_image_img=edit or http://site_url/?bot_image_img=edit

When I visit the first, it just takes me to the textpattern login page (or my default tab if I’m logged in), and for the second, it takes me to my site’s homepage.

Also, it’s just a single site.

Thanks,
Nora

Hmm… very strange behaviour… I can’t understand what’s causing this, also no one complained about this issue for the latest plugin releases.
Anyway, while I (hopefully) find a solution, you can download the three images here, upload them to your site and change the plugin css accordingly (look for lines between 42 – 60).

Just a last question to be sure: is this happening on a live site or in your local installation?

nabrown78 · 2011-03-14 23:04:45

Hi Redbot — it is a live site. www.mariawhiteman.ca to be exact.

Thanks for the images…for now I have just adjusted the css and other plugin code to use “X” for delete and “Edit” for edit. Don’t kill yourself over this, because that solution works quite well, for me anyway.

You could stack these tiny icons into a single sprite, and include non-coded in the plugin — would that make things any simpler?

Hi Nora,
to tell the truth the plugin included ‘real images’ in his first version but then Jukka/Gocom kindly offered some (really, really appreciated) suggestions, among which the idea of encoded images to stuff everything into a single txt file, so at the end I was (and I still am) persuaded this was the best route to follow.

For the record I begin to think it may depend on some particular php settings on your server (especially related to output buffering) but I agree it is not the case to “kill myself over this”, since the fix is quite easy.

Two last things (yes I’m paranoid):

1) why did you choose to use “x” and “edit” when you could solve the issue by just changing half css line (replacing url(?bot_image_img=edit) with url(../images/edit.png))? I can’t stand this from an aesthetic point of view ;-)

2) I suggest you fix at least the “loader” image as it will give the user a cue that something is happening when they click the “add image” link.

Ah, well…as for #1 I just wanted something quick and dirty, and when I did it, it didn’t look too bad to me. However, when I get some more time I might replace with your images. #2: Very good point. That gives the user important feedback.

Thanks redbot!

Just want to express my respect for the writer of this plugin. This is really of great help, when dealing with txp:gui_unexperienced_clients :) I will express my respect in a donation as soon as txp:gui_unexperienced_client has paid me :)

Grazie mille! Mille grazie!

redbot · 2011-06-09 22:28:51

Thanks jane!
BTW I hope to find the time to release as soon as possible the next version which fixes one or two (minor) bugs.

Hey,

I click the ‘choose image’ link and nothing happens. Any ideas? Using latest TXP release, also have disabled all other plugins.

Hi,
I need more infos to find the issue.
First, if the ‘choose image’ link is showing then I assume jquery is loaded and working.

1) Does this happens in every browser?
2) what do you mean for ‘latest TXP release’? I haven’t tested it with 4.4.1 but it works with 4.4.0

Sorry if my answer is a bit rushed, I wish I had more time to help you but really I haven’t…
