Doesn’t quite work under 4.5.0 I don’t think because the callbacks and plugin types changed. Shouldn’t be hard to fix, I’ll see what I can do tonight.

OK, try the version for 4.5.0. It’s only ‘beta’ because I haven’t actually installed it on my site yet, and the prefs/tools area is rather ugly at the moment until I can make the markup / CSS prettier. But it works. Please report anything good or bad here.

Features (some of which were introduced in the unreleased v0.23):

Txp 4.5.0 only
added mem_moderation_image support
<txp:smd_thumbnail> tag has form/container support
added <txp:smd_thumbnail_info> tag
fixed image <-> select list interaction
added better tooltip on thumb hover
fixed beaucoup de invalid markup

Hi Stef,

I’ve been using the smd_thumbnail v0.30 beta on a few Textpattern 4.5.2 sites and noticed that the <txp:smd_thumbnail /> tag is outputting some internal information on the public site.

For example, <txp:smd_thumbnail type="gallery-medium" /> outputs the following:

<img src="..." width="640" height="426" url="..." alt="" type="gallery-medium" name="image.jpg" category="gallery" category_title="Gallery" author="..." date="1320218742" class="gallery-medium" title="Image=977 × 650&nbsp;Profile=640 × 426" style="">

Downgrading to v0.22 works as expected:

<img src="..." width="640" height="426" alt="" class="gallery-medium" style="">

Hey Stef, is the plugin working with yet 4.5.2+? Have a site with over 2000 images and 0.2.2 doesn’t seem to work well. Is the beta version of 0.2.3 the way to go, or?

The beta 0.30 is 4.5.0 compatible. Give that a whirl.

Mmm. Getting odd output using the following:

<txp:smd_thumbnail type="medium" id="15" class="left" width="0" height="0" />

Outputs:

<img src="/images/medium/15.jpg" width="150" height="150" url="/images/medium/15.jpg" alt="" type="medium" name="name.jpg" author="author" date="2013-01-14 10:11:19" class="left" title="Image=800 × 600&nbsp;Profile=150 × 150">

I thought as per the docs that if setting width="0" and height="0" that these attributes would be omitted?

Using 0.30.

Ah, attributes for the plugin haven’t kept pace with the core’s attributes so width and height are not properly implemented. You’ll probably find if you put the site into Testing mode that the plugin throws a couple of ‘unknown attribute’ errors. Unfortunately it’s not as simple as just permitting those attributes, because of the way the core deals with the special case ‘0’ . Perhaps I need to rethink this bit of the plugin.

Yep that’s just what I found! Due to the setting of height and width attributes the tag does not work on responsive sites : <txp:smd_thumbnail type="medium" id="15" class="left" width="0" height="0" />. Thanks for the update and will reconsider how to handle on this particular site….

Hi Jonathan, maybe I’m wrong but doesn’t it work with:

img.medium {width=100%; height=auto;}

in your stylesheet … !?

Hi Joop, maybe it does, but that kind of adds an extra layer to a future workflow when the attribute is supposed to be based on the default thumbnail method. I may have to use your suggestion in the meantime though. Thanks for posting it!

Then I fear our world is doomed ;-)

But, actually, I’m working on it now and trying to figure out why I made some of the coding decisions I made…

Try the updated smd_thumbnail 0.30 with today’s date against it and see if that resolves the width/height issue.

I’m now wondering if the force_size attribute can be deprecated because you can get the same functionality by using the width/height attributes and setting them to empty '' if you want to use the dimensions stored in the database, or use '0' to omit one or the other value from the img tag.

Hmmmmm. I’ll leave it for now: if anyone can see a good reason for keeping it they can holler. If not, I’ll axe it.

What’s the deal with the titles?

title="Image=439 × 421 Profile=100 × 0"

Ah, that was because someone mentioned that the tooltips on the admin side weren’t much use as it was difficult to tell what was the image’s actual size and the image’s profile size. So if there’s no caption associated with the pic, the default caption is the image data. Due to me using the same function for admin and public sides I guess the title is also showing there too huh? Pants.

Not the best thought through feature ever. Got any ideas on how it might be made more useful on both admin and public sides? Suppose I could make it a configurable string so at least you have a choice when using the default <img> tag. Of course you can always construct your own by using the <txp:smd_thumbnail> tag as a container and using the <txp:smd_thumbnail_info /> tag to display image profile data..
