smd_thumbnail: manage multiple thumbnails of your images

rossharvey · 2013-04-25 22:42:55

Hey Stef,

For the first time ever, one of your plugins isn’t working for me! Usually flawless.

Running 4.1.1, when I click on an image to edit it, the smd_thumb options are not visible (there is just a single grey line). I assume this is where the custom options would be.

Any ideas?

Hope all is well :¬)

Which version of smd_thumbnail are you using? The beta v0.30 is for 4.5+ while the “official” version 0.22 is for 4.4.1.

I use the term ‘beta’ lightly as it’s only because I’ve been too busy/lazy to officially release all my plugins for 4.5 that they’re in the beta folder. Most of them work fine on 4.5 now. Just a few stragglers like smd_tags that are letting the side down.

I was using 0.22 buddy, being on 4.4.1.

Edit: when enabled, the standard/existing TXP thumbs disappear from the image list (although I think this is expected), replaced with ‘No’, and when viewing an individual image, there is nothing between Replace Image and Image Name, except two grey separator lines.

That is expected. Depending on the smd_thumbnail prefs, they will either be kept in sync behind the scenes as you upload your smd_thumb thumbnails, or they’ll stay as they were before the plugin was enabled.

replaced with ‘No’

That means you don’t (yet) have any smd_thumbnail thumbs. Perfectly normal when using the plugin first time or if you don’t have a default thumbnail profile set.

when viewing an individual image, there is nothing between Replace Image and Image Name, except two grey separator lines.

As long as the plugin installed ok, that only happens if you have not set up any thumbnail profiles. Can you please check if the smd_thumbnail table exists in your database and that you have at least one (active) profile set up in it? Drop down the Thumbnail profiles twisty on the Image list screen and make sure the values in the profile(s) you have set up match with the ones in the database table. Let me know if there are any discrepancies as it might give me a clue what’s going on.

Ah, it seems I hadn’t saved the profile correctly – thanks for your help (as always)!

Glad to see you working in the TXP core btw :¬)

Hi Stef.

I have a thumbnail profile named Grid, and I’ve created the necessary thumbs for the article images. I get this error when I try and call the plugin:

Tag error: <txp:smd_thumbnail type="Grid"/> -> Textpattern Notice: Unknown image. on line 1245

Trace:

	[article 107]
	[Form: list_grid]
	<txp:smd_thumbnail type="Grid"/>
		Tag error:  <txp:smd_thumbnail type="Grid"/> -> Textpattern Notice: Unknown image.  on line 1245
	<txp:permlink />
	<txp:title/>

The portfolio page calls a form:

<txp:article_custom section='weddings,slideshow' category="grid" sort="custom_9" form='list_grid' />

The form, list_grid is:

                    <li class="linkwrapper">
                        <txp:smd_thumbnail type="Grid"/>
                        <a href="<txp:permlink />" title="<txp:title/>" class="description"><txp:title/></a>
                    </li>

Am I missing something obvious?

TXP 4.4.1, plugin version 0.22.

Edit: that was a typo in the code block, all references in the live system are to Grid. Still not working.

Any ideas? Brick wall!

Anyone? :(

Hi Stef,

there is a problem with the plug-in regarding the rss feed. Obviously, the <txp:smd_thumbnail> tag remains as a tag and will not be transformed to HTML when the feed gets build. Of course, a feed reader doesn’t understand the tag and no thumbnail will be displayed. Not too sad, as long as thumbnails are not important, but posts consisting mainly of a thumbnail gallery appear a bit too empty ;-)

Any suggestions how to solve that problem? (I use TXP 4.5.4 and smd_thumbnail 0.30 – beside the feed problem everyhing works phantastic.)

Thanks, Ralf

Hi Ross, I don’t use this plugin but would the name be conflicting the article category name?

In theory the plugin should be parsed in the feed if you are using it in the article or the excerpt feeds. Can you post a url?

Hi Yiannis,

sure, the site is here (the feed has a trailing /rss at the end, but it looks as if I’m not allowed to use more than one link).

The latest post features 15 thumbnails in a gallery that show the described problem. Feed validators congratulate to a valid feed, but suggest to improve line 14 ff:

line 14, column 0: Non-html tag: txp:smd_thumbnail (15 occurrences)

Okay, nothing seems to happen anymore in this case. Let’s try it the other way: is somebody out there, who uses smd_thumbnail and can confirm appearing (plugin generated) thumbnails in his or her own feed? Or is it theory only?

Thanks
Ralf

Hi Ralf

I am looking at your site. There seems to be something wrong as the feeds should be on http://www.achtelmond.de/rss/ and http://www.achtelmond.de/atom/ with a trailing slash.

I am using NetNewsWire and all looks fine without any problems.
