Re: Admin plugin: glx_admin_image_resize

Hmm I can’t get the first plugin to work – it’s activated but there’s nothing to show the extra bits of where to move the image.

With the second question, I couldn’t get that to work either….

Sods law. When I say they don’t work, I mean with the first one as above, with the second one there’s no drop down menu,

Re: Admin plugin: glx_admin_image_resize

You can put a class=“something” in the glx_image tag where you put the id, too. You now place your image… well, take a look at the plugin help ;)

For class=“something”, you put in something like “right” and give that a style in your css.

The second plugin should work if you follow the instructions on the last page of the forum thread.

“Should” being the operative word. The error disappears wonderfully, just no drop down.

I know I could add the class, but I’m trying to make the process as easy as possible for other users.

Oh well, I just to have look at what options I have, and then if none are easy enough for general users then I’ll have to consider other software.

Thanks for the help though

Re: Admin plugin: glx_admin_image_resize

Well if you wanna make it real easy you can change the name of the function in the plugin, e.g. to “image”, and then change the variable “class” to something like “position” and tell people they’ve got left, right and center.

And you might wanna take a look at this plugin that surely works ;)

Re: Admin plugin: glx_admin_image_resize

Does this plugin resize .gif images and if not, is it possible to add this functionality?

Re: Admin plugin: glx_admin_image_resize

Also, can you make it so it only resizes the thumbnail if you click the resize button?

I will give you an example. I have an image of a book cover that I upload and set the thumbnail to 100px. Over the next week I upload other images that I set the thumbsize as 85px. Now I need to go back and replace the book cover image, so I browse my computer, upload a new image and click save. Now since my cookie has been set for 85px (though the book needs to be 100px) because of the other images my book cover thumbnail gets resized when I save. It seems logical to have it only resize when I click the resize button, just like the large image does so that users don’t accidently resize images.

Re: Admin plugin: glx_admin_image_resize

I think I must be mentally challenged since so many of you seem to be using this plugin with no problems.

When I installed and activated the plugin, nothing happened. No stylesheet was created in the presentation > style tab, and when I click on an image name, all I get is the original form that allows you to upload a thumb and add name attributes.

Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
TJ

[Edit]
It might be good to note that in order to make “admin” plugins work, you must be running at least version 1.0rc3.

BTW, This plugin is great!

Re: Admin plugin: glx_admin_image_resize

I understand that osei is <a href=“http://forum.textpattern.com/viewtopic.php?id=9221”>too busy to develop his plugins for now</a>.
i hope that this particular plugin is taken by someone as it is one of the most practical and time saving ones out there.

Re: Admin plugin: glx_admin_image_resize

Instead of thinking to downgrade it is better to help osei to find someone to adopt his plugins.
