Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_thumbpop - Thumbnail Image Gallery w/ popups
“Also, a few people have requested forward/backward image navigation on the popup page. That is something that I’m working on for another project so another plugin could come out of that soon.”
I’m in huge need of image navigation at the top of the popup page. Users keep getting confused as I am trying to show a chronilogical process through images. Also, when you have clickonly=“1” on, the “Mouseover a thumbnail to view” text doesn’t seem to change.
Anyone know how to change the text above or if a new plugin to place forward/backward navigation exists? Thanks

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_thumbpop - Thumbnail Image Gallery w/ popups
Trying to help a friend with textpattern and this plugin but he´s facing a very strange problem, anyone heard of this:
Tried different of versions but all the same. He can install other plugins but when trying with rss_thumbpop nothing is installed. He get to the page where all the code is presented but when he hit install he get error messages telling him the plugin couldn´t be installed.
Only happens with *rss_thumbpop*(!)
Problem solved. Server issue.

Remove the comments lines at the top and try pasting in only the encoded plugin.

Sorry, but we have tried that. Even tried older versions of this plugin…. All the same.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_thumbpop - Thumbnail Image Gallery w/ popups
Helo
Im new to using Txp and plugins, but i find it very attractive.
My question is: is there posibility to achive the same look off galery, like hier: http://www.durchgedreht24.de/galerie :
- litle thumbnail of article on galery list page, and diferent size thumbnails in galery page.
Now when I show the thumbnail in galery list page, the thumbnail size is the same as in galery page (because this is the one of the galery image;). can i use another one for galery list page?
Is there posibility to use rss_thumbpop to achive this effect?
sory for my english
Thanks

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_thumbpop - Thumbnail Image Gallery w/ popups
wilshire> I’ve been trying to output a series of full-size images as documented here. I was surprised to find that, by all accounts, it’s not possible with a standard txp install or with combinations of plugins.
Not like you live to add features to rss_thumbpop, but I think it could be accomplished by adding attributes, something like- <code>thumbsize=“full”</code> and
- <code>thumblink=0</code>
What do you think? Not trying to add bloat, is anyone else looking for this?

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_thumbpop - Thumbnail Image Gallery w/ popups
can anyone confirm that attributes usearticle and catfield are working on txp 4.0.3 with rss_thumbpop 0.6.1 ?
this is the tag I’m using, in an article form (for display on an individual article page):
<txp:rss_thumbpop usearticle="1" catfield="custom_3" mode="float" limit="999" cols="999" pagepop="1" padheight="100" />
I’ve also tried with catfield="cat-for-thumbs" btw (name of custom field)
the above outputs thumbs of ALL images

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_thumbpop - Thumbnail Image Gallery w/ popups
First post – been lurking here for a while as I gradually learn this whole Textpattern thing, and I must say what a bunch of cool people y’all are. And Rob, this is a top plugin. Just what the TxpDoctor ordered.
Couple of things, unless I’m being thick (highly likely)…
1) If using clickonly=“1” the text above the pic still says “Mouse over a thumbnail to view”. I made a small mod to get round it, thus: (changes are line 2 and a bit of the last line, can’t figure out how to highlight them: noob posting blues)
<code>
$events = ($clickonly) ? ‘onclick=“return showPic(this)”’ : ‘onmouseover=“return showPic(this)” onclick=“return showPic(this)”’;
$eventdesc = ($clickonly) ? ‘Click a thumbnail to view’ : ‘Mouse over a thumbnail to view’;
…
…
$divimg = ‘<div id=“fullsize”><div id=“desc”>’.$eventdesc.’</div><img id=“placeholder” src=”’.$blankimg.’” alt=”“ />’ ;
</code>
Nothing drastic.
2) I’m having the same issue as nardo with Txp 4.0.3 and rss_thumbpop 0.6.1; namely with the following code:
<code>
txp:rss_thumbpop usearticle=“1” catfield=“gallery_categories” mode=“float” limit=“6” cols=“3” showcaption=“0” jpop=“1” clickonly=“1” fullontop=“0” showfullcaption=“1”
</code>
I get all images shown, even though I’ve set up custom_10 as “gallery_categories”. In the article that I want to show the photo gallery, I populated the custom field with the name of an image category. I tried using “custom_10” as the arg to catfield with the same result. Further, clicking an image doesn’t display the fullsize. Instead, the page refreshes (odd in itself because jpop is 1), I get the same first few thumbs shown and the fullsize pic is always the last one in the list. Plus, the Next/Prev page buttons don’t appear.
Not a show-stopper for me, coz for now I can just duplicate the article/form a few times and hardcode a different image category in each. I’m going to try some other random options in case I’m just being dense and have a squint through the code to see if I can spot what’s going on, but don’t hold yer breath cos I haven’t quite got my head round plugins yet. I’ll shout if I find something.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_thumbpop - Thumbnail Image Gallery w/ popups
Im also not getting usearticle to work under 4.0.3 and rss_thumbpop 0.6.1
I made a customfield called “gallery”, and in that field i put in the image category name.
MY CODE.
txp:rss_thumbpop usearticle=“1” catfield=“gallery” mode=“table” limit=“12” cols=“4”
Ive tried it on two different hosts, and on one I get back a long load time with a blank main page, and on the other, I get no images found, this is one is on dreamhost. The other is a home server.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_thumbpop - Thumbnail Image Gallery w/ popups
No closer to finding out why I can’t get usearticle/catfield to work in v0.6.1. Perhaps it’s a plugin clash? More digging in progress…
Have made another minor edit if anyone else requires it: when using showblank=“1” to display a blank image and you also have showfullcaption=“1”, the caption from the most recent photo gets shown beneath the blank image. D’oh! I hacked it by finding this line of code:
<code>
$blankimg = ($showblank) ? $blankimg : $full;
</code>
and adding this beneath it:
<code>
$finalcap = ($showblank) ? “ ” : $caption;
</code>
and then just before the next <code>else</code>, changing the ‘caption’ to ‘finalcap’ thus:
<code>
$divimg .= ($showfullcaption) ? ‘<div id=“jpopcap”>’.$finalcap.’</div></div>’ : ‘</div>’;
</code>
No doubt someone with better PHP skills than me can improve upon it. Tested in Firefox 1.5.0.1, Opera 8.5 and IE 6 (spit) under SP2. My Mac’s asleep so Safari will have to wait.
BTW, the <code> </code> is necessary (in IE at least) so the DOM can get a handle on the object to modify the caption; an empty string or a space just won’t cut it.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_thumbpop - Thumbnail Image Gallery w/ popups
Hello there.
I have a little request that is not directly related to this great plugin.
In this site I’m building, I need a two-stage article, one mainly built over the article itself (meaning, mainly text and only 4 to 5 thumbnails) and the other focusing on the visual aspect (a bunch of photos and only a preview of the text) – where a full-grown gallery will be displayed.
Since I can’t use rss_thumbpop to build two galleries using the same pictures and the “articlethumbs” tag (I can only classify a picture once, and an article also has a unique id), I decided to simulate a small gallery-like div using the inbuilt txp:thumbnail tag.
After managing to get that small gallery-like “thing” working (thank you all!!).
I realised that this pop-up window delivered by the txp:thumbnail function is really ugly (with scrollbars and all!!).
So I decided to copy the instructions built in this plugin and replace the one included in the taghandlers.php file, under the txp:thumbnail function.
I’ve been messing with the code of both functions (maintaining the original, of course) and trying to understand it, but so far it’s been a catastrophe – I have no programmer skills… at all!
Can someone help-me transforming the txp:thumbnail function so that it outputs a pop-up window similar to the one rss_thumbpop does.
Thanks.
