[MOD] Image Upload Module (v1.0) -- Now Available

[Relative0]

I get the problem of having a "black box" instead of a thumbnail. I had this mode installed at one time and had this fixed, (but I lost it), and I can not find the solution..... Is it because there needs to be some folder for the "thumbnails"? in which I need to specifically define? or perhaps the full size images are just dynamically resized and not stored anywhere.... But then I don't know why I am just getting a black box as when I click on the black box, the full size image comes up in a new window. If this is the case where there is a specific folder I need to create to house the thumbnails, what do I call the folder and where do I put it? Oh yeah, I am using Pligg 9.8

I thought there was an answer to this somewhere on the forum, but I can not find it now....

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Brian

I was unable to find

$linkres->store();
tags_insert_string($linkres->id, $dblang, $linkres->tags);

in /templates/(your template)/submit_step_3.tpl

to do the second step

Since the module lacks of a gallery I thought about incorporating external gallery code.

Coppermine Gallery (Coppermine Photo Gallery) and Gallery2 (Gallery | Your photos on your website) are fully-fledged Flickr/Picasa clones and a little bit to heavy for that task.

PHPSlideShow (zinkwazi.com » PHPSlideShow) really impressed me. If the main image is resized to fit next to the sidebars it should look awesome in Pligg. Maybe someone is interested to write some integration code

I had written this before and have tried re-installing the mod, and looking all over for the answer to this, I can't find it, perhaps someone could tell could point me in the right direction for this??

Hi...I am using Version 9.9 of Pligg...just a little nervous about installing the "hack fix" verion 1.02 of image uploader. Currently using V0.4 which has issues. Is anyone using V1.02 in a live environment?...is it working OK?...anyone know of progress towards a more official release on this mod?

Thanks

Yeesh. I just lucked out, it seems.

You're right; 9.9 beta doesn't have the linkres piece in the template. It's in the do_submit3 function in/submit.php. Adding the text there after the code snippet mentioned will likely work (it's working for me with the file_upload module).

Actually it's in the do_submit2 function. I put the code there, the image is uploading to my images/ directory, but I am not getting any thumbnails on the stories...the div is floated to the right, but it is empty.



It's empty because the image filename isn't being set in image_upload_main.php:

// Otherwise, let's get it from the Submission field its saved in
	$imageFile = $main_smarty->get_template_vars(module_imageupload_filename_field);

Who was the dev who created the image upload? Any chance he can comment here? I am completely stumped and frustrated.

It was cent (http://forums.pligg.com/members/cent.html). He doesn´t seem to be online very often.

Well I've found a major bug with this in v9.9. Take a look at line 127:

$storyTitle = htmlentities(stripslashes($main_smarty->get_template_vars(title_short)));

$storyTitle is never set. In fact the $main_smarty variable doesn't return anything. There must have been some core change in v9.9 that hasn't been accounted for. So even though the basic functionality of the image upload is working, certain things like titles are never set.

This means I can't figure out how to access the smarty variables so I can't change the image link to the story URL. Anybody have any ideas?

Guys I'm kind of in the same boat! I got the image to sit nice, a good size but for some reason the image isn't uploading to the proper folder! The thumbnail is working perfect so I'm thinking I can do 2 things!

1- can we make the image link to the story?

2- can we make the image not be a link at all?

Thanks in advance
