does this need an image physically uploaded as an attachment?  Or if someone posts an image using photobucket or imageshack, will a thumb also be created?

madman71

yep! physically attached is the only way it works.

I only wished it could detect free hosting site links like Imagevenue, photobucket, etc.

I know Vbulliten has a mod that does that.

I posted in vb's inspirational thread to see if it could be altered to reflect avatar height/width rather than attachment but for the time being in messages index Ive simply altered:


'width' => $row['thnWidth']/3,
'height' => $row['thnHeight']/3


so it scales it to 1/3 of the attachment size on display. Makes it a lil more conforming... I did get it humming but the posts where zips are loaded before the images are still not showing in topics.. trying to trace down the code for that aspect and going cross-eyed

I can explain this as simply as possible.. If I do it & implement I guarantee it.
If I do it and you implement it its a crap shoot.

I would love to get this to scale correctly for both horizontal and vertical images. If we take a scale for a photograph at 640 x 480 in the horizontal, to get a thumb at 64 x 48 is easy and it shows correctly, but when we go to a vertical shot it seems to squash it into an almost square and the scale is way off for a vertical thumb of 48 x 64. To find a fix for this would be perfect.

Similar to what VB has for the SMF gallery (yes bought and paid for  :) ) would be ideal if that could be adapted for this mod.

Anyway, thanks for your time HR, I'm looking deeper into it now.

Welcome, now if we just had the thing look at all the attachments and show only the first jpg it'd be gold OR.. a lil plugin like the buddy mod where you can move an attachment up or down the list..

So so.. this is me rambling but I get the ID.ATTACH reference and what not (for the most part) perhaps it should be tweaked (if I knew how I would) so that its looking in height & width for anything that is not null.. zips and the like record a value of '0' in the database so perhaps if it hits the first attachment and its height or width in the database (attachments table) in not '0' then stop and display the thing else go on to the next and compare.

I know.. this might seem pointless to you but I will most likely look back at this later and figure a way to bandaid it and make it work

I can explain this as simply as possible.. If I do it & implement I guarantee it.
If I do it and you implement it its a crap shoot.

I have a new forum installed only weeks old. With a few other mods installed. This mod is working in the SMF default theme but not in a custom theme I'm using.
I tried to manually code my themed MessageIndex.template.php but the codes I need to find just aren't in there.
If I attach the MessageIndex.template.php here could someone fix it for me please?

Few question ..

Can the thumbnail size be adjusted?
Does it Show a thumbnail if and external image is linked and not attached?
Do you get a admin panel?
can you specify which boards to use this mod?

no, there's no mod for SMF that will do this.  There is one for VB forums though.

How would that work for external images?
Since they have no thumbnails plus the mod would have to scan the post for valid image links

Most of the free image hosts that use the IMG tag are for displaying thumbnails.

such as this link:
[URL=http://img127.imagevenue.com/img.php?image=86608_P1010360_5Large6_122_806lo.JPG][IMG]http://img127.imagevenue.com/loc806/th_86608_P1010360_5Large6_122_806lo.JPG[/IMG][/URL]

The first part of the link leads to the full size image, the second part will display the thumb
