mloeffen Posted April 26, 2007 Author Share Posted April 26, 2007 hmm installed upto 'Congratulations, you've just enabled the thumbnailer contribution for your store!' and i went on my site and nothing shows up...antechnology.co.uk @Rich: please upload a working version of the thumbnailer before everyone starts complaining it does not work. Both the files of product_thumb.php should be identical. Thanks :thumbsup: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 Hello all, I just wanted to mention that I was having some problems with this contribution; however, having just installed 'Josua's update (found here http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,2226, dated April14th) everything is working perfectly. So for those still having problems I can positively recommend giving this update a try - it simply requires replacing the product_thumb.php file in your root. Remember to backup your original file just in case. I may have struggled on indefinitely with this problem had I not discovered Josua's fix, so particular thanks to you, Josua! Anyhow, I just wanted to say thanks for a brilliant contribution and to all those that have continued to work on and update it. Cheers, L. :thumbsup: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 To add to my above post: Just to confirm, the contribution version I originally installed and was having problems with was v2.2; I don't know whether this fix will work with other versions of the AutoThumbnailer, if indeed there were any problems with previous versions. Might it be possible to compile an updated/complete contribution that includes the fix for any new users that come across it? Not a request, just a forward-minded suggestion. Thanks again everyone!

psynaptic Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 Sorry for the late response but I've been rushed off my feet of late. I've updated the package with the previous SQL update and josua's bugfix. Thanks josua. Sorry for the error. I hope everything is better now.

Guest Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 Hi, Great contrib first off. I followed the instructions, and even went over them two more times and everything seems to work fine when it comes to uploading images and the creation of the thumbnails. Also the product listings show the "No Image" pic as a thumbnail. The problem I have run into is that when I click on the item that I have not added an image to and go to the details page the only thing that comes up is the date the product was added. None of the product details is displayed. This only happens on items that I have not added an image to and it should show the "No Image" pic but nothing shows. Here is the website. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coelroy Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 Hi This is a great contribution. However, I must say, that I got a fright when I saw a big "No Image" quare on my site. Furthermore, when I click on the products under the "Categories" field, there was another four squares. To circumvent this "problem" I simply commented out the following code in catalog/includes/functions/html_output.php: // if no file exists display the 'no image' file if (!is_file($src)) { $src = "images/no_image.jpg"; } Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed that if a layout image such as corner_left.gif is missing it replaces it with the no-image.jpg image. Not nice at all!

Driber Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 Thanks to everyone that worked on this contrib, it's great and running perfectly in my store. Just a little note: in product_thumb.php there is an outdated reference to a textfile on line 11: // Used in conjunction with modified tep_image in html_output.php (see: readme.txt). This should probably be changed to readme.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 I'm having a quality problem. The thumbnails being generated are really chunky. Here's an example: http://www.littleotsu.com/catalog/product_...19e50c9c7b5af5a Any help is super appreciated. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phpsurfer Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 (edited) Hello, Im new to oscommerce and php. Im trying to install 'on the fly' Auto Thumbnailer using GG library. Im having a problem on "step#4 Verify config settings". Step#4 says; In catalog/includes/configure.php Verify the following code exists (21, 22, 23) define('DIR_WS_HTTP_CATALOG', '/catalog/'); define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/catalog/'); define('DIR_WS_IMAGES', 'images/'); Note: Check this configuration file to make sure the path is set correctly for both your catalog directory and your images directory. With the above example, the DIR_WS_HTTP_CATALOG value should be /catalog/ and the DIR_WS_IMAGES value images/. (Notice that it doesn't have a leading slash) My fyle in catalog/includes/configure.php line 21,22 e 23 says: define('DIR_WS_HTTP_CATALOG', '/'); define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/'); define('DIR_WS_IMAGES', 'images/'); What should i do? I tryed lots of things that didnt work. Thak you Miguel Edited May 23, 2007 by phpsurfer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As this contribution will resample your images it's best to keep high quality originals as the additional processing done by the compression will further deteriorate your images. Try it with higher quality images if it's still a problem.
