Post-Thumb Revisited: version 2.2
2.2 17/12/2007
- Options: option screen has been re-organized to make it clearer (hopefully). An help screen has also been added.
- DIRNAME: dirname is now a depth parameter. It will analyse the image url and include the sub-directory up to the specified number (or when it finds ‘:’ or ‘.’). This will enable sticking to WP way of saving images. Example:
- mysite.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/myimage.jpg
- DIRNAME=2
- thumbnail name will be: thumb-200801myimage.jpg
- NOFORM: new parameter. It will return the html string without any space, tab and return.
- OBJECT: new parameter. If specified, the functions will return an object containing information instead of an html string. This is for developper usage.
- MAX: new parameter. if set to 1, post-thumb will not resize image which are smaller than targetted size. Works only if keepratio is set to 1.
- Thumbnail names are now sanitize in WP way. It means that only numeric, alphabetic and ‘-’ are now allowed in them (including append string).
- nextgen gallery and ptalbum should now be thumbnailed properly. Note that this feature is resource consuming during the update of the post table.
- Excerpt: Post-Thumb provides an excerpt alternative to wordPress standard. See description in the documentation.
- Recent images: a simple function to return thumbnail of all the last images in posts. Can use a simple cache.
- Post formatting
- A sub-directory can now be set in options to save thumbnails generated by post formatting functions.
- Names of thumbnails generated by post formatting functions can now be modified by including directory name. It works the same way than DIRNAME parameter.
- You can tell Post-Thumb to add lightbox compatibility (rel=”lightbox”) when it generates thumbnail inside posts.
- Bug corrections:
- some php5 only functions were in the code (stripos).
- a function was mispelled causing error in some specific cases.
- correct some WP<2.1 compatibility issues.
- improve post parsing masks.

hello. the plugin is working great. i would like to change the default link to link to the post, rather than the image, within the pt_the_excerpt function. i have tried the ‘link=p’ attribute, however it does not work.
I would like to have the title, the excerpt and the thumbnail on the homepage.

Hi alakhnor,
Thanks for an amazing update. No wonder you were being quite
I have one problem.
For random_thumb, my previous parameters is giving me an error.
This is what I had inside ( ).
subfolder=random&altappend=random_&link=p&width=160&height=100&limit=1&keepratio=1&LB_effect=0,
How should I change this for your updated plugin?
Thanks.

Hi :). What error do you have?
février 16th, 2008 at 13:58
This is what I’m getting.
Warning: array_rand() [function.array-rand]: Second argument has to be between 1 and the number of elements in the array in wp-content\plugins\alakhnors-post-thumb\post-thumb.php on line 429
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in wp-content\plugins\alakhnors-post-thumb\post-thumb.php on line 406
février 16th, 2008 at 16:45
Have you tried to re-generate the table?
février 16th, 2008 at 19:37
Oliver>the syntax of pt_get_excerpt is:
< ?php echo pt_get_excerpt(< e param >, < t param >, < add string >); ?>e param: excerpt param. There, you need to specify “SHOW=TEI” (T=title, E=excerpt, I=thumbnail). The order of the letters sets the display order.
t param: thumbnail param. There you need to specify “link=p”.
add string: additional string. If “SHOW” in excerpt param contains “A”, it will be displayed there.
février 16th, 2008 at 20:32
i don’t understand where i must put link=p, can you help me? thanks
février 16th, 2008 at 21:01
Something like:
< ?php the_thumb("link=p"); ?>
Check here: http://code.google.com/p/post-thumb-revisited/wiki/Parameters for more information.

I have the same problem using echo the_recent_thumbs(’altappend=thumbnail_&width=144&height=144&myclassimg=sthumb&showtitle=t&link=p&keepratio=0&showpost=1&limit=1′);
“link=p” is already specified.
I get the same error.

Refreshing the database fixed the random thumb error, but now half my entries are showing the default thumbnail…
février 17th, 2008 at 11:42
Hi. It seems that the thumbnail generation is only working for images that were inserted using
<img=’path’ />
and not
<img=”path” />
Example:

février 17th, 2008 at 14:34
Have you changed something? because all images seem ok now.
février 18th, 2008 at 8:11
Hi,
Yeap.Regenerating the tables fixed it. Thanks.
By the way, now that it’s 2.2 and probably stable for a while, would you like me to localize this into Japanese? Just one way of showing appreciation of your wonderful plugin. My blog cannot do without Post-Thumb
I’m getting tired of translating the text into Japanese directly onto the files anyway.
If you could send me the .pot file I’ll get right on it.
Cheers.
février 18th, 2008 at 13:19
It should be stable as soon as I release the next correction version.^^
However, the translation files will not change. I do not have any pot file but you can use the po files which are provided with the plugin (one for the admin part, another for the rest).
février 18th, 2008 at 15:42
OK.
But could you send me the po files without the French translation in them.
I must be doing something wrong but the Japanese translation is not working. So I want to start from fresh.
Thanks.
février 18th, 2008 at 19:13
I thought you would just have to copy the po file then change the translation and save it to an mo.
I’ll try to prepare something.
février 19th, 2008 at 2:24
Yes, that’s what I was doing but …
février 19th, 2008 at 2:50
you may just have to change the character encoding in the project description. I must admit, I’m not very familiar with poedit and japanese translation
février 20th, 2008 at 2:37
Yes, I did that…
By the way, I found a minor error in style_hs.css on line 82.
“;” misplaced?
février 25th, 2008 at 5:42
Under “post options” the plugin will not let me change the thumbnail size from 120×120. I would like to make them bigger, but every time I click on update after I change the size, it reverts back to 120×120. Any thoughts?
février 25th, 2008 at 23:43
Hi, im using your plugin and its great.. but just today i started having problems like:

février 26th, 2008 at 3:43
spenny>It’s a bug. I’ll fix this.
février 26th, 2008 at 22:56
hhl>what is the picture that caused the problem?
février 27th, 2008 at 2:03

Well i saw it was fixed soon as i upgraded the plugin, but there is still a PROBLEM, the picture in the post doesn’t show up as the thumb, but rather the default picture (thumb) keeps showing.. and it happens to any new post i make excluding posts already posted before upgrading..
can u please help?
février 27th, 2008 at 2:23
Try to save options then generate post-thumb table again.
février 27th, 2008 at 2:57

thanks
février 27th, 2008 at 15:00
Go to options screen and check the checkboxes in the “overview” page.

dear alakhnor,
In your site the recent fotos are next to eachother (3 in a row). in my site it keeps on 1 (under eachother). how do i make them to be like in your site (of maybe 4 or 5 in a row). i have plenty of space to have them next to eachother. but cant find any options to do so.
please can you help me out?
Kind regards and thank you for the great plugin!!

It all depends on your theme and how you insert posts/thumbnails.
If you just output the thumbnail in a div, the basic css to use is:
#whatever_id { width: (so_many_thumbnails)px }#whatever_id a img { float: left; }
whatever_id being the wrapping div for all thumbnails.
As I’m using the widget here, it produces an unordered list, so I just have to set:
.wid_recent li { float: left; }then, the number of thumbnails in a row is given by the width of the sidebar.
mars 10th, 2008 at 2:21
hi alakhnor thanks for the quick reply. I am using your widget indeed.
so i have to put the line “.wid_recent li { float: left; }” (within the quotes). but where exactly do i put that line?
kind regards for the quick answer.
