Installed, rated and nominated this is great mod

Thanks :)

Can you make this work for signatures, or at least some curl script to just display signature images so I can keep SSL on my site?

It works for images of any kind on any site which will allow hotlinking. It does not influence or depend on SSL, but it may not work for you, if the server isn't allowing to pull in external data.

Hello y2ksw :)

I'm thinking about installing this and have a question.

Some of my users are using these pay per view image sites, and they're linking images on my forum. I would like to know if your plugin will -
Delete the link attached to these images?

You see they post the images, but when you click on the image they redirect you to some spammy website which really bugs me. Can your plugin remove this link also?

I understand I will host the image, but when I'm hosting the image, will I now be hardlinking my images to their websites?

Thanks for your time and workmanship!

It's possible that this product imports images on the blogs? It works beautifully on our site.

I'm sorry, this product is thought of hosting images only. But you could pretty easily replace the offending links with a query from phpMyAdmin, such as:

The 'localhost' entry makes sure nobody ever will go anywhere but the own PC, but of course this may also not be desired (then, replace with a host of your choice). You will also have to truncate the postparsed table after such changes, and, as always, make a backup before testing :)

Nope, only forum posts are currently supported.

Hi, i think i got this mod working.
But in some cases the images are not being imported, i cant explain why.
Here few examples :

Working : http://www.gsmforum.es/showthread.ph...860mAH-BLISTER (Img imported : http://www.gsmforum.es/images/imported/2013/02/1.jpg)

Not Working : http://www.gsmforum.es/showthread.ph...en-el-iPhone-5 (Img not imported : http://img.applesfera.com/2013/02/fullforce-0.jpg)

How can i fix this ? i dont know why the is some working and others dont ;(

Ok, but there is another forum that has this working. How ?
I mean they do import the image and store it and rename it.
I am not sure if it uses the same mod or any other, or tweaked something in it.

So you think there is any other solution or workaround ?

If an external site refuses hotlinking, for example, it not will be possible to import the images in most cases.

Image does not refuse hotlinking, as i said its working on "others" site. I think is because of the hyphen as u said earlier...

After enabling the mod, I try to upload an attachment and get a blank grey screen. Any ideas?

I disabled this and it works now.

Is this suggestion implemented? I think it is very interesting and useful,

Thanks,

You may invert the search order and thus backup the newest threads first. However, this has some backdraws on large boards, such as much slower queries from MySQL.

I don't understand this, because the idea is only to import external images in one thread, not in the newest ones,... For example in the threadID=2345 (In all posts in that thread. ) or in one post postID=234567 (For example if you want to promote to article that post/thread,...).

Any ideas?

Thanks!!!!

Nope ... this isn't going to be implemented any time soon ...

:(

Ok, Thanks, I'll continue looking to get this functionality,

I installed this mod works fine
Now came the question:
Is there any prospect of adding to Import images of the social groups

thank you

not yet ... but I take note :)

it dosent work for me / my version 4.2.1 / how can i use it for this v ? it isn't work , is it ? i guess

I don't know. Maybe your hosting does not allow external URL's to get imported.

How can you tell if this is the case, because this mod worked prefect for us. But know it does nothing.

Dave

oh well, i guessed :)

did you check the permissions? during upload maybe something has changed. if Apache can't access the import folders, nothing happens.

can you tell me more about that ?

Works on 4.2.1 ? Regards

well simply said, the flders you are using for importing the images must have read/write permissions for the web server (chmod 755 or 777 depending on the server settings) and must be owned by the web process. If you haven't changed these settings during the upgrade process, it should work. However if it isn't you will have to ask somebody to look into it more closely.

for me it works :)

well , thank you so much , but i set it before but it still dosen't work ,

how about server ? can it cause by that ?

if the server settings have changed, it can be caused by a missing CURL module and/or different fopen settings. Or even by a reduction of memory or script timeouts.

Hi Giovanni,

I've installed this on a copy of a large forum with many posts (to test before going live). I would like to only run this on posts one year old or newer since I have been using your 3.x version of this software and have all of my other images cached. Is there a way to set the date where this starts to work? I don't need it or want it to modify posts from 2010 - 2002.

thanks so much!
Kether

You may set (via phpmyadmin) the iei_parsed flag to 1, for all posts you would like to skip.

Is posible add watermark?

No. But you could add your own at server side with image recoding I guess.

I use watermark, its easy just create .htcacces on the folder u save the pics and copy/paste:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^([^tn].*\.(gif|jpg|png))$ /imported_images/watermark.php?image=$1&watermark=watermark.png [NC]

But with this option I had a lot of complaints of my forum users, because they dont like watermark their images :D

I would like to know how to watermark with exceptions such image size, or file size,

Best Regards

This is actually a very nice solution I never thought about :up:

Thanks, using it, does it work for avatars & sig images too?

Nope, only posts.
