Well here my testscenarios :
1 Testserver Windows 7 pro 74bit WAMPP VB 4.1.10 Suit in a subfolder of htdcos called /forums
Everything works fine , Sprites generated and showing up. but TMS doesnt work.

2 Testserver : Debian Squeeze up to date System, Testforum installs on subforum , TMS doesnt Work.

3. my working Forum, without Subfolders . TMS works ?! strange...TMS work like it done before. Well. With the Sprite Addon my Forum Icons (special Addon for it) shows the original Icons and not my special Ones. :) So i cant install that addon. :(

Such behavior shouldnt correlate with your operating system, since we didnt depend on anything the system generates.

The point, that your working forum now doesnt have any problems with TMS, seems strange, so maybe it is a problem with the TMS beta. I think it is the best to see what happens with the next version, maybe it will solve this, since it doenst use TMS anymore.
If not, i will gladly look at this again.

What i am more interested in at this point is the addon you use to change your forum icons. Can you tell me the name of this addon? I dindt get a repsonse from Popa Andrei until now.

Maybe it is even the same addon giorgino used before (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=244351).

Since customize each icon per forum is a built in feature of vBulletin, called forum prefix, (which we support since our first version of this addon, cause we use this ourself), using the built in feature solved this matter for giorgino (and reduces the time of maintenance work, since there is one external addon less)

A fully solution can be found here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....0&postcount=36 (and the following up post by mooff)

@osbes
well, the addon was the same like that from giogino. So i deinstalled and make it with forum prefixes. Works nice .
So the next thing is that i must recompile php to use GD Library 2.36 or higher. Cause php 5.3.3.7 squeeze 7 is compiled with gd 2.3.4.
here the gd Part of my PHP Info :

PHP Code:


		
			
GD Support     enabled
GD Version     2.0
FreeType Support     enabled
FreeType Linkage     with freetype
FreeType Version     2.4.2
T1Lib Support     enabled
GIF Read Support     enabled
GIF Create Support     enabled
JPEG Support     enabled
libJPEG Version     6b
PNG Support     enabled
libPNG Version     1.2.44
WBMP Support     enabled

it would be nicer with ImageMagick 6.x because you dont have to recompile .

The Problem is, that the most icons or graphics not converted into Sprites . Error is : you are using gd version 2.3.4 .....

Nice to hear, that this solved your problem with the forum icons. Maybe this will also be the solution for Popa Andrei (if he currently depends on the same addon instead the built-in solution).

If you are using, the embed version of GD within PHP, this issue is fixed since PHP 5.3.0, so there shouldn't be any need to recompile.

The error regarding the version of GD is experimental and is not included in the upcomming version. The problem with this is, that there is not consequent way the version of GD is adressed by PHP, so we can't make 100% sure that it is the correct version or not.

The main problem with an outdated GD version (and the current only neccesary part to update this) is when your sprite has icons that looks like this: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/246391/Robin_result.png (it is stretched and vertical lines are added), cause before GD 2.0.36 , GD D had a problem handling grayscale images with alpha channel correctly.

There wont be any support for ImageMagick in the next versions, since there is currently no know adapter class which supports GD an ImageMagick. As long as there i no such class, i wont support ImageMagick, since i have to write a big amount of the main part a second time and cant guarantee that it works, since we dont use ImageMagick for our live forum.

Which icons are missing in your sprite?

Pls see the FAQ, for similar problems: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....93&postcount=2 maybe this will help you faster as i can response :)

Hello Osbes,
when do you update for new version?

Hello Gn_Snake,

vbulletin-germany.com released the german version of vB 4.1.10 about 5 hours ago. I think within one week we should be ready to upgrade our live forum and make the final tests with the new version. Shortly after this, we will upload the new version here.

Best regards

Works good except, my icons no longer link to the threads, I am using "Chiplove.9xpro - Thread Thumbnails 2.1" The icons still show up, and they show a link, but they do not redirect to the thread. Also there is an issue where the go to last post icon doesn't show up next to the last poster.

Can this mod be updated with automatic template updates "without" the need for TMS.

I haven't actually tried this yet, but I'm wondering if I can use the hook to include my smilies into the sprite? Or is there another mod that does this?

Installed.

But my Page Speed results still say I should sprite these images:

The following images served from ****.com should be combined into as few images as possible using CSS sprites.

/images/buttons/collapse_40b.png
/images/buttons/report-40b.png
/images/buttons/reputation-40b.png
/images/buttons/search.png
/images/gradients/gradient-greytowhite.png
/images/gradients/grey-up.png
/images/gradients/selected-tab-gradient-with-top-alpha.png
/images/icons/icon1.png
/images/icons/icon10.png
/images/icons/icon11.png
/images/icons/icon3.png
/images/icons/icon5.png
/images/icons/icon7.png
/images/icons/icon9.png
/images/misc/arrow.png
/images/misc/poll_posticon.gif

Did I do anything wrong? My page speed score on google did go up 5 points after installing this.

is this mod supported at all?:confused:

03-29-2012 06:49 AM

I'm wondering that as well. I think this feature (and the benefits of that) is such an essential thing that in general functionality like this should be included in Vbulletin's core.
