I have no knowledge about the coding. But if i take a look in the plugin it seems that only the database names changed?

Sweet! He's back! I can't wait. MOTM if you ask me.

BTW: Suggestion: Is it possible for a user to Flag an attachment as the thread thumbnail rather then it drawing from the first attachment, first image, or URL?

After upload it asks, "Set as thread thumbnail? Yes/No"

Just a thought.

Thanks for you contribution!

When Thread Thumbnails is working I see only one thread in threads list. How to fix it?

I also would love to see this ported to VB4, this is a must have mod for Movie Sites Like Mine. I would Also Donate. Contact me if you need a server and site to test this on I can give you both.

Is there a way to make it check for:

Thumbnail URL.
if no URL, use first attachment.
if no attachment, use first IMG tag in whole thread.

If this exists, how make work?

Also. How do you make the thumbnail image replace "forum_new.gif" on the Forumhome ?

There is currently no way to use every option like that, but it has been discussed as a possible future feature.

There is also no option to display it on the forumhome, although I'm not exactly sure why you would want that anyway when the thumbnails are for an individual thread and not the forum.

A very big thanks to Mike_K, as he has setup a test forum for me to develop on. And thank you to the several other people that also offered.

At this time, I have most of the functionality ported over to vB4. The issues I'm still trying to deal with is the threadbit Auto-Template edit, Attachments and Search integration (search has changed a lot).

I've also been improving things quite a bit, like allowing any CSS style on the thumbnail, so you can specify width, height, max-width, max-height, margins, borders and any other CSS property you wish to apply to the thumbnails.

Got everything updated to vB4! New mod is posted for your enjoyment.

Also update this version of the mod to fix the First Attachment DB Error as well as include the fix for using First Image in Post for new threads.

Thanks again to everybody that helped get this going again and those that assisted people in my absence.

That is currently an option in the vB4 version, but not in this one. If there's demand for it, I could probably port that functionality back here as well.

How can I manually add this to a custom style? I have a custom style that has basic functionality and I would like to know what code this MOD is calling that my style does not have and therefore not displaying the thumbnails.

Works great on all fully functional styles.

Thanks in advance =]

I was able to get it to work and this is my final code. I'd really appreaciate it if you could take a minute to review it and see if there is anything I could change to improve it.

Code:

<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">

<if condition="$bg++"><!-- Row: $bg --></if>

<tr class="<if condition="$bg%2 == 0">alt2<else />alt1</if>" height="40px">

<td width="24">

                <if condition="$show[threadicons]">

          <td class="alt2" align="center" valign="middle">

                  <if condition="$thread[thumbnaildisplay] AND !$thread[sticky]">

                           <a href="showthread.php?$session[sessionurl]t=$thread[threadid]">

                            <img src="$thread[thumbnailurl]" alt="" border="0" width="61"/>

                          </a>

                  <else />

                      <if condition="$show[threadicon]">

                       <img src="$thread[threadiconpath]" alt="$thread[threadicontitle]" border="0" />

                      </if>

Installed, but no thumbnails are showing up.

Ok sorted that out, had to add the width manually.

But is there a way to update all old threads so the thumbnails show up?

Very nice hack but I have a problem with it. I use "First Attachment as the option for displaying the thumbnail but whenever the user does not have any attachments in the thread, nothing shows in the forum column. No thread icon or no "Nothumb.jpg" image even if I have define to use one image if there is none uploaded by the user. The path for nothumb.jpg is correct.

The result is not really nice since it only shows thumbnails for users who have attachments and it shows empty spots everywhere else. So, all the thread icons have disapeared and/or no "Nothumb.jpg" image is showing. I used to have what you see on the first picture but now I have what you see on the second picture.

Why is it doing that and am I the only one for which this is happening?

I chose automatic template edits in the options but, if I decide to choose to do manual edits for the templates, where are they? There is nothing in the readme talking about manual template edits besides those if you upgrade from a previous version.

Cybershaolin

04-06-2010 02:56 AM

I found out what's happening:

1- If you use the option "First Attachment: If the user adds an attachment to the thread, the first image attachment will be used as the thumbnail."
- The thumbnail is diplayed correctly as shown in my previous post in the attached screenshots.
- There is nothing else shown if no attachment is present, No "Nothumb.jpg" picture or no thread icon, just a blank space, again, as shown in my previous post in the attached screenshots.

2- If you use the option "First Image In Post: If the user adds an image into their post, via [IMG] tags, then the first image in the post will be used as the thumbnail."
- The thumbnail is diplayed correctly in the forum.
- If no attachment is present, then the picture "Nothumb.jpg" picture displays correctly if we choose to display it or the thread icon also displays correctly if this option is retained.

Therefore, for me, only the option "First image in Post" works correctly for the thread icon or the "Nothumb.jpg" picture to appear when there is no IMG tag in the post.

The problem is that I don't want to use this option or the URL option either. I want to use the option "First Attachment"! So is there a fix for this? And finally, is it possible to get the template manual edits?

It would be nice if people realized that developers don't surround their lives around a single project. Seriously, if people can't have patience, then I'm just going to mark this as Not Supported and be done with it, especially since I don't even have a vBulletin forum anymore and I'm doing this ONLY for you.

I uploaded a new version that should fix this issue, but again, since I don't have a forum of my own anymore, I have no way to actually test it.

You should theoretically be able to extract the template edits yourself from the product file, just as easily as I could, but because I'm just that nice, here they are....

In editpost, find  and put this below it:

Code:

<if condition="$isfirstpost AND $showthumbnailedit"> <if condition="$vbulletin->GPC[advanced]"> <input type="hidden" name="desc_adv_thumb" value="1" /> </if> <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" style="margin-bottom:$stylevar[formspacer]px\"> <tr> <td class="smallfont" colspan="3">Thumbnail URL:</td> </tr> <tr> <td><input type="text" class="bginput" name="thumbnailurl" value="$threadinfo[thumbnailurl]" size="50" maxlength="250" tabindex="1.5" title="" /></td> </tr> </table> </if>
In newthread, find  and put this below it:

Code:

<if condition="$showthumbnailedit"><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" style="margin-bottom:$stylevar[formspacer]px"><tr><td class="smallfont" colspan="3">Thumbnail URL:</td></tr><tr><td><input type="text" class="bginput" name="thumbnailurl" value="$threadinfo[thumbnailurl]" size="50" maxlength="250" tabindex="1.5" title="" /></td></tr></table></if>
In threadbit, find

Code:

<if condition="$show[threadicons])> <td class="alt2"><if condition="$show[threadicon]><img src="$thread[threadiconpath]" alt="$thread[threadicontitle]" border="0" /></if></td></if>

and replace it with

Code:

<if condition="$show[threadicons]"> <td class="alt2" align="center" valign="middle"> <if condition="$thread[thumbnaildisplay] AND (($vbulletin->options[thread_thumbnails_sticky] == '1') OR !$thread[sticky]))> <a href="showthread.php?t=$thread[threadid]"> <img src="$thread[thumbnailurl]" alt="" border="0" width="$thread[thumbnailwidth]"/> </a> <else /> <if condition="$show[threadicon]> <img src="$thread[threadiconpath]" alt="$thread[threadicontitle]" border="0" /> </if> </if> </td></if>

Truthfully, this one's a little rough, but it should be right.

Cybershaolin

04-10-2010 01:45 AM

Thanks for the update but this does not resolve the "First attachment" option. There is still nothing that shows if no attachment is there. There is no thread icon or nothumb.jpg picture showing depending on what I want to be displayed.

Also, in your last template edits, for threadbit, when I change it according to what you are saying, it vbulletin does not want to update it saying there are errors. Having no coding skills, I'm back to square one.

It's such a nice hack, just too bad that it's not working entirely. I hope that you can still fix the bugs but without vbulletin to test, I have no idea how you can manage to do it. Therefore if you don't update it anymore, I guess you're right and you should think about marking it as not supported.

siliconfinance

04-12-2010 06:21 AM

Just out of curiosity, could you make it possible to display a thumbnail of the first image displayed in a thread and if there is none, then display a thumbnail of the attached image.

So based on this page:
http://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/t...e_conditionals

Code:

 

<If condition="there is an image in IMG tags in the first post">Display a thumbnail of that image in the forum display</if>

 

<else /> 

 

<if condition="there is an image attached to the first post of a thread">Display a thumbnail of that image in the forum</if>

 

<else />

 

Display default thumbnail NoImage.jpg

I just noticed a bug which does the following on my site.

In the admincp in feature Show in what forums? I have forum ID 225 which means that the thread thumbnail option should only be available in forum 225 and not others is not working, in fact it shows up in just about every forum???????
What is the deal with this? I am running vb 3.8.3

Would there be a chance of allowing more than one default image.
So if a user didnt put in a thumbnail image, it would pull a random image from a group of 10?

default1.jpg
defaultt2.jpg
etc

picks one and displays that.
