Thread Thumbnail · **Released**: 10-17-2005

The new version is available here.

This plugin was based on Thumbnail of Attachments on forum display by Dechevious(I hope its alright with you)

It is mostly the same converted to the new 3.5 hook. I also fixed the "If the attachment is not an image, a thumbnail will not be shown" problem.

Note: This plugin works in v3.68

Installation:

In your AdminCP, go to Plugin System, Download/Upload Plugins and import the xml document.

Be sure to change the forum ids in the $thumbsforums array to the forum ids you want to enable thumbnails in.

Next you will need to modify your threadbit template:

Find:

Code:

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

Replace With:

Code:

<if condition="$show['threadicons']">
	<td class="alt2" align="center" valign="middle">
			<if condition="$tt_displaythumbs">
				<if condition="($thread['attachmentid']) AND ($thread['thumbsize'])">
			     	<a href="showthread.php?$session[sessionurl]t=$thread[threadid]">
			          	<img src="attachment.php?attachmentid=$thread[attachmentid]&stc=1&thumb=1" alt="" border="0" />
			        </a>
			     <else />
			        <img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/nothumb.jpg" alt="" border="0" />
			     </if>
			<else />
				<if condition="$show['threadicon']">
			     <img src="$thread[threadiconpath]" alt="$thread[threadicontitle]" border="0" />
				 </if>
			</if>
	</td>
</if>

You will also need to upload an image to display if there are no image attachments here: $stylevar[imgdir_misc]/nothumb.jpg(ex: http://www.mysite.com/forums/images/misc/nothumb.jpg). I've made a simple one you can use or you can make your own. By default thumbnails are confined in a 100x100 px area, I found that it looks good to make the "no image" image about 100x83 px.

__________________________________________________ ___

Add-ons

UserCP option to turn the thumbnails on/off on a per user basis

Go into your admincp and click User Profile Fields->Add New User Profile Field.

Select "single selection radio buttons", click continue.

For title put "Thread Thumbnails", for description put "This will allow you to turn the thumbnails of threads on and off."

For options, enter "On" and "Off".

Skip down to Display Page and choose "Options: Thread Viewing".

In your threadbit template(assuming you already applied the template changes above):

Find:

Code:

<if condition="$tt_displaythumbs">

Replace with:

Code:

<if condition="($tt_displaythumbs) AND ($bbuserinfo['field5'] <> 'Off' OR $show['guest'])">

You need to replace field5 with the field name of the profile field you created earlier.

Have you installed any other hacks?

bpn · #23 10-19-2005, 03:18 AM

This is the one I got

PHP Code:


			
 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> 
<plugins>
<plugin active="1" product="vbulletin">
<title>Thread Thumbnail</title>
<hookname>forumdisplay_query</hookname>
<phpcode><![CDATA[$thumbsforums = array(2, 3);
$displaythumbs = false;
if (in_array($forumid, $thumbsforums)) {
$displaythumbs = true;
$hook_query_fields = ", attachment.thumbnail_filesize AS thumbsize , MIN(attachment.attachmentid) AS attachmentid ";
$hook_query_joins = "LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "attachment as attachment ON(attachment.postid = thread.firstpostid) ";
$hook_query_where .= "GROUP BY thread.threadid ";
}]]></phpcode>
</plugin>
</plugins>

Yes, I have a few hacks like: VB category Icons, Welcome PM, V3 arcade, Sort by Newest Thread, Allow thumbnail view per usergroup (tried to disable this), & Thread starter column

jasonmerchant · #24 10-19-2005, 04:18 AM

You have the right plugin code and now I'm thinking because of the number of hacks you have installed, there may be some conflict. I tried to locate some of them and saw that VB category Icons is only for rc1 and rc2, what version are you running(in this case I don't think that will effect it but I'll check it out anyway)? I'll try and look through some of them tomorrow and see if I can find the conflict as I have 4 hours left to sleep...

bpn · #25 10-19-2005, 04:24 AM

I just tried to disable that hack aswell without luck & I am running 3.5.0
Ok, thanks for checking it out, I sure hope you can find out what's wrong

GrendelKhan{TSU · #26 10-19-2005, 05:25 AM

question:

can this be applied/controlled for specific forums only? (so I can exclude or include this function depending on the forums)

yes..."Be sure to change the forum ids in the $thumbsforums array to the forum ids you want to enable thumbnails in."

jasonmerchant · #28 10-19-2005, 07:40 PM

bpn:
I think I may have solved your problem, my previous code was replacing any changes to the query hook variable. This may have been what was conflicting with your other hacks. Try it out and let me know how it goes

I've tried it on the default style and still getting the same problem - threads do not display. The moment I specify some forum id's in the array, those forums threads are then all hidden.

Here is the template as requested:

HTML Code:

<tr>
	<td class="alt1" id="td_status_$thread[realthreadid]">
		$thread[openclose_editable]
		<img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/thread$thread[statusicon].gif" id="thread_status_$thread[realthreadid]" alt="<if condition="$show['threadcount']"><phrase 1="$thread[dot_count]" 2="$thread[dot_lastpost]">$vbphrase[have_x_posts_in_thread_last_y]</phrase></if>" border="" />
	</td>
	<if condition="$show['threadicons']">
	<td class="alt2" align="center" valign="middle">
	<if condition="$show['threadicon']">

		</td>
	</if>
</tr>

and here is the code:

Code:

$thumbsforums = array(210);
$displaythumbs = false;
if (in_array($forumid, $thumbsforums)) {
	$displaythumbs = true;
	$hook_query_fields = ", attachment.thumbnail_filesize AS thumbsize , MIN(attachment.attachmentid) AS attachmentid ";
	$hook_query_joins = "LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "attachment as attachment ON(attachment.postid = thread.firstpostid) ";
	$hook_query_where .= "GROUP BY thread.threadid ";
}

Thanks

trancetopia:
It looks as though you are running into the same problem as bpn, and I would guess you have installed other plugins for the forumdisplay_query hook? I believe this is solved with the last update 30 minutes ago. Redownload the xml and check if it is solved

trancetopia · #31 10-19-2005, 08:31 PM

I've downloaded the file again, uninstalled the hook code and re-installed with the version I just downloaded and I'm still getting the same problem

There is only one plugin occupying the forumdisplay_query hook and that is your "Thread Thumbnail" plugin.

Anything else you want me to try?
