Thread Thumbnail

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:

<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:

<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:

<if condition="$tt_displaythumbs">

Replace with:

<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.

Is it possible to display the thread thumbnails to guests even if "Can Download Attachments" is set to no for guests in the usergroup manager?

I want guests to be able to see the thumbnails but not be able to download the full size images.

a usergroup option would be great..........

I installed the plugin... modified the threadbit and uploaded the image.

Next to every thread I just get the nothumbnail image.

I just downloaded this so I am guessing I have the newest version of it.

Here is what my threadbit template looks like

<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>

any help? i'd LOVE to get this working.

Thanks,

I cant figure out how to get it to apply to a forum. I dont understand what forum array means. What would i edit in the xml to make it apply to everone of the listing forums located here www.ezbst.com ?

[lazyseller]

forum array is the forumid of the forum... you go into the forum manage located int he admin panel and hover your pointer over the forum title and you will see the Forumid

(3,4,5) will allow this mod to work in forums 3,4,5

I got the same problem, I'm using vb 3.5.2 though!

Somehow this line is never TRUE for my forum:

<if condition="($thread['attachmentid']) AND ($thread['thumbsize'])">

I tried to search the variable $thread['attachmentid'] and $thread['thumbsize'], there's none of them in existing vb3.5.2 templates. Don't know if that would cause the problem?

Ever get this to disable for user on dialup?
