Thread Thumbnail · **Released**: 09-20-2007

This plugin is the newest version of the Thread Thumbnail plugin

This plugin will display the first attachment as a thumbnail on forumdisplay.php

New Features:

If there are attachments that are not images, it will skip them and go to the first image attachment.
Optional - you can now display thumbnails on search results.

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.

The plugin comes with the Search Thumbnails enabled. If you do not want to have thumbnails show up in the search results, make sure you deactivate it.

If you would like thumbnails to display in the search results, you will need to replace your search.php page with the one in the zip file. Unfortunately vBulletin forgot to include a hook variable where it is necessary for this to work. I have added 1 line to search.php with the hook variable. There is no way around this until vbulletin adds it themselves.

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 (Optional)

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.

Pretty cool, does it do that in the normal search results as well?

Can you point me to the post describing how to install it that way? It seems like there are a lot of them.

iamthemoz · #**193** 07-16-2008, 02:16 PM

Thank you so much for this plugin. Works great! I was just wondering though, if there is a way to display images as a thumbnail for a thread that are not attachments, but are displayed in the 1st post of a thread?

theOZer · #**194** 07-17-2008, 05:56 PM

Trana,

In AdminCP > Plugins & Products > Plugin Manager
Edit the plugin 'Thread Thumbnail - Search'
Change $tt_displaythumbs to $tt_displaythumbs_search

Code:

$tt_displaythumbs_search = 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 AND (attachment.extension = 'jpg' OR attachment.extension = 'gif' OR attachment.extension = 'png')) ";
	$hook_query_where .= "GROUP BY thread.threadid ";

In threadbit template add an additonal IF statement like you added for the Tag Search changing the IF stmt to check for $tt_displaythumbs_search (versus the Tag Search checking for $tt_displaythumbs_tag).

This is the code I'm using. Yes, this is a monster IF statement. It works. It handles displaying thumbnails for Tag Searches, New Posts & regular Searches, Forums that have been added to the Thread Thumbnail plugin. I have also set up User Profile fields to allow the user to turn On/Off thread thumbnail display and have those checks also in the code.
Note: And, for poops-N-grins, I wrapped all the img code in href tags so you can click on thread thumbnails or the default thread icon to go to the thread.

Code:

<!-- OMAC Thread Thumbnails -->
<if condition="$show['threadicons']">
   <td class="alt2" align="center" valign="middle">
<!-- Tag Search -->
   <if condition="($tt_displaythumbs_tags) AND $bbuserinfo['field9'] <> 'Off'">
     <if condition="($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>

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

where it is??

theOZer · #**198** 07-28-2008, 09:33 PM

AdminCP > Plugins & Products > Plugin Manager, then edit Thread Thumbnails, adding your forums that you want thread thumbnailed.
example, $tt_thumbsforums = array(4, 5, 17, 46, 50, 53);

I don't think thats what he wanted.

What he was trying to was to display linked images as thumbnails too when there are no attachments in the thread. That would be killer.

Trana · #**201** 07-29-2008, 05:52 AM

I don't understand, where do I put this? In threadbit? If it is to display thumbnails in search results is it the same template?

Thanks.
