Hello you all.
Can someone explain me how to use the thumbnail generation feature inside the mod_frontpage, since I'm able to get the thumbnail randomly ?
Can someone explain the rules ?
I searched the forum and I don't have found any solution.
I cleared the cache and the temp files on site too but always I can't have all the thumbnail.
I hope someone can help me.
Thank you you all.
PS. Happy easter !!!

yes exactly...

I tried different options but to no avail, the first and third post constructed in exactly the same, but the result can be seen.
I think that if the script can not create a preview of it simply loads a picture from the category description (section)

yes ... it will try to build the thumbnail and if no success the images story will be loaded. But the question is why it can't create the thumbnail? I used the same image of a different article where the thumbnail was successfully created but no success.
Maybe is someting related to the image name ... I really don't know. This was the reason of my original post.
Thank you.

Module Frontpage and Module eblog Frontpage (http://www.elxis-downloads.com/downloads/blog/279.html) uses the below process regarding the thumbnail generation :
1. Search the html code of each article if there is any "<img" code.
2. if yes then looking for src="" of each image [Image URL]
3. Displays the image.
Html source code of image :
<img src="http://www.mydomain.com/images/image1.jpg " title="Image Title" alt="Image Description" />
In case that there are more than one images then displays the last one.
!Important : At the Image URL preferred to write such as : http://www.mydomain.com/images/image1.jpg

Thank you Webgift for your answers !!! Maybe I've found the problem ... I'll confirm if this. What I can say right now that the problem is folder name related. If the folder that contain the image have space inside the name example "San Pietro Apostolo" the thumbnail is not generated ... otherwise if the images is contained in a folder that don't have space inside the name (example: San_Pietro_Apostolo) the thumbnail is generated.
Please wbread can you canfirm this too ?.
If this scenario is confirmed can this problem be considered a bug ? :D..
Thank you you all.
-
Yes. that's the issue.
Spaces between the folder or file names not recommended. ;)
-
Yes, if the file name contains spaces then displays the total picture category (section)
the same result with relative paths
Maintain aspect ratio: does not always work, or rather saw his work only 1 times
if you set only the width then the height will default to 64
bug only in Maintain aspect ratio
In case that there are more than one images then displays the last one.
tried it with two pictures, a preview of the same first image
interchanging the images obtained the same result, displays the first of two
solution
1. to properly display the main page should pick up a picture of identical proportions
2.in the introductory text to insert container code, it miniatures for the front page
<div style="display: none;">
<img title="Yumekui Merry" src="http://domein.com/images/covers/cover_for_frontpage.jpg" alt="frontpage" /> </div>
style="display: none;" it does not appear anywhere except the front page
other options I do not see
-
wbread, I don't understand you regarding the ratio of thumbnails. The parameters are : Show thumbnail , width , height and keep ratio. All of these parameters must be set. If no then takes the default parameters. It's simple.
These modules displays images from 1. content items , 2. autonomous pages and 3. eblog posts and not from categories ( sections ).
-
If this option is enabled display thumbnails, but in the text there is no image then used a picture from the description of the category or section.
as shown in the picture in my post - I have 3 articles, 2 of them have pictures to describe, in the third not.
All options were included, the height, width, proportioning.
immediately noticeable that the proportions of the third article are not complied
-
If this option is enabled display thumbnails, but in the text there is no image then used a picture from the description of the category or section.
Then displays story.png image which is under /images/M_images/ folder.
-
yes, but if set in options - show the category description (section) and put there a picture, preview of it is taken from the description, as I have
-
Hm , We are talking for different things.
I talk for module Frontpage which has the parameters below. Not for component frontpage.

Unfortunately i can't mention anything about frontpageplus module.I haven't installed - tested - checked ;).
I can advise you only for Module FrontPage and Module eblog FrontPage :)
-
I did not notice any difference ;D
-
I don't know maybe there are differences at source code.
