Textpattern Plugin | rss_thumbpop
All details about this plugin can now be found at its new permanent home.
The rss_thumbpop plugin was conceived as I attempted to build a small image gallery. I wanted to create a thumbnail layout such as the one generated by the cgd_dynagallery plugin but also open a popup window with the full size image as with the dca_pop plugin.
After starting out with a bastardized combination of the two plugins, I decided to take the plunge and create my own so that I could add some additional bells and whistles.
Example
<txp:rss_thumbpop category="thumbpop" mode="float" label="My Pictures" orderby="caption" pagepop="1" padheight="100" limit="3" />
.rssThumbFloat {
float: left;
width: 150px;
border: 1px solid #999;
margin: 0 15px 15px 0;
padding: 5px;
text-align: center;
font-size: .85em;
}
Black Rock Cove
Black Sands Beach
Mars on Kauai
Sample prev/next links styling:
ul#rssThumbNav {
list-style-type: none;
margin: 0;
padding: .5em 0;
border-top: 1px solid #666;
}
ul#rssThumbNav li a {
display: block;
width: 5em;
color: #FFF;
background-color: #036;
padding: .2em 0;
text-align: center;
text-decoration: none;
}
ul#rssThumbNav li a:hover {
color: #FFF;
background-color: #69C;
}
ul#rssThumbNav .left { float: left; }
ul#rssThumbNav .right { float: right; }
Another Example
<txp:rss_thumbpop category="thumbpop" mode="table" orderby="date asc" showcaption="0" showalt="1" jpop="1" cols="3" showfullcaption="1" clickonly="1" />

Another hint: in the script the path “images/” is hardcoded. I changed it in the database, so it would be better to use “img_dir” from table “txp_prefs”.

hi, its me again…
I loaded the thumbpop plugin and all I can see is the grey boxes with captions in them – no thumbnails. I have loaded a couple of other image gallery plugins, but it doesn’t help to de-activate them…Any pointers please?

Hi there, I’m trying to use the article thumbs and having a few problems:
– article is at http://www.streetdaddy.com/news/101/
– i have 3 images in the category ‘article-101’
– nothing displays…
nb. IGNORE the 3 images that you CAN see, they’re output using a different txp.

nb. again The 3 images that you can see are output with txp:rss_thumbpop but using category=”article-101”

Hi, your plugin was very easy to implement. Is it possible to open the pic. in the same window instead of a popup?

Have you notice the validation errors? I am puzzled as to what is throwing these. This page throws:
Line 195, column 26: document type does not allow element “div” here; missing one of “object”, “applet”, “map”, “iframe”, “button”, “ins”, “del” start-tag
And the site I have been playing with throws the same exact error over and over. div looks fine there as far as I can tell.

Hi, GREAT plugin, however:
Keep getting this error on my pages using the plugin:
..mysite../textpattern/lib/txplib_misc.php(304) : eval()’d code on line 129
If anyone know where to make a change, please help me. Thanx!

I’m using rev 280 and it works for me with no problem. Can you post or email me and show me how you’re calling the plugin?

I love this in conjuction with the Automatic Resize & Thumbnail’s hack. So nice!
2 questions:
1) I can’t kill the border on linked thumbnails for some browsers, thumb borders show in Firefox and they show the default border color in PC Explorer, while other browsers are perfect, well .. Safari and Omniweb of course. I tried border=”0” on many style tags but they still show in IE and Ffox.
and …
b) when I set the thumbs to mode=”float” there is aprox 200 pixel gap under the thumbnail which I have not been able to isolate and kill, so I can’t place thumbs above anything if I float. The mode=table works really well but I was hoping not to table.
again, nice stuff …
thx

This would be the ultimate plugin except that…
I’m having some problems getting the articlethumbs to work in RC3? Anyone else having these issues – or that can offer some help!
Thanks! Great plugin!

Hi,
I updated the rssthumbpop plugin to the latest version(0.5.1) on txp rev336 but gets the following error (pls visit http://www.jennyishere.net/article/184/textpattern-10rc2- for live example):
Error 8 Undefined variable: artcat in rss_thumbpop(), /home/jennycheuk/public_html/textpattern/lib/txplib_misc.php(352) : eval()'d code line 129
Error 8 Undefined variable: divimg in rss_thumbpop(), /home/jennycheuk/public_html/textpattern/lib/txplib_misc.php(352) : eval()'d code line 173
Error 8 Undefined variable: i in rss_thumbpop(), /home/jennycheuk/public_html/textpattern/lib/txplib_misc.php(352) : eval()'d code line 218
and the code I used inside is the following:
< txp:rss_thumbpop category="b-lang" mode="float" label="Screenshots" nopop="0" / > // spaces added after < & before > here//
Can you help to figure out what’s going wrong? Thanks so much!!
(In fact I’m having so many plugin errors on my site now so I’m not sure if it is a conflict between rssthumbpop with the others…..)

My Textpattern version is : 1.0rc5 (r705)
and I downloaded today the latest version of rss_thumbpop. Now I get the following messages at top of the page :
Notice: Undefined variable: artcat in /home/..../public_html/meanmachine/textpattern/lib/txplib_misc.php(429) : eval()’d code on line 95
Notice: Undefined variable: divimg in /home/..../public_html/meanmachine/textpattern/lib/txplib_misc.php(429) : eval()’d code on line 139
Notice: Undefined variable: i in /home/....public_html/meanmachine/textpattern/lib/txplib_misc.php(429) : eval()’d code on line 184
The gallery works though, but the error message appears only when using rss_thumbpop-tag… Any suggestions?

Eh, found the “plugin errors” post on the front page. Problem solved (site was in debug-mode). ;)

Hi,
I am running version 0.5.3 and TXP 4.0 and everything works perfect (excellent plugin) but I have a slight problem with it. Not sure if it’s in the PHP coding or not but:
when my thumnail gallery is loading for the first time the following text appears above the full size pic “Mouse over a thumbnail to view”. Fine, but after clicking one of the thumbnails this text changes to “null”.
Seems like there is a problem with the call to the MySQL db? (I’m running IE 6).
Hope you can help me out because I can’t find any information in the TXP forum.

Would love to try this plugin, but I got “plugin install failed” error message, preview was OK though.
My Textpattern is version 4.0.3, MySQL, running on XP with IIS.
BTW, if the images are of different pixel sizes, would the popped window resize accordingly ?
Thanks.

does anyone know how to change the background color in the window that pops up to display the full sized version of the image?

I have used rss_thumbpop plugin in website. It’s great plugin people like me. Appreciate for this work to author.
I have run a problem. On prev/next links
When clicked on Next button then it takes to homepage instead of showing rest of images. URL on Next button is something like( www.site.com/index.php?tpg=2) but it redirects to homepage.
What is my mistake? Any suggestions for me. Thanks all

Fantastic. More flexible and configurable than I had imagined at first (once you get the hang of it).
Thanks for an amazing plug-in.
