Looking for thumbnail direct link Options

[kewlieo]

Hi there,

Im looking to set up hot linking to my images, i have set it up already for users to get the images and show them in forums/html/direct link ( ".$direct_link." ) as full size. But im wondering how would i show the direct link to the thumbnail?

Hope that this can be done

Thanks
Steve

Hi there, Just suffix your full-size image with the the "thumbnail suffix" string defined in Admin CP -> Setup & Configuration.

And for the medium-sized version, link to the following (fill in the arguments shown in all-caps accordingly)

CODE

http://<<PATH_TO_GALLERY>>/thumbify.php?pic=<<FILE_NAME>>&w=<<FULL_SIZE_WIDTH&h=<<FULL_SIZE_HEIGHT>>&folder=uploads&smart_resize=0

Depending on what software you use for your forums, it may or may not allow you to post links to dynamically-generated images. Assuming you're using Apache and have mod_rewrite turned on, you can just stick a .htaccess file in your directory and add rules to rewrite a normal-looking URL to the one above.

Hope that helps.

Thanks,
However i have solved this another way, after starring at the coding for a few hours i did this:

I inputted this code into my pic details page just above where i wanted to put the hotlink section.

CODE

$at_full = getPicturesPath($config, $row['file_name'], 0);
$at_full_server = getPicturesPath($config, $row['file_name'], 1);
$at_thumb = getThumbPath($at_full, $at_full_server, $config['thumb_suffix']);

And used the output as

CODE

$at_thumb[0]

Hope this helps someone else.
