Wp-Thumbie WordPress Plugin From Blogsdna Lab

Awesome Plugin Sandip Sir!!!
Have installed it on my blog http://www.PcDrome.com …

Really cool plugin Sandip.. Hope to see some more plugins from you….

Good one, the feed version of this plugin is messed up on your feed, some alignment issues.

Thanks @nirmal Yea I know that issue, have planned to implement stylesheet for feeds to retain styling. Will work on that part for next plugin update

Sandip, great job congrats.

simply brilliant jobs and thanks for the share, i’ll try out this plugins soons.

Awesome! I am gonna use it as alternative to Linkwithin. Congrats Sandip, Really a good one!

Congrats on your first plugin Sandip. It looks good. For the RSS feeds you might want to switch to using inline styles as RSS does not support external CSS.

Nice plugin Sandeep.. hope to see some quick update on this plugin soon!!

Hi,
The plugin looks good but upon installing it, the thumbnails are not appearing !

I have the same problem as paritosh

Awesome workout there i am gonna use this now

I just found this plugin n SML.its looking very useful plugin..I am implementing on my blog ..lets see how it works..

Problem rectified, thanks to the creator. He was of real help !!!! And the plugin is ****ing awesome.

Hmm. Looks nice, but thumbnails aren’t appearing for me either. T_T Help? Have set thumbie (recursed into all the subfolders) to 777..

There’s also a minor problem with grabbing the excerpts; when my posts start with an image gallery, the plugin ends up grabbing the entire gallery instead. But I don’t need it, and I can live with it. XD

Thanks for the credit :)

does this work with WPMU?

I am using linkwithin from more than 2 months now. and i am impressed with it. I came to know about this from Shoutmeloud and felt very happy to see this.

I will try this out this evening. and replace linkwithin.

Thanks…

Thank you for the plugin

Hello, this is an awesome plugin, but unfortunately I am a bit confused with thumbnails. My issue is that they do not appear!

I am testing it locally running wamp, so permissions are for sure 777 and i have GD Library activated. What am I doing wrong?

Thank you for your time and your help on advance.

A feature request : If possible add a column to specify a default image in case any post does not have an image..

Fantastic plugin! Many thanks.

Is it possible to exclude image caption code from the excerpt? Most of my posts begin with an image and the excerpt displays –
[caption id=”attachment_610″ align=”alignleft” width=”185″ caption=” – etc, etc.

Thanks again

Hi,

I’ve installed the plugin but the thumbnails don’t appear. I’ve changed the permissions of wp-thumbie folder and nothing. The plugin takes an image of the post content or the thumbnail of the post?
Maybe someone could help me,

Thanks,

Hi,
I am the same that the previous comment. This is the code that generates the plugin in my page:

thanks,

Hello,
nice plugin but as I use another plugin (Post Thumb ) to create thumbnails I wonder how to adapt your plugin to use Post Thumb instead of Timthumb ?

Instead of

I need

Great idea, but… does not work for me – it makes some syntax errors on all my single post pages. I have unchecked “Add related posts to the post content on single posts” option on Wp-Thumbie settings page and then I added the code as advised above:

php if(function_exists (’ wp_thumbie ‘)) wp_thumbie(); ?>

I use Wordpress 2.8.4 and Thesis Theme.

Hi,
great plugin.. just one question.. and a little issue to add to the next release..

It’s better that u make to people possible to open the new pages in _blank or not… I don’t wont the pages to open in _blank but i can’t find how to change it…

Any idea?

fyi, this does not work with wpmu. too bad. any plans to make it compatible?

Hello, the thumb dont work for me. I have set 777 permissions and i have GD library. I use 000webhost free.

What am I doing wrong?

Thank you.

Great plugin. Works flawlessly. The only changes I made was the CSS so that the look matches my blog. Thanks!

Hoping there’s some support for this plugin.

I have the same issue as Todor Christov. When you click a related link, it opens a new window or tab.

Rather then opening a new tab, the page should load in the browser window currently being used.

How would I fix this?

Thank you

Re: links opening a new tab or window.

There seems to be a typo error in wp-thumbie/wp-thumbie.php

In the section “//————–Code to Output WP-Thumbie in Verticle Format—-” the underscore is missing from
” target=”_top” for the $title link.

Hope that helps.

It’s exactly what I am looking for. Yesterday I just tried using a widget called linkwithin hosted script on their site that it looks cool but it consumes a lot of your computer resources and it’s not compatible with adsense either. You’re the man!

It’s not working at all The thumbnails don,t show up

There are tons of bugs here. It displays the same posts!

Hi Sandip, my problem cannot be solved due to the theme issue as I emailed to you. This was confirmed by the theme owner.

Same problem as many others. No thumbnails, but an ugly vertical border. I also have my permissions set and GD library. Looking for another solution or going back to Contextual Related Posts until there’s an update that fixes this.

nice plugin.. but the backlink annoys me alot..

The “exclude categories” option does not work! For some reason, the list of category IDs that I enter is not being saved when I “Save Options”.

I don’t get the people saying it’s buggy. I’m not having any issues and hell, the developer is using it on his own site and there are no bugs. I think these people did something wrong.

It shows a blank thumbnail instead of the real thumbnail, as seen here:
http://bombsanddollars.com/index/2009/10/dollar-tanking/

(Note as to what thumbnail code is used for the thumbnail?)

I LOVE this plug in..I use Thesis and I am thinking about losing the previews and just having a long list of Thumbies instead on each page. I have only one problem. I have some charts that pull through in their full size at the same time my post image comes through. Since they are all statistic related pages (run along sidebar)they pull three statistics pages as thumbies..I have stacked charts that are full sized all along the bottom along with my thumbies of the image I posted.

Great plugin. Going to give it aa try on my blog.

Does this work when you host your images in photobucket ? The plugin is not working here and I think that maybe it is the problem…

Thank you so much for the plug in. Like a few others, I am not able to display the thumbnail.

http://opticalillusion.site11.com/?p=53

What thumbnail code should I use for the thumbnail? Not sure what I am doing wrong. =(

Thank you for creating this plug in.

What is the trick to get your thumbnail to display? I’ve set all my folder/sub folder to 777, but still trying to get it to work. =(

Hi! This is a nice plugin. However not working with my blog. No thumbnails. CHMOD done. Also upgraded to 0.1.6
Still no thumbnails. Am using Thesis theme.

I am already using timthumb…I wonder why this is why my site doesn’t display the related posts thumbnail. I want to keep using it as my main form of pulling the first image from the post to use on my mainpage but was hoping you could advise as to whether or not this also stuffs up the timthumb embedded in the wp thumbie plugin?

It is definitely not showing the thumbnails as its designed. I have the latest WP and have permissions 777.

Aother thing, I can’t find where I am meant to edit in the stlye.css or single.php to change the way related posts are displayed. ADo you have help on this one? Cheers for creating this plugin. Is pretty cool.

Very cool plugin! I hope you can help me:

Issue: Thumbnail does not display

I have the following set : permissions 777 and using latest version 0.1.6.

Sandip,

I´d like to congratulate you for this plugin, very well done.

I do however have a question. Is it possible, in the future, to be able to relate posts via tags instead of content? I think that the way that WP uses tags as keywords could be useful here, and also consume less resources that way. Similar to how the Simple Tags plugin work.

Keep up the good work!

hi, i has install it. but the thumbnail are not display. why?

thanks for informaiton,

I wish you would answer some of the questions here on the comments, so users could try solutions you have already come up with instead of waiting for an answer.

Im trying this on my test site, but thumbnails don’t seem to work. I’ve changed the permissions for the cache. What else should I try?

Is it possible to configure this plugin to work with a black background rather than a while one? My blog has a black background and WP-thumbie shows up as a big white block on my page. Can the background be make black and the text be made white?

Great plugin.

Mark

Hi there. Thanks so much for coding this, great time saver on my end. Thought I’d point out a little bug that might save some folks some trouble if they are coding a theme and using this though. I was having a bugger of a time trying to track down what was making the floats go bonky when I implemented it, and through much trial and error discovered that, on this site where you have implemented the pugin, your #content li style is applying an additional 3px margin to the bottom of the list, which is not referenced in the wp_thumbie_li css style. I added the extra 3px margin to the wp_thumbie_li style rules in the plugin and voila, perfect. Thanks again~

Me again, I got a little trigger happy with the submit button. I was playing around in your code to implement pulling in an image via a custom field that I already use for thumbnails and wasn’t having much luck – I was trying to use your argument for not finding the img string with another if custom field exists, then and else go to the default image – then just noticed that this ability is upcoming in another release … so, just curious when you’ve got that release planned and if it will perhaps be tomorrow? ;-) hahahahaha. Seriously though, any hints?

Cool plugin!!! Thank you very much!

When do you plan to update it and add horizontal style listing? This feature would be very useful!

I’m looking forward for the next version… (:

Love, love, love this plugin. However, Firebug is giving me an error:
The stylesheet http://www.(domain).com/wp-content/plugins/wp-thumbie/ was not loaded because its MIME type, “text/html”, is not “text/css”.
Any fixes?

Please, tell how can I make inline list?
Yes, I know you’re going to include this feature in the next version, but I really need it.. Because I have a photoblog (without any articles) and want to show related photos. But with vertical list all photos are on the left and on the right is just empty space.. It’s not very nice.
So how to make horizontal listing ?

Thank you.

Hello, I love the plugin BUT…
I would like to fix the width of a thumbnail to 70 or 80 and use “100%” of the images height (whatever that may be once resized to the width of 70 or 80). Will your plugin do this? I’m just asking before I go ahead and install it…

Any info is appreciated.

I love your plugin but it produces a ton of invalid html. I’m obviously going to attempt to fix this myself or the plug-in is virtually useless.

How can you do to take the pictures smaller and not medium-sized ?

Martin, you can change the size of the thumbnails in your Dashboard->Setttings->Wp-Thumbie

Exelent, perfect!

Than You…

hi, great plugin!, i have a question, if i select “Display Post Excerpt” on admin panel i see this text on post

Fatal error: Call to undefined function mb_strlen() in /home/turistas/public_html/wp-content/plugins/wp-thumbie/wp-thumbie.php on line 252

somebody can helpme to fix this?
thanks

I need to set the whole path for the thumb like you have in here:

http://www.blogsdna.com/wp-content/plugins/wp-thumbie/timthumb.php?src=http://www.blogsdna.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/canonical-url-plugin.png&w=70&h=70&zc=1

instead of

“http://notilogia.com/wp-content/plugins/wp-thumbie/timthumb.php?src=/albums/ad209/notilogia/mariologo.jpg&w=70&h=70&zc=1″

That is what I have now, because I host my photos at an external server (photobucket)

What do I change in the code in this case???

tutsking, yes but the plugin use the middle size image and in the configuration of the plugin only resize the image and still the heavy wight of original image.

Ah, I see what you’re saying now. The difference between what it actually outputs and then re-sizes itself to in the html is very minimal imo, but definitely could be fixed in php. I’ll probably take a look but who knows what will come of it.

To be honest the plug-in needs a fair amount of work for its next update. Hopefully the few issues you and I have found will be fixed sooner than later. :)

Ok, I took a look…

Open up timthumb.php in a text editor. At line 62 there is these two lines of code:

$new_width = 100;
$new_height = 100;

I believe the defualt is 100, but I’ve modified multiple files of this plugin, so I can’t be sure. Just find the lines with $new_width and $new_height. Change the number to what you have in your dashboard, then save, upload, and replace the new timthumb.php file. Clear the images out of your your plugins server cache folder or you might not see any affect. plugins/wp-thumbie/cache

Cheers.

dont work, the url still http://www.hayrecetas.com/wp-content/plugins/wp-thumbie/timthumb.php?src=/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/vieiras-pan-rallado-perejil-236×300.jpg&w=100&h=100&zc=1

and i need the url be this:
http://www.hayrecetas.com/wp-content/plugins/wp-thumbie/timthumb.php?src=/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/vieiras-pan-rallado-perejil-100×100.jpg&w=100&h=100&zc=1

I really like the plugin, but my error log is flooded with messages like:

Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by …wp-thumbie/timthumb.php on line 476

Does anyone have a clue how to fix them?

Love the plugin and it displays related posts when it search for content, but when it search for post title only it cannot find any related posts and the posts practivally have the same name.

I found out the “problem”. Mysql has a length limit on the word one wants to match. The default is 4. Once I changed the words in the title to make sure they were bigger than 4 it was able to find all related post by title. It is possible to change the default length. Follow this link if you would like to know how http://www.electrictoolbox.com/mysql-full-text-index-word-length/.

This is a great plugin. I love it love it love!!! It’s exactely what I’ve been looking for :)

is there a way to paginate the result? If not maybe it could be incorporated in the next version.

Thank you

No upcoming features anymore and there are other better plugins.

“Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by”

An error like this usually means you have unnecessary blank space(s) or empty lines in your php.

hi many thanks for this fantastic plugin. i have a ask. Is it possible to exclude image caption code from the excerpt?

I am having trouble with the getting the thumbnails to display properly. I was using this awesome plugin on one site, but I am in the process of migrating to another site so maybe this has something to do with it (I used wordpress export/import feature)?? Any help would be much appreciated! Thank you!

This is an awesome plugin and it looks great on my sidebar. I was wondering if you could tune it so you can create a popular posts with thumbs plugin?

Keep up your good work,

Greets, Smelly
