I have used this contrib in a few stores and it worked flawlessly. A clients server just upgraded the php software so I did an update to fix some errors and assumed it would fix the thumbs, but it didn't.

My thumbs are not generating, I do not get any errors, and when I view the image the path is correct(http://www.duds4buds.com/product_thumb.php?img=images/Golden-bears_GH.jpg&w=110&h=71) but I just get a path in the browser window instead of a image.

I hope someone can shed some light on my problem,
Todd

I have done a re-write around this, partly as some of the code is bugged but also its very slow on shared servers with processor limits as it requires a new dBase connection for every image.

If there's enough interest I could create a new add-on around that, it would not have all the features of this though.

Given the issues with this I`m not sure its worth de-bugging

[lildog]

Do you know what the issues are off hand? I am not really worried about speed, right now, I just need to get the images working. Is it to do with the upgrade to php 5.3.x?

I also found that the thumbs are being generated just not shown.

Thank you for your time,
Todd

Sorry, it was some time ago I don't remember exactly what, but yes some were to do with display. I ended up scrapping the original and wrote new code.

I also now remember I had an issue with it on the same shop a number of month's ago and was able to fix it. I was unable/unwilling to find the problem this morning and scrapped the contrib. For anyone that views this in the future what (if any) contrib do you recommend for thumbnailing?

This one works ok...but dont use the TimThumb version....

You can for instance use this version: DJStealth 7 Sep 2008

And update the thumbfile with this one: mauriziomagnino 11 Feb 2011

I installed v3 for osc 2.3.1
Strangely, the line
if (!is_file($src)) {  $src = "../images/no_image.jpg"; }
at html_output.php, under catalog/admin/includes/functions, made all my products images
disappear. Removing this line the images comes back.

The banner on the left top is intacted.

This means the test for $src is not a file. Why?

My programs are shown

I'm using otfAutoThumb-v3.0-for-2.3.1 http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/8104 (nobodyfamous 27 Jul 2011)


I made some modification to product_thumb.php :

• block '..' in paths,
  
• lock users into the DIR_WS_IMAGES folder,
  
• make variable names clearer,
  
• simpler modify_tn_path,
  
• remove unneeded calls to modify_tn_path()

The end result can be used on both the catalog and the admin side w/o change.

Source: product_thumb.php

This change might be needed on the admin includes/functions/html_output.php:
inside tep_image()

change

	// Get the image's information
	if ($image_size = @getimagesize($src)) {

to

	$FS_img = $src;
	if (!is_readable($FS_img))
	$FS_img = DIR_FS_CATALOG . $FS_img;
	// Get the image's information
	if ($image_size = @getimagesize($FS_img)) {

Feedback/advice on my changes would be very welcome.

cheers.


One reservation: My test environment currently has '/' as catalog ( define('DIR_WS_HTTP_CATALOG', '/') )
so this may need some minor tuning to work for other locations, however I *think* it should work as-is. Please let me know either way?

possible further improvements: As @spooks has said a db connection per thumbnail may be a bit of a problem... in that case just pull the config out of the db and into the php. (but the store admin would no longer be able to change thumbnail settings from the admin interface.)

+ modification:

• if thumbnails folder is specified, then a directory structure will be automatically created inside it to reflect the source image. (ie img=images/foo/bar/image.jpg .. thumbnails/images/foo/bar/image.jpg_thumb123x456.jpg...). This effect did not quite work, though the docs of the addon said it would...

@ce7
What it should do is to reduce the size of the small thumbnail images on your site. The easiest way to see if it is working is to open your homepage and right click an image in the products new area. You should be able to see the file size there. Now open the same product in your browser and right click the main image and look at the filesize. The thumbnail image should be smaller than the large image size.

There is a better image contribution if you are using 2.3. Search the adsdons for kiss image or something similar.
