General Support: How can i WATERMARK

I put this code that derek did but its not working where should i put it exactly where in between in the script in plog-function or where :s.. its not precise enough :s.. cuz it doesnt show up even though ive put

if ($thumb_config['filename_prefix'] != '') { // add only for large thumbs
$phpThumb->fltr = array("wmi|images/m-icon.png|BR|50|5");
}

but yet it wont appear on the photos :s..

ddejong it looks like this

// set data
$phpThumb->setSourceFileName($source_file_name);
$phpThumb->w = $thumb_config['size'];
$phpThumb->q = $config['compression'];
if ($thumb_config['filename_prefix'] != '') { // add only for large thumbs
$phpThumb->fltr = array("wmi|gallery/images/m-icon.png|BR|50|5");
}

and my web is

http://www.dnsmerit.com/~merithep/

and the gallery is on merithep/gallery

and the images is on merithep/gallery/images

so the code should be right i tested both gallery/imges/m-icon.png

and also just images/m-icon.png but no progress :S

Try replacing this:

if ($thumb_config['filename_prefix'] != '') { // add only for large thumbs
$phpThumb->fltr = array("wmi|images/m-icon.png|BR|50|5");
}

With this:
$phpThumb->fltr = array("wmi|images/m-icon.png");

It will add the watermarks to everything; but start by making sure we know the watermark is in the right directory (the path should be relative to Plogger), and use the default values for corner, opacity and margin. Get this working first, then start adding the conditional statement and extra parameters to get it working how you want.

If it still doesn't work, you can post again or email me and I'll try to help off-board.

Make absolutely certain the watermark is in that folder remotely; if you're using something like Dreamweaver or NVu, you can confuse yourself with local and remote views. Then put it right in the main Plogger directory, with gallery.php. Then just use "m-icon.png" as the watermark path.

Additionally, are you sure your server has GD2? It's very likely, but none of the filters in phpThumb work with GD1.

Poor Plebbi. I'm really sorry, but this just occurred to me.

When you create a thumbnail, Plogger stores a copy in /thumbs, so that every time you browse a gallery, it can use the thumbs from last time. There are some simple checks, that the size is still the right size and whatnot; if they're the same, it uses the cached thumbnail. I forgot to mention that when you change the watermarking, you have to delete all the thumbnails to force Plogger to recreate them. Then it will use the watermark in phpThumb when creating the new thumbnail. That's why it wasn't working -- phpThumb wasn't ever generating thumbs because they already existed.

I think that should solve the problem. Just clean out /thumb.
