Nice script, how to change show only a limit of thumbnails below medium pictures. If you have an album with 50 pictures all thumbnails are listed below the medium picture or was that the idea with this nice script?
I agree, I think the script would be more useful if it only showed about five or six small thumbnails (adjacent to the current picture based on sort order) below the large picture. Having the entire album there just seems overkill.
Thanks a lot for your info and I agree with you all that we should be able to set how many thumbnails we want to display. I have updated the script and it now allows us to set how many thumbnails we want to display.

I need some help with the plugin. When I enter a galleri and click on a thumbernail. I get the names of all thumbernails at the top of the page, the sites works but it looks ugly. I can't see that other that uses this plugin has the same problem...
As mentioned in another post, there was a debug echo left in the code. If you run a "Find..." on the code for "echo", you should find it, and can comment out the line.
For all of you who happened trying to access http://sourcematic.com and found it unavailable, I would like to let you know that http://sourcematic.com is now back online. Sorry for being down for about a week due to problem with the hosting provider.
this message is for niceday. I am using you plugin in my site and I would like to know is there is any way to make the navigation thumbnails static intead changing positions all the time. And another question: the page is loaded every time you click a picture is that correct or i am doing something wrong.
you can see the test page at http://www.sajatatalent.com/gallerias/index.php?level=picture&id=26
Hi Vaska, glad to know that you use my plugin. I will answer your second question first. Yes, the page is loaded everytime you click a thumbnail. If you don't want a click on a thumbnail load a page then you have to use either javascript or ajax.
Now your first question. By making the thumbnail static, do you want to display all thumbnails? If so, yes you can do that. Actually that's the first version of the thumbnail navigation. Then based on input given on this thread, I modified the script so that it only shows a number of thumbnails depending on which picture is currently showing. Hope this answer your question. If you want all thumbnails to be displayed then contact me.
Hi Niceday, yourwelcome. Thanks for your answers. Basically i will not show more than 20-25 pics per album. My site is for models and i am the person who uploads the pics, so i have total control over that, what i would like to do is keep the order of the navigation thumbnails.
For the record, AJAX is Javascript -- "Asynchronous Javascript and XML". It's just using Javascript to send a query, retrieve an XML document, and insert it into the DOM.
Man, we should do this with Plogger, but I don't know enough Javascript. ;)
do not worry for the late response, I guess people have things to do besides help others in this forum. By the way, the sript works great, thank you very much!
what I have noticed is that the pictures in the thumbnails don't appear in the order they suppose to, for example: the fisrt thumb shown is the number 4 instead the number 1. You can see it here:
Hi niceday, I really appreciate your help, but unfortunately the script still shows the wrong order. I did what you said. I downloaded the script from here http://sourcematic.com/library/plog-plugger_allthumbs.zip
vaska, there was one thing that I did not take into account which is sort setting of your gallery. I have revised the script to accomodate the sorting you set for your gallery. Please download again the file and give it a try.
It's me once again. The script has another little problem: some of the thumbnails are moved from the center of the field where the picture should be shown, adding an ugly black border on the side of the picture, you can see this here http://www.sajatatalent.com/photographers/index.php?level=picture&id=22 Another thing, can the table where the thumbs are has a fix size? It is a little bit anoying the movement of the pics when you jump from pic to pic. I hope you understand my english.
Vaska, the link you posted result in error: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'ORDER BY `date_submitted` DESC' at line 1
SELECT id FROM `plogger_pictures` WHERE parent_album = ORDER BY `date_submitted` DESC
Sorry about that, the new link is http://www.sajatatalent.com/photographers/index.php?level=picture&id=152 I already solved the problem of the table, but the pics still having the black side.
Hi Niceday The link http://sourcematic.com/index.php?itemid=3 does not seem to be working and I would really like this feature on my plogger www.marinavillagearklow.com/photos This is a new site for me and I just want to be able to uise thumbnail nav.
Can you send me the step by step for this ken_otoole@dell.com
Sorry for taking so long to reply. I was just back from holiday. Thumbnail navigation script can be downloaded at http://www.sourcematic.com/library/plog-plugger.zip (original version where you can specify how many thumbnails you want to display) and http://www.sourcematic.com/library/plog-plugger_allthumbs.zip (which shows all thumbnails).
For Vaska, I will look into the problem you encountered.
niceday - Thanks so much for sharing this with all of us! Great work!
I have it installed and it's working great but I am having one little trouble figuring out exactly how to resize the thumbnails for the thumbnail navigation. The thumbnail images are quiet small despite the size i have them set to in the admin section. I'd love if they were 80x80...I see where the size is handled in the plogger file but I'm just not sure where to make changes due to my lack of knowledge, ahem. :)
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Here's the test page I have it installed on currently - - http://www.lilocstudio.com/clients/cpascual/plogger/index.php?level=picture&id=2
Thumbnail navigation sizes are controlled when you implement Plugger itself, and are not directly controllable by the Plogger admin interface. Look at the lines where you create the Plugger object and pass it variables, then give it the value (in pixels) you would like to have the thumbnails. Don't forget to empty /thumbs/ so they get regenerated.
Alllriiight....I've come back to beg for more assistance with resizing the thumbnails. ddejong - thank you for pointing me in the general direction but i'm stumped! :( Any additional information/examples/line numbers...anything would help. I've tried but nothing I do seem to impact the size of the thumbnails. Please, please? Thank you! -K
ddejong, I'm still struggling (actually, I gave up awhile ago) but just dropped you an email. If you have the time to take a look that would be awesome. If not, I understand completely. Thanks, Karissa
Not sure if you have solved the black bar issue on your thumbnails. I had the same issue, it seems to be just a typo in the plog-pluger.php file. Look for a line showing: $cropW = 0; and change it to: $cropX = 0; In my file it's on line 67.
The issue will only happen when it processes a batch of files and as cropX wasn't being reset to zero it was using the value from the previous thumbnail.
Perhaps niceday, great script by the way, can confirm this and amend it in the original source.
I don't get it -- I've got Thumbnail Navigation enabled in my beta3 site but I don't see any change in the way my site is rendered. All the links in this thread are dead. Can anyone shed some light on this for me?
I wrote the thumbnail nav in Beta 3, so if there's something wrong I'd like to know. Please post a URL to your installation here or email me off the forum.
Well, if thumbnail nav is enabled, it should be displaying small thumbnails on the picture page, so that you can jump from one picture to another.
e.g. http://www.kdpublish.com/applications/ploggerdev_tags/?level=picture&id=217
There should be some mini-thumbnails hiding about to navigate.
Please let me know if this is now disabled or just genuinely broken.
EDIT: Winning the Idiot of the Week award, I didn't actually add the call to thumbnail navigation to any of the themes ... so even though it works, it doesn't appear. To add thumbnail navigation to your theme, add this line whereever you'd like in picture.php: print plogger_get_thumbnail_nav();
I've put a lightbox clone in place so my site never displays individual image pages. But if I get tired of the lightbox, and go back to using picture.php, I will be sure to make sure your nav routine gets activated.
Thanks for your help and your work on this great application.
