With this can you tell it which path to pull: for example

http://www.domain.com/path1/path2/myphoto.jgp

I am needing to pull only the first path1

thanks

Not yet, though I may look into this along with some minor bug fixes for a later version. Watch this space.

I’m trying to use this plugin with phpThumb.  phpThumb is a thumbnail generator that creates thumbnail images via a URL. 

Basically I allow a user to upload an image.

This is the code i’m using now to try and display that image - obviously src is wrong

How would i use extract URL to display the path before the {custom_tag} parameter?

In other words, can extract URL spit out something like:

Sorry Sherills, not quite sure I follow?

{custom_tag} contains your url?

If so, try:

I’m sorry, I wasn’t very clear.

I am currently using the “extract_url” plugin in conjunction with phpThumb (a thumbnail generator), but the basic “extract_url” (not extract_url_plus) seems very limited in what it can do.

Here is exactly what my code currently looks like:

{art_upload} is simply a custom field in which a user can submit his/her artwork - so it’s an image file.

With this current set up, when I view the source of the image that is created, the path looks like this:

Instead what I want it to display is:

So that the src is local instead of the full path.  Is this possible with extract_url_plus and if so, what would that look like?

Thanks so much for helping with this.

Ah right - in that case my example above should be all that you require I believe

I tried using the following and it didn’t work, I get a “No URL Found” message.

Here’s my exact code:

I know that’s not right - but how would it look?

Sherills,

Are you using the latest version?

I’m using version 1.3.1

Is 1.3.1 the latest version?  If not where can i get the latest?

Also, was there anything wrong with my code?

Hi, I just installed this extension because I’m interested in using only the file name (and it’s extension) that is associated with a custom field I’ve created for uploading images.

Currently my custom field tag returns the full path to the file; e.g http://www.my site.com/images/uploads/16.jpg.

I would rather not use the full path to the image. I was hoping that I could use this plugin to grab only the filename and file extension and append the last segment of a relative path to make the path dynamic; e.g.

The trouble I’m experiencing is that when I place these tags within my EE weblog tag the plugin returns % filename.% extension (% filesize) rather then the actual data.

Would it be possible to tell me if I’m formatting this correctly.

When I test the plugin on a URL directly (not a variable) it works as I expect it to. When I drop in a custom field variable it does not.

I’m using the following version Extract URL Plus (v.1.3.1).

uou must remove the space between the % and the name of variable. (the forums here don’t like ” &#xth;is “)

Thank you very much, that was it.

Hi,
I’m having the same problem as sherrills (above) and am also using this in conjunction with phpThumb. I’m sot sure I saw a solution for the problem.

The old extract url works fine with phpThumb, it just gives you the full url to the image. But for better performance, I’d like to use relative paths instead of absolute.

Here is my code:

The custome field {myimage) contains a url.

What I want is for extract url to strip the image url from “http://www.mysite.com/uploads/images/myimage.jpg” to “/uploads/images/myimge.jpg”

Am I using this correctly?

butcher.

How am I to know the exact url? (extract_url_plus url=”.....”)These are image people have uploaded.

Just put url=”{your_custom_field}”

Here’s my code:

This says No url Found.
