Hi
I’m having an issue with phpthumb
My code is -
/resources/phpthumb/phpThumb.php?src={works_image}&w=100which gives an error but if I hard code the URL of the image, it works.
/resources/phpthumb/phpThumb.php?src=/images/works/messages.jpg&w=100Rough test page is at http://vickycrowe.webfactional.com/index.php/gallery/works
Any help appreciated
Thanks
Ken

You probably need to include the surrounding channel entries or plugin code that outputs the works_image variable in order to troubleshoot. The test page shows that the variable isn’t being parsed and still shows up in the page source as {works_image}. Can you provide more code?

Thanks - I have shown below the code, including an alternative use of imgsizer plugin. I really need to use phpthumb though as imgsizer doesn’t do everything I need. Page is at
http://vickycrowe.webfactional.com/index.php/gallery/works
and code is -
{preload_replace:my_channel="works"}
{preload_replace:my_template_group="gallery"}
{preload_replace:my_single_entry_template="works"}

Could it be as simple as you have “works_image” in your phpthumb src link as opposed to “work_image”?
#5 / Jun 17, 2013 3:40pm
Wow - I thought that was sure to be it, but no. Updated page at http://vickycrowe.webfactional.com/index.php/gallery/works shows it’s still not working
Thanks for help so far

Well the {work_image} variable is now being parsed correctly though. You now get:
phpthumb code
/resources/phpthumb/phpThumb.php?src=http://vickycrowe.webfactional.com/images/works/winter_at_kittleybrig.jpg&w=200for example as output. What you’re looking for is a relative url instead of a complete url. So you now have:
/resources/phpthumb/phpThumb.php?src=http://vickycrowe.webfactional.com/images/works/winter_at_kittleybrig.jpg&w=200which doesn’t work, and you really want:
/resources/phpthumb/phpThumb.php?src=/images/works/winter_at_kittleybrig.jpg&w=200which does work.
So you could try changing the code to:
/resources/phpthumb/phpThumb.php?src=/images/works/{work_image}{file_name}{/work_image}&w=200
