To do / wish list

These are the features I’m looking at. I might do them all, but I also might drop some.

  • Add title attribute (same value as the alt attribute).
  • Add style attribute, which allows you to set the border, position the image etc.
  • Add class attribute, which allows you to set class name.
  • Set the default size for the thumbnails in articles
  • Save the edited images to a temp folder
  • Add “Insert thumbnail in Index.php page and full image in Single.php”

Upgrading

If you are upgrading, delete the old version and continue with the installation instructions below (you might have to flush the browser cache (= ctrl+F5 or ctrl+r).

Installation

Installation is simple, just follow the instructions below.

Step 1

Extract the archive and save into your WordPress plugins directory. After you’ve done this you should have a diretory structure like this:

Step 2

Activate the plugin
Step 3

Configure ImageManager on the Options >>> ImageManager page. ImageManager will not be enabled until you have configured it.

Step 4

You are done, open the editor, click on the ImageManager icon and test it. If you can not upload images and / or the editor doesn’t create thumbnails, you must check file permissions. The web server must have write access to the image folder.

If you are LOST i.e. can’t find your base image directory, download LOST.zip (228 bytes, 1,339 downloads), extract LOST.php and put it in your base image directory. Access it from your brower i.e.: http://domain.com/wp-content/uploads/LOST.php (remember to remove the file when you are done. )

Localization

You can translate the plugin by copying the lang/ImageManager.pot to lang/LOCALE.po (LOCALE being your locale i.e. fr for French). Edit the LOCALE.po file using poEdit or an other editor. If you are using poEdit, create a locale/ImageManager-LOCAL.mo file. If you are using another editor, after you are done editing, run imagemanager-gettext.sh (in the lang directory) with your LOCALE as parameter, i.e.:

./imagemanager-gettext.sh fr

    Brian: If you are running on a shared host, your base directory might be something else than the directory path you ftp to i.e.: you ftp to /var/www/html/images, but your base path is /home/virtual/siteX/fst/var/www/html/images/

    Create a phpinfo.php file and save it in your image directory:
    <?php
    phpinfo(INFO_VARIABLES);
    ?>

    Access the phpinfo.php using your web brower (disable .htaccess protection for the directory if you have implemented it), and look for the _SERVER["PATH_TRANSLATED"] variable, it should give you the path to your image directory (remember to remove phpinfo.php from the path).

    Don’t forget to remove the phpinfo.php file after you’ve found the path.

    I get errors in the post-page and the link on the imagemanager icon only states “javascript;;”, any ideas?

  29. Ben Margolin wrote:

    I just upgraded to 2.11 and thumbs no longer got created. Seems the problem is due to the code setting the ‘driver’ name to “GD” or “IM” etc., but the code itself now has lowercase filenames everywhere, so “GD.php” can’t be included for example. This might not break on OSX servers that don’t care much about letter case (or on Windows), but on Linux with EXT3, it cares.

    My “quick fix” that works so far was to change line 130 in classes/transform.php to read:

    include_once strtolower(”$driver.php”);

    i.e., adding the strtolower call. Fixed it for me, but that may not be the only problem. Seems to be the only include like that though, in the code, at least that a quick grep exposed.

    Thanks for v2.12… I do like the “hide wordpress upload” feature. But even cooler, what I really want (!) is to *replace* the WP upload widget with the ImageManager one, directly in the post page. Ideally it wouldn’t load the thumbs on every page view (I guess), as that would be a bit heavy, but at least on Firefox on the Mac, it takes FOREVER (sometimes 5-10 seconds) to open a new browser window; having it embedded in the current page would be awesome. I’m thinking it wouldn’t even be that difficult (ha!), but I’ve never tried to extend WP, so what do I know (not a lot). Just something to think about, if others agree, maybe this would be something doable/advisable…

    PS, I can confirm what ch has just reported. I see both of those bugs myself, so it’s a problem wider than just one person…

    I do however really appreciate the option to turn off the image uploader! Thanks for taking my suggestion. It’ll save no end of frustration on the blogs I manage.

    I found just one thing that I’m wondering about. I’ve used the plugin IImage Browser with WordPress 1.5 for some time now. One of the things it can do which I don’t think ImageManager can do is provide some options when adding a picture to a post.

    For example, you can add a thumbnail that links to the big picture. You can add just a thumbnail. You can also add a text link that links to either the thumbnail or the picture.

    It seems that ImageManager only links to the picture you’ve uploaded (or edited)? It would be nice on the main screen of ImageManager, after you’ve selected a picture to add to a post, if you had an interface for allowing this functionality when adding images to posts.

    Maybe this is too difficult or time consuming… What are your thoughts on this?

    And thanks again for the plugin!

  41. PS wrote:

    Ocellated, the bugs are fixed in the latest release (2.13).

    I like the idea; having an option on how to link the image. I’ll look into it and see if it can be done without a larger rewrite.

    TOBSN,

    How do you install the imagemagick on your own site. Because my host doesn’t has the imagemagick install. Can you share with us your method of installation. Anybody can help if you know.
    Thanks

    Hi :) First of all: the plugin is exactly what i have been looking for !
    Unfortunately i cant use it verymuch since i have exactly the same problem as MKJones. :(
    For some reasons i just cant preview some pictures and i cant make thumbnails for them, while other pictures work without problem.

    It seems to me that bigger pictures make problems. Here is an example:

    Any ideas maybe?

    I have an issue with the plugin where everything works great, except that the image editor creates multiple duplicate temp files after working on an image. When I FTP to the site I can’t see or delete them, but they show up in the Lazy Gallery plugin. This is wordpress 2.0.1, and the latest version of this plugin. Is there any way that I can control what happens with these temp files besides the prefix they get? Or perhaps have them go into a separate folder?

  68. PS wrote:

    Jacob, on a UNIX system I guess you know that files prefixed with a dot is “hidden”, that’s why the temp files and thumbnail folder has a dot as their default prefix. I belive that Lazy Gallery should obey this and ignore these files.

    Wishlist for ImageManager

    #1 set a path for a temp folder (for thumbs and images made from editing originals)
    #2 intergration with Lightbox JS, allows you to use lightbox js when you click on images in post
    #3 ability to show small version of image in excerpt, and larger version in the full post
    #4 tighter intergration with the image editor thingy

    if I find a momment to have a bash at enabling these features

    TOBSN,
    Can you please be more elaborate on how to install in my own domain. I can use a ftp to upload the file. Sorry I am newbie to linux :). Thanks for your help

    I see that you can set the directory for the thumbs. It would still be great to be able to save the edited images to a temp folder. I was thinking something along the lines of taking the full path of the image and changin the slashes ‘/’ to userscores ‘_’ and using that as the images filename and saving that in the temp folder. If another option was added to allow certain folders to be excempt from thumbnail creation then ImageManage could be used to browse any image database once configured with the path.

    Temp, Gallery and otherwise browserable folders folders could be configured in the option panel

    This would be really neat and supremely user friendly & expansive enharncement for an already robust & feature rich plugin.

    Hi, I have just discovered an issue with ImageManager. After uploading an image the folders and files disappear (you can’t browser them select) pressing refresh does not resolve the issue. To add to the confusion it does’nt always happen but it happens enough to make it an issue.

    This is on a WAMP server. Any ideas??

  73. Sam S wrote:

    Update: After it happens you can go to the options page (values have not changed) and save them. It works again until it encounters whatever makes it Bork then it borks until options are saved again.

    I am experienced similar as with Sam. When I upload an images to the isp server I see the full image but sometime I don’t see it at all. Also the thumbnail creation sometimes is create the thumbnail and other time doesn’t at all. I really don’t know what happen

    Hey there,

    Love the plugin, thanks. However I am trying to use the EditorMonkey TinyMCE implimentation and I cant figure out how to integrate the Image manager. Any suggestions?

    Thanks

    BraveCreatures, I haven’t looked at the EditorMonkey TinyMCE implementation. I use the Buttonsnap library to add the ImageManager button to the WordPress TinyMCE editor.

    I have had a quick look at Button Snap but cant find install instructuctions. I am assuming that you mean installing this in with the EditorMonkey implimentation might do the trick.

    I ran into this problem I don’t know what is going wrong here but I can upload the image via ImageManager. I can see and select the images from the ImageManger just uploaded. But when I try to browse the thumbnail folder see this message “No Images Found” but when FTP into my server I can see the thumbnails created. So I assumed there might be a bug. I am using WP2.01.
    Thanks

    Mines Win2K, I have a couple of different wordpress blogs that I am working on concurrently. I have used ImageManager in various installs in some cases it works OK although I get the senario described above on occassion. I am making my own plugin for wordpress and borrowing some of the technics used in ImageManager. I have (re)double checked that the settings and found nothing odd in any cases (that I can see)

    Sam S, I suspect the code that’s converting the path. I’ll have a look at it as soon as possible.

    Thanks for looking into that.

    Rocky2889, You should consider upgrading your server / moving to a host that can give you a newer OS, MySQL and Apache. I suspect that your PHP doesn’t have GD 2.x. You can check this by creating a PHP file with this content:

    < phpinfo(); >

    Also, download a copy of the created thumbnail and check if it really is an image.
