Why is that? Is your intention that the CSS for #thread also applies to #thread1? (it doesn't since they are both distinctly named ids.)</p> <p>If you want the max width of the images in both #thread1 and #thread to be 600px, you would have to edit the CSS for both those ids.</p> <p>You should probably also validate your CSS here: <a href="http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/" rel="nofollow">http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/</a></p> <p><strong>Don't give up on it</strong>, I suspect it's a simple thing you're overlooking that makes it not work. Maybe it's as simple as a cached stylesheet so that after you make a change, it still doesn't appear to limit the width of the image, even thought it would if the new stylesheet was actually used. I find Firefox does that sometimes even after a CTRL-SHIFT-R. View the stylesheet being used to see if it actually has the changes you made in it. If you load the stylesheet URL directly and the changes are not there, CTRL-SHIFT-R that page and usually it loads the stylesheet again, then go back to your webpage and the stylesheet with your changes should be in use.</p> <p>Off topic: I wish there were a place one could go to check your site for all the CSS classes, ids and just plain markup you use in the HTML and PHP (web pages), then show you the <strong>extra</strong> CSS in your stylesheet that is not used in the code at all. That way you could clean the cruft out of your stylesheet and it also might point out things that are not working the way you thought they were. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/allow-image-plugin-question#post-13505 Thu, 31 Jan 2008 11:07:55 +0000 edwinfoo 13505@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>&gt;If you add CSS for #thread1 or remove the 1 from the end of the<br /> &gt;&lt;ol id="#thread" in your theme, it works fine (I just tried it.)</p> <p>It didn't for me.

That's plugin territory and would require you allowing uploads and storing the files. There have been a few requests lately for allowing attachments but I don't think anyone has taken up the task. The attachments plugin would allow you to do images as well, I think, or at least the same approach could be used. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/allow-image-plugin-question#post-13487 Wed, 30 Jan 2008 15:16:08 +0000 chrishajer 13487@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>edwinfoo: it looks like there's a problem with the CSS on your site. The #thread li <a href="http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/allow-image-plugin-question?replies=14#post-7380">referenced above by fel64</a> won't work for you because it looks like you have renamed it to #thread1 (maybe just a typo in your theme.) So, the CSS for #thread won't apply to #thread1. If you add CSS for #thread1 or remove the 1 from the end of the &lt;ol id="#thread" in your theme, it works fine (I just tried it.)</p> <p>This <code>&lt;ol id=&quot;thread1&quot; start=&quot;1&quot;&gt;</code> needs to look more like <code>&lt;ol id=&quot;thread&quot; start=&quot;1&quot;&gt;</code>.</p> <p>If you need numbers there for each unique thread, you're going to have to do it differently, not appending a thread number to the end of the id "thread": that changes the id from #thread to #thread-(whatever number). </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/allow-image-plugin-question#post-13485 Wed, 30 Jan 2008 14:27:02 +0000 edwinfoo 13485@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Sorry.

If I can't rebuild the engine on my car, I pay someone to do it. I don't think anyone was suggesting you spend more money: upgrading to the latest release is good advice when the software is in BETA. It makes troubleshooting things easier to know you have the latest release. In this case though, I don't think upgrading will have any effect on this problem. It can be solved with CSS, not new functions or bug fixes from the latest bbPress. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/allow-image-plugin-question#post-13482 Wed, 30 Jan 2008 13:20:57 +0000 edwinfoo 13482@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p><a href="http://www.glamrock.com/blog/forum/index.php" rel="nofollow">http://www.glamrock.com/blog/forum/index.php</a></p> <p>fel64, I can't see a good reason why I should spend money to upgrade because it's not something that I can do.

Plus I'm not sure if I'll be going to a different software solution which supports social networking better.</p> <p>With regards to pics&lt;600px breaking the site, I've tried these additions in the style.css file like you said :</p> <p><em>#thread li {<br /> min-height: 200px; /* &lt;-- add this line */<br /> padding: 1.5em 1.0em;<br /> line-height: 1.5em;<br /> }<br /> <strong>overflow: auto;</strong></p> <p>#thread li ol, #thread li ul { margin-left: 40px; }</p> <p>#thread li ol li, #thread li ul li { padding: 0; }<br /> </em><br /> and I've tried :</p> <p><em>#thread li {<br /> min-height: 200px; /* &lt;-- add this line */<br /> padding: 1.5em 1.0em;<br /> line-height: 1.5em;<br /> }</p> <p><strong>#thread li img {<br /> max-width: 600px;</strong></p> <p>#thread li ol, #thread li ul { margin-left: 40px; }</p> <p>#thread li ol li, #thread li ul li { padding: 0; }<br /> </em></p> <p>Please forgive my poor development skills.

Quite complicated and very server-intensive.</p> <p>The superior solution, in my opinion, is to open your theme's style.css, look for the <code>#thread li</code> entry and add to it:</p> <p><code>overflow: auto;</code></p> <p>That will then add scrollbars to each post if the width of an image exceeds its specified dimensions (for example, if you explicitly set the width of it (or one of its parent elements) (probably done in your theme already) but not the height, the image would stretch the post to the desired height but add scrollbars to the width).</p> <p>Alternatively you could add this to the end of your style.css file:<br /> <pre><code>#thread li img { max-width: 600px; }</code></pre> <p>Or whatever width you want. This does not work so well; the image will load at full resolution, breaking the layout, and then be resized. It is also only supported by newer browsers; IE 6 will not recognise it. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/allow-image-plugin-question#post-7379 Sat, 12 May 2007 10:49:46 +0000 metalvalley 7379@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Is it possible to add an maxwidth function to the plugin. If yes, what and where? </p>
