Does this not work with Allow Images or bbCode? All [img] links become broken when using this plugin.

From my side this plugin works with Allow Images, and it hadn't be tested yet with bbCode.

In order for this to work, a couple changes need to be made to the plugin's .php file.

Find the following two lines:
$lightbox_style = (bb_get_option('uri')."my-plugins/bb-lightbox2/Themes/".$lightbox_2_theme."/"); $lightbox_path = bb_get_option('uri')."my-plugins/bb-lightbox2/bb-lightbox2/";

Change the "my-plugins" directory to match your system (probably bb-plugins).

You now need to create a directory off your system root called "/tumbs". Make sure it is writeable.

If your thumbnails are not showing up, find this line of code:

$tumbs_url = $_GET[SERVER_URI].'/tumbs/';

And replace it with a hard link to the location of your "tumbs" directory.

ie:

$tumbs_url = 'http://www.mysite.com/tumbs/';

That should do it! Works well with AllowImages.

When I use this code:

[img]http://img142.imageshack.us/img142/7050/yugoad2la5.jpg[/img]

It changes it to this:

$tumbs_url = $_GET[SERVER_URI].'/tumbs/';

---------------------

This line of code isn't in the plugin I just downloaded. However, this is:
```
if(!$tumbs_path) {
   $tumbs_path = BBPATH.'tumbs/';
 }
  if(!$tumbs_url) {
   $tumbs_url = bb_get_option('uri').'tumbs/';
```

Citizenkeith: It seems the plugin has been updated, so the second bit of code I referenced no longer exists.

Is the plug-in working for you now? I haven't updated to this new version, but the method for finding the URL for your BBPress install is better now (so adding a hard link to your /tumbs dir shouldn't be necessary).

Anyway, try using HTML rather than BBcode. Looks like it's truncating the BBcode. Probably not parsing the brackets correctly.

Also A1ex -- nice work. Would be great to add something to the BBPress admin interface so you can specify the thumbnail size without having to edit the .php file.

Thanks for your interest to the plugin. I will necessarily add support bbCode.

...URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration...

You must configure allow_url_fopen=on / allow_url_include=on in your php.ini to make that work.

Hi. I like the plugin a lot. But I have another problem. I am running a board where the users post a lot of images - and a lot of them is wallpaper-size (800-1200px wide). This causes the board to look terrible.

At first I thought that Lightbox was perfect to prevent this. I have changed the thumb-width to 500 in bb-lightbox2.php

$tumb_width = 100;
$tumb_height = 100;

This makes huge images fit into the board - so far so good.

Now my problem is the images that is below 500px wide. Cause now they are being scaled up.
I am using the plugin BB-smilies and 500px pixelated smilies looks pretty lame.

Is there some way to only resize images that is wider than 500 px?

The sense of your problem is not completely clearly for me. Can you give me the link to your forums or explain it more particularly.

Thanks Alex... right now I have bbpress populated with an old db from phpbb3...

Without lightbox2 activated:

with acativated:

FWIW, when activated, instead of lightbox running, the full size jpg loads instead of the javascript.

Thanks for the troubleshooting help!
