Nice plugin. Tx! Works fine in WP 1.5.1.

Initially, I was getting 404 errors until I realized that the thumbnail was chmod’d incorrectly.

The plugin generates an unreadable (chmod) thumbnail or did I miss something? The folder was set correctly.

First, let me say thanks for all the work you’ve put into this. It’s exactly what I’ve been looking for!

Now… the bad news. I can’t get it to work! When I press the ‘insert’ button, I get an error message stating that the image and its corresponding thumbnail do not exist, though I know full well that they do.

Could this be related to the chmod issue discussed above?

This is EXACTLY what I was looking for about two years ago! I want it… will it work on WordPress 1.5.X? Please let me know!

Thank you for this plugin! Like Len, it is exactly what I’ve been looking for. Also like Len, I can’t get it to work. I cannot generate thumbnails. I get this error message: “I couldn’t save the resized image at /x/x/x/x/x/picture.jpg for some reason. The most likely cause is that you don’t have write permission set on the directory”. When I put in the path to a thumbnail sized image I have already created, it shows up, but clicking the thumbnail generates a new window that displays a 404 error.

Hope you can help! This is exactly what I have been wanting, if I can get it to work!

P.S. The X’s in the path above are just for privacy.

Great Plug-In. Any plans to extend support to Pages as well as Blogs?

Every time I try to insert a picture I get the message:

[Simple Popup Images unable to find image size for imagename at http://mysite.comhttp://mysite.com/uploads/2006/08/mypicture.jpg ]

What is wrong?

RE: above comment, putting in the full web address solved the problem ( http://www.site.com/wp-content/blah blah

Hi!

I´ve got the plugin working, i can generate the thumbnail but… when after i generate the preview, i click on insert and nothing happens! I try to click over the preview thumbnail and i get the 404 error, but i´m sure the image is correctly on server!

I’m getting the same error as Mic. All the permissions are set correctly for each folder. The insert button just does nothing. The generated thumbnail is working and so is the original image, it simply doesn’t insert it into the post.

I have installed this, but I use Editormonkey for my site editor.. the popup button does not show up. Is there a way to get the popup button to show up using editormonkey plugin?

Hello,

I’m using the 0.3 version with the RTE editor, all seems fine until i publish the post and try to click the images to see the pop-up, i get a 404 error.

Putting the full web-adress wouldn’t help, i’ve tried all that’s been suggested, i checked if both images are there and they are, but it seems like something’s messed with the hyperlink between the thumb & the pop-up.

Please help =(
A.H

I just did a WP 2.04 install adapted for small business site. I must admit that the RTE is a piece of junk. What were they thinking? I turned it off and never want to see it again as it trys to wrap around just about everything. The uploader is also junk.

Once the RTE is off, your Pop-up plugin works fine. Span it and it looks great! See it here:

http://www.advancedlabs.com.sg/vendors/clarinox-technologies/

Confirmed – 404 error and wrong string for thumb. Both image and thumb open correctly when directly checked.

Using just code without “Insert” does the same, i.e. does not work.

Hope to get some info on this! Thanks!

I get strage errors, while I view a page, where I have put an image:

———–PAGE————-

Warning: array_combine() [function.array-combine]: Both parameters should have at least 1 element in /home8/informatyka/2002/ID/m/malesins/public_html/wild-eye/wp-content/plugins/popup-images/popup-images.php on line 54

[Here goes the normal page part]

[Simple Popup Images unable to add image: missing parameters.]

———–PAGE————-

I have WP version: 2.0.4 (…I guess)
I use RTE and I have plaste the PopupImageCode on the end of the page.

The same happens if I try to put it into a post.

Can someone help?

This is a 3 part post. 1st and 2nd part. I am trying to add a couple of features to your UI. 1st I would like to add an upload feature and 2nd a browse. This way I can do everything from one place. Upload my pics to a desired directory. If it exists and if not make it. Browse to the directory and get the file path to image and thumbnail. Simple enough and wont need me understanding your code.

This is the 3rd part and the part I need help with. I noticed if I make a post and past in the preview code, and then later needed to re-edit that post, the image code would disappear. After some reading I found I could disable the WYSIWYG and I shouldn’t have a problem anymore. However now I do not have the link to Add a Popup Image.

Can you help me with the 3rd part and Ill see what I can do about the other 2? I will share what I come up with when Im done.

Thanks,
Jesse

I installed the plug-in and I’m having one problem. I’m getting a thumbnail of the image but when I click on the image to open up in a pop-up I get a 404 error.
The URL is correct but for some reason it’s not loading…

Hi, I’ve installed you plugin into word press, it’s what I’ve been looking for for a while now. Everything works fine up until I click on the final thumbnail. a page pops up, the correct size but with a 404 message, can someone please advise about this.
Thanks, simon

Thanks Stephen for you emails: it works now. I have changed the path to the popup.php in the options to read: http://www.simonsharville.co.uk/economycustard/wp-content/plugins/popup-images/popup.php

It may be because my blog sits in my main site, anyway you were a great help and it’s agreat plugin.

thanks simon

Hi,

I was wondering if it is possible to have a popup on a text, without thumbnail…

Thanks, great plugin, nice site

Bye from Francitaly (I leave in France and in Italy)

Excellent plug-in; exactly what I was looking for. Worked perfectly after I changed the path in the options panel.

One note: I changed “onMouseOver” and “onMouseOut” to all lower case in popup-images.php, so the page would be valid XHTML Strict.

Thanks again for an very well executed plug-in!

Hiya, awesome site, i love the idea of the pop up, but for the life of me i can’t get it to work, i’m trying to do it to the entry half way down my page.

In the preview i can get the thumbnail to generate, but when i click on that it just shows part of my main page, and has an error message.

I’ve read all the comments here, and have tried everything i can think of, any help would be great.

In regards to my question above. I went into popup-images.php and I added:

‘” border=”‘ . 0 .

At line 173.

It seems to work. No default border, border is gone!

Great plug-in. Everything works great, but I was wondering if there is a way to get the text to wrap around the image. Before I would add this code: align=”left” hspace=”10″ and that would do the trick. Now I add that code and no change at all. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks.

I’m getting a strange problem. I’m using WP 2.0.4 on a Safari browser.

The “pop-up” displays my home page instead of the image. I have tried various ways of delineating the image address without success. Help!

I’m getting a strange problem. I’m using WP 2.0.4 on a Safari browser.

I use to have the same problem.
1.I moved the popup.php in root dir and i delete the path to him from options.
2.I added by hand all image atributes (width and height – even for thumbails)

Have had version 0.4 installed with latest WordPress and everything had been working for a while now, no issues. Logged onto site today and all instances are showing the message “Simple Popup Images unable to find image size for imagename at http://www.mysite.com/blog/uploads/image11.jpg“. Checked upload folder by ftp, all good and I stress, this was working fine. I can still use the plugin and it shows the thumbnail when created but once published I get the above message. Anyone have any idea what is going on?

Thanks Bloggero,

That fixed the issue of the thumbnail not appearing and by following Simons example of useing the full path to popup.php I got rid of the 404 on the popup as well. Thanks guys.

Stephen,

I’m trying to create a thumbnail, and everything works fine until I try to “insert” and nothing happens. The image does not get inserted into the post. What am I doing wrong? Thanks.

Kathleen,

I suspect that if you edit at your post in HTML mode, do a “save” and then reopen it in the HTML mode again, the formatting wdid not survive.

As Stephen Says, go into the WP Dashboard > Users and un-tick the box for using the Rich Text Ediotr. It eats the code. Once you do that, you should see your thumbnails.

Having solved that issue, I’m looking forard to Stepehn’s advice on controlling the word wrap and padding for the image.

To Kathleen,
Add by hand all image sizes, put your popup.php in root dir, delete path to popup from options.
(This works for me.)

Great pluging – thanks alot! Actually my question is similar to Jamie’s 12th Sep comment. I used to put thumbnails on the right or left of the page with text wrapping using class=”alignright” or class=”alignleft”. Using the plugin it seems all my thumbnails will end up on the left, can i change this?

I have ran into a place where I a plugin that posts the contents via a SQL statment.

When this happend all I get on the page is a border to the table I built. When I view sorce I can see the “popim” tag, its like the contents is not being filtered.

How does the plugin popup-image filer, is it based on the content() function?

Is there a way I can place a filter around the SQL statment of the function interupting things to fix this?

Heres a link to the post where the table and popup images is working.
Working

Heres a link to where a plugin calls the contents and no popup images are displayed.
Not Working

Thanks for the Help,
Jesse

I am probably the last guy who comments this, but this is really cool and so its cool to be the last one

sorry bout that, here’s another attempt:

Okay people, I managed to sort out the alignment problem.

first, copy this line of CSS onto your theme’s CSS file and save it:

.alignleft {
float: left;
}

.alignright {
float: right;
}

.centerimage {
text-align: center;
margin-top: 0;
margin-bottom: 0;
padding: 0;
}

span.leftimage {
float: left; margin: 7px; margin-left: 0;
border: 1px solid #000;
}

span.rightimage {
float: right; margin: 7px; margin-right: 0;
}

then whenever the WP post generated this code in your posting form (after adding the popup pix process) – you’d see it there:

[code][/code]

Add: [code] the code above [/code]

So it’ll be like this: [code][/code]

once you’ve done that, click the “save & continue editing” button, let it do the work, once done, scroll down and look at “post preview”.

I did that and the text started to align around the image which is on the left.

you should then tweak the CSS as you want it, add borders or waht not.

Hope this helps.

BTW; I wonder why no one ever answered the questions posted. This plug-in is very old too, through out the years, there surely be someone who has resolved it. It’s baffling, to me at least.

Hi I’m david
good work, but I have a question for you. I have a image title with a ” ‘ ” inside..like “Bob’s father”

so javascript recognize it as stop field text — title=’ Bob’s father’–
so the title text stops at Bob

I use the code — Bob\’s father — to resolve it. And it works fine.
but when i go to hover pop up image, it appears as “Bob\’s father “,
it doesn’t recognize javascript anymore, or not?

any suggestion to resolve that?
thanks
bye

sorry I didnt resolve it, I only hide all title “alt” on popup images..

I am a simple girl…I got this plugin working in our blog and it is great. Now I want to add a caption to the thumbnail image in the blog. I know the mouseover shows the title, but I have some really simple people using our site, and they would like to see a caption. Can anyone step me through adding this to my blog? THANKS!!!!

Good afternoon,

I am trying to get the plugin set up on the most current entry entitled “Test” at http://divamaggie.com . When I click the thumbnail, I get a 404 error. Was hoping you might be able to help.

Stephen – yes, I’d like a caption below the thumbnaol picture when it is in the blog. I am sure I am just overlooking how to do this, but if you can tell me without much trouble to yourself, I’d love it!

I was wondering if someone could help me add scrollbars to my popup image. Some of my images are larger then the screen and some of the picture is not accessible to view. Thanks, Jesse.

Stephen,

thanks for the help… I sent an email also…

This is what I enter:

IMage Title: Some title
URL to image: http://www.gabtone.com/gablog/1.jpg
URL to thumbnail: (none – wasn’t sure what URL to enter here)
Thumbnail width: 250

When I hit “Generate thumbnail” I get:
“I couldn’t find the image file at //www.gabtone.com/gablog/1.jpg to make a thumbnail from it”

…whichs is false since if you paste that URL you will find that it is a valid path to an image…

Thanks!

Hello! your plugin is very useful for me.

Just 1 question: How can I set the options so that “The resulting popup window can, if you like, vanish the moment the user clicks away from it”. Or, can it be setup that if the visitor click the popup a second time, it then dispears?

Regards,
Bernard

I was wondering if there is a way to add the scroll bars to the popup window. This would help eliminate not being able to view the whole image on a screen whos resolution is less then the popup.

Thanks,
Jesse

hello,

will you make update for your plugin for wp 2.1?

yes, thats the problem.
my work around is: to write page as you would write a post, than just copy everything and paste it to new post window.
anyway, if you’ll fix it – it would be great.
thanks a lot.

There is another problem with it, if you need to update a post that already has a popup image it will remove half the code for that image and you will need to remove the rest and re-enter it all again.

I have a feeling this is because the edit page like the write new post page opens in Visual mode and not Code mode, that’s in Firefox. Safari only gives you one mode choice. but I’m not sure about that.

Still a great plugin though,

simon

oops…

code is stripped from the comments…

not sure how to defeat that… trying:

popim imageURL=’http://www.perpetualocean.com/tetherdcow/cowimage/watchingcatposter.jpg’ title=’Eeeeeeeeeek!’ thumbnailURL=’http://www.perpetualocean.com/tetherdcow/cowimage/questionmark.jpg’ imageWidth=’350′ imageHeight=’494′ thumbWidth=’20′ thumbHeight=’20′

More post-WP 2.1 update woes here. After upgrading to 2.1 the following error appears in a popup window when I click the Popup button:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare get_locale() (previously declared in /home/.marcella/cubelodyte/cubelodyte.com/wp-includes/l10n.php:3) in /home/.marcella/cubelodyte/cubelodyte.com/wp-includes/wp-l10n.php on line 8

Has anybody else reported this behavior?

So?!!!
when is the update?
I`m only waiting this plugin to be updated to update to 2.1!!!
If it`ll take more than 20 days please tell us!

All good, my name is Sandrus Marcellus and tried to install plugin Popup in mine wordpress (www.sandrus.liveserver.com.br) but did not function, plugin appears in the bar but when I ask for to open the image I appear an error and it does not open real the so great image. Thanks a lot

It’s working!!!!!!!!

Great plugin thanks!!!!

Thanks for the download. John

I’m having the same problems that others have posted, namely the thumbnail I can view fine but the full size image I just get a file not found error.

tried all sorts, changing the popup.php path in options, using relative and absolute URL addresses, nothing works!

Shame because it would do what I need!

Regards

Gary

Stephen – is there a way to have an option in the plug-in where a link opens to the image in this pop-up self-closing window, instead of using a thumbnail? I tried removing the thumbnail src in hopes that the default would use the title as a link, but no luck.

sorry, didn’t read up high enough. here’s the answer:

Add by hand all image sizes, put your popup.php in root dir, delete path to popup from options.

This is EXACTLY what I was looking for about two years ago! I want it… will it work on WordPress 1.5.X? Please let me know!

Everything is working great! (inserting and popping up) One question – the popup pic doesn’t give the user an option to scroll because it’s too large to fit in the new window. here is the code:

is there anything I can do? the full size pic is the PERFECT size, I just need it to scroll so the user can see the whole thing. thanks!

ok, it took some looking, but my problem is a simple code fix. to resize the popup windows and have a scroll bar, edit the plugin code for the following:

do a CTRL-F for “scrollbar” and change to scrollbars=yes also change “resizable” to resizable=yes

that will fix the image so that you can see the whole thing should the fullsize image be too large for the standard popup.

this is an AWESOME tool! thanks for making it!!

Hi Stephen,

nice neat plugin you wrote. It does however miss one tiny little option.

I’d like to link the popup image to text in my post instead of a thumbnail, can that be done?

Definitely CONGRATS!!

I know the feeling. My wife and I just welcomed our 1st into the world ….

If anyone can be of help that would be grat .. else I will look at other options until he is back at it.

Thanks for the information Geof.

Hi,
I like your plugin – it looks very simply but it just does what I need. But… when I try to use it (under WP 2.2) and click on the image, it opens new window without an image, there is only piece of code inside ”. Do you have any idea what’s wrong?

Stephen, one suggestion.

Would it be possible to implement a mouse-over popup function?

Instead of clicking the image to popup the image in a new window, make it so that when you mouseover an image it shows the original image. Might have to use javascript or something.

Or make the popup thingy AJAX so when you click the image, the image rolls up/down to show in original image size.

Just my 2 cents.

Looks like a beautifully simple plugin! But I can’t get a “Popup” button to the quicktags bar, either in Rich text or code editor. I’m using WP 2.2, activated the plugin, moved the popup.php to the root directory. But no button – has anyone solved this problem? Is this plugin compatible with WP 2.2?

Spoke a little too soon! I’ve got the quick tag button!

But it only appears when creating a new page or post – not when I want to edit an existing page. As I have mainly pages, it took me a while to realize this.

I’ll give it a go.

This plugin RULES!

Thanks man..

Regrets from Chile.

Thanks for the plugin!

I have a slight bug, perhaps more of an oversight, you probably wouldn’t expext people to use you plurin as I do…
I recently started to publish translation of a renaissance treatise on my WP pages and I use your plugin to put the original images in the text. Everythink works fine, but I sometimes the original pictures are bigger than my screen resolution – popup window is then too small for them. And since there is no way to scroll or resize the window (at least I didn’t find any under Firefox), sometimes there is lower end just missing… any help?

Great! Thanks a lot

Hi Stephen!

I was looking my error logs and check this out:

PHP Notice: Undefined index: persistent in /home/admin/mydomain/wp-content/plugins/popup-images/popup.php on line 8

What is that?? my site works fine, but im pretty worried about this..

Any help?

Thanks!

I’m also having issues with aligning of images. The plugin works, and works great, I just can’t get the image to aling left/right, so I can wrap text around it.

Has this ever been resolved? And if so, can someone pass the information along to me, so I can fix my issues, as well?

Thanks.

Any idea to do a frame of the thumb?

Thanks!

I am trying to make this work on a new site and it works on the main page as a post, but for pages or for posts details (when you click the permalink), the path is added to the popup window’s URL and, of course, the image is not displayed.

I was wondering if there is something I need to change in my options or if there is some hack needed to the plugin itself? I thought I had everything set up properly, but when I click through to a post or if I have this popup coded into a “page” on the site, the full path of whatever (post or page) is being passed to the popup.

Can you help? The site I am working on is http://www.seren-i-tees.com/

Thanks for any feedback.

It’s always something super simple.

In case anyone experiences the same “problem” (I caused it), in the admin panel for the path to the popup page, I did not start that path with a “/”

Great popup!

Thx for this plugin

Thx alot

Thanks let me try.
