The system will automatically crop, but you can update the thumbnail at any time with 12cropimage. My wishlist includes permalinks which aren't easily done in PP and I've looked at Drupal and Wordpress for an answer. Drupal has ImageCache for manual thumbnail creation but I haven't found anything similar in Wordpress. I wondered about porting 12cropimage but it's old and doesn't work in IE. In any case, I'm planning to try out PhotoQ and wondered if manual thumbnail crops were possible if not within the system then with another plugin.

I'm really impressed. The only thing that can be improved is the auto-cropping, resizing feature. Whilst it works well, it works best when the original images are of a similar aspect ratio to the thumbnail / single image. If for instance the image is a portrait, being cropped into a letterbox, most of the time the subject's head won't make it into the frame. It would be amazing if it was possible to hook up an image manipulation script, like jcrop (<a href="http://deepliquid.com/content/Jcrop.html" rel="nofollow">http://deepliquid.com/content/Jcrop.html</a>) to allow WP editors to select the best crop of each image after they've uploaded them, falling back on the default crop as needed.

But only in a WPMU (WP3 beta 1) enviroment. And yes, with my mod works everything except ftp. Anyway, saturday I have to reset my example site, so I could tell you exactly if ftp upload works in single user mode under WP3. Obviously I'll use always ORIGINAL version (and not mine modified!). As soon as I'll (re)try it. One answer: in my imageshack code I have to set "$domainqphoto = 'http://www.example.com/'" . There is a way to load absolute url of site dinamically without change this part ? And last: I have had this problem <a href="http://www.whoismanu.com/forum/topic/invalid-argument-supplied-in-foreach-on-post-queue#post-682" rel="nofollow">http://www.whoismanu.com/forum/topic/invalid-argument-supplied-in-foreach-on-post-queue#post-682</a> but with your correction now it works perfectly!

It's a text field where I put several metakey (or postmeta) information (in my case -and for now- imageshack url and imageshack thumbnail url). In this way -in the future- I could add other multiple metakey information (as data map or photonotes) without change database or other photoq php files (but only queue uploadphoto function). In text box data are recorded in this way (in my example): photoQKeyImageshack{}http://imageshackBigFileURL.jpg}{photoQKeyImageshackThumb{}http://imageshackThumbFileURL.jpg As you can see I use '{}' to separate name of metakey field from his value and '}{' to separate several metakey information. 2) Code to insert in classes/photoQ.php at lines 789 (in uploadPhoto function): $multikey = ''; $imageshackoption = true; $domainqphoto = 'http://www.example.com/'; $fileshackdir = $this->_oc->getQDir(); $fileshackdir2 = $fileshackdir . basename($file); $posfileshackdir = strpos ($fileshackdir, 'wp-content/blogs.dir'); $fileshackdir= substr ( $fileshackdir , $posfileshackdir ); $fileshackdir = $domainqphoto . $fileshackdir; $fileshack = $fileshackdir . basename($file); $fileshack2 = $fileshack; if ($imageshackoption){ $source = 'http://www.imageshack.us/upload_api.php?url=' . $fileshack. '&action=transload'; $fileshackBig = ''; $source_page = file_get_contents($source); if (strpos ($source_page, '<image_link>') != false) { $posfilestart = strpos ($source_page, '<image_link>') + 12; $posfileend = strpos ($source_page, '</image_link>') - $posfilestart; $fileshackBig = substr ($source_page , $posfilestart , $posfileend);} else {$fileshackBig = 'error';} } if($fileshackBig != 'error'){$multikey = 'photoQKeyImageshack{}'.$fileshackBig.'}{';} if ($imageshackoption){ if (!$fileshack) { $source = 'http://www.imageshack.us/upload_api.php?url=' . $fileshack.

NOTE: please don't laugh for excessive number of line code I use for my imageshack function ;))) kagliostro on "Integration with Wp-O-Matic" http://www.whoismanu.com/forum/topic/integration-with-wp-o-matic#post-848 Sun, 02 May 2010 13:18:54 +0000 kagliostro 848@http://www.whoismanu.com/forum/ For Imageshack: there are two or three different function API to load image to imageshack. But the only one that works for me is to load this page in PHP PHP: $source=http://www.imageshack.us/upload_api.php?url=' . $fileshack. '&action=transload' $source_page = file_get_contents($source); where fileshack is obviously image file to load on imageshack. Now I have to do a break, but after I will explain exactly what I have done for integrate imageshack with photoq.

This is PERFECT! b)I have set different ftp directories for each blog (obviously). This is PERFECT! (and more, when I have put an inexistent ftp directory, plugin alert me with an error message and this is FANTASTIC!) c) when I go in POST->PhotoQ->ADD PHOTO TO QUEUE, I see "import from FTP directory". This is OK! d) when I click "import from FTP directory" now it see the (different) list(s) of files in (each) ftp directory. This is PERFECT! e) when I click Import/Enter Info.... NOT WORK! (and give me a blank page with "Save Batch Info" button: the same page that I have received several times when I try to adjust my imageshack function).

I'm really stupid: I didn't pay attention to $_FILES variable. And now I'm thinking that I'll could use directly this "if(!$result = $wpdb->query("INSERT INTO $this->QUEUE_TABLE (q_title, q_imgname, q_position, q_slug, q_descr, q_tags, q_exif, q_date, q_fk_author_id) VALUES ('$title', '$filename', '".($this->_queue->getLength())."', '$slug', '$descr', '$tags', '$exif', '$dateTime', '$post_author')"))" if something will go wrong with uploadphoto function. Today I'll try everything and I'll refer you what happens. Thanks alot and... again, this the best plugin I have seen!!! whoismanu on "Integration with Wp-O-Matic" http://www.whoismanu.com/forum/topic/integration-with-wp-o-matic#post-840 Fri, 30 Apr 2010 16:07:41 +0000 whoismanu 840@http://www.whoismanu.com/forum/ hi francesco, first of all thanks a lot for the donation. 1) your error is probably due to the fact that since you are not doing a real form upload, $_FILES['Filedata'] (needed in _handleUpload()) is not set (plus there are some $_POST fields that are also needed inside the uploadPhoto() function in addition to the function arguments). i am really not sure whether you can cheat photoq somehow into believing that it is getting a regular upload. this was simply not foreseen. i plan to make it more easily extensible in the future, so i will add an upload capability for 3rd party code as an item to be evaluated in this respect. right now however, i fear that there is no straightforward way for doing that. 2) i guess yes. i didn't try it but i think if you replace <code>PhotoQHelper::isWPMU()</code> with <code>false</code> in the following locations it might work: - PhotoQ.php in the _isFtpUpload() function - PhotoQOptionController everywhere except in the getImgDir() function - panels/upload.php replace the single occurrence - panels/options.php replace the one followed by the comment <code>//WPMU version has no imgdir and ftp setting</code> 3) sure, always interested. thanks a lot. kagliostro on "Integration with Wp-O-Matic" http://www.whoismanu.com/forum/topic/integration-with-wp-o-matic#post-835 Thu, 29 Apr 2010 09:40:06 +0000 kagliostro 835@http://www.whoismanu.com/forum/ Hi Whoismanu I really believe your is one of best WP plugin I have seen! I just made you a 5 euro donation (it's second time in my life ;)) cause your plugin high quality!!! But I have a request: 1) I want to use Wp-O-Matic RSS aggregator plugin to insert photo-post feed item in queue of PhotoQ. SO I have tried to add and use uploadPhoto function (of classes/PhotoQ.php) in wp-o-matic code (deleting original "$postid = $this->insertPost($wpdb->...." function). But I receive always error! I don't know very well php, I made only little adjustment to my wordpress plugins. So I want to know how to use photoQ upload photo routine in external plugin. There is a way? 2) I use a WPMU installation with 2 blog for simplify my blogger life. WPMU blogs are only mine: so... in this case is there a trick to use FTP option in WPMU (modding internal code)? 3) I have added Imageshack upload possibility in uploadPhoto function. After several proofs now it works (and put imageshack url of original photo in a q_shack cell in queue row). If you are interested I can send you my (poor) code so you can develop concept. I believe it can be useful for people with hosting with limited file transfer. I'm using: - Wordpress 3 beta 1 with buddypress (and last version of PhotoQ perfectly working) - Bluehost hosting with PHP 5 and FASTCGI THANSK IN ADVANCE Francesco whoismanu on "Multiple Watermarks" http://www.whoismanu.com/forum/topic/multiple-watermarks#post-763 Wed, 03 Feb 2010 12:06:27 +0000 whoismanu 763@http://www.whoismanu.com/forum/ hi. thanks for your post. interesting idea, i haven't thought of that yet. i will put it on my list of things to evaluate. however, i have to tell you that this list is already pretty long :-) i guess in one of the next versions i will include a plugin api so that more specific features like this one can also be implemented in plugin form by someone else. kevinpowertv on "Multiple Watermarks" http://www.whoismanu.com/forum/topic/multiple-watermarks#post-756 Wed, 27 Jan 2010 01:51:42 +0000 kevinpowertv 756@http://www.whoismanu.com/forum/ Is it possible to have more than one Watermark image? It would be cool to be able to choose which watermark you'd like to use on the photo or assign a certain watermark to a specific category. whoismanu on "PhotoQ SmugMug integration" http://www.whoismanu.com/forum/topic/photoq-smugmug-integration#post-177 Tue, 16 Jun 2009 23:20:50 +0000 whoismanu 177@http://www.whoismanu.com/forum/ forestwander, thanks, glad you like it! honestly, i haven't looked into things like this yet. so for photoq there is at the moment no way to do this and i don't really know how you could add this and how much work it would require. Forestwander on "PhotoQ SmugMug integration" http://www.whoismanu.com/forum/topic/photoq-smugmug-integration#post-162 Wed, 10 Jun 2009 21:36:22 +0000 Forestwander 162@http://www.whoismanu.com/forum/ First of all PhotoQ is great! Thanks for making such a great plugin. Is there someway that PhotoQ could send my original images to my SmugMug Pro account (with their API) for ordering and printing? If not are there any other hacks or mods that you all know of that could do this for any affiliate printing program? And if not is there anyway that this could be done on a custom program contract or something? Thanks for any feedback. I am using WP 2.7.1 and PhotoQ 1.6.5
