Pic Upload works but pics are not displayed

by **TheVorhaut** » Wed Jun 04, 2008 1:58 am

My uploaded images are not shown on the web site although the upload process seems to work correctly. There is just the picture frame on the website with the description. The image itself incl. thumbnail is not shown.

See also my 4 screenshots I made from this issue.

mine has done the same thing, i havnt had much more time to work on this but i have tried to also do this with smaller size images around 50k in size and resized to smaller images too....

Gator81, yes I tried smaller images, too. The problem has nothing to do with that.
So I hope somebody knows the root cause of this problem... ?

I was just throwing out ideas, nothing in stone...but if you do find the answer let me know, I have had no luck with this too.

whats the website address so i may look at the code and see whats happaning

Ulminia, the URL is http://bellicosus.be.funpic.de/ . It is in German. Just click on "Gildeninfo" and then you will see the WoWRoster where one can click on the "RosterGallery" icon.
The direct URL is http://bellicosus.be.funpic.de/index.ph ... terGallery .

Example : your main site logo on the roster page.

Code: Select all

<a href="http://bellicosus.be.funpic.de/"><img src="img/wowroster_logo.jpg" alt="" hspace="0" vspace="0" style="border:0;" /></a>

Your main roster logo has a image URL path, img/.
But the default path from where the roster is called isn't it's root but some other site directory. So all relative paths are wrong.
This is know when you integrate the roster as a whole in another CMS.

Somehow, the roster can't detect its own root.

What might help, is: goto the main CP page, and find these:
Interface Verzeichnis URL
and
Roster Bilder Verzeichnis URL
Place before the img/ path the relatif part from your root-site directory.

But this more a patch.
The CMS that calls your roster has to be modified, or its setup concerning the "roster module".

Tuigii,
I checked the Roster settings and there is not only the /img/ path but the full relative path already:
/components/com_wowroster/img/

The full path is:
http://bellicosus.be.funpic.de/components/com_wowroster/img/

As a result I do not know what to change there in the settings ?

this setting for the Rosters main directory is a issue i will resolve in my next release because ime images are coded to pull from the addons folder thinking the roster is the pase url for the addon not ported in a cms app try this fix

Find line 17 & 18 in the index.php file in the RosterGallery folder edit it and replace them with this

Code: Select all

$imgdir = ROSTER_BASE.'addons/RosterGallery/screenshots/';
$imgdirthumb = ROSTER_BASE.'addons/RosterGallery/screenshots/thumbs/';

and this should fix the images not showing also i will be adding a txt limit to the size of the title of a screenshoot and try to make it wrap or somthing

Cheers Ulminia

$imgdir = $addon['dir'].'screenshots/';
$imgdirthumb = $addon['dir'].'screenshots/thumbs/';

I changed the PHP code according to your proposals but the problem is still there. No images are visible.

By the way:

addon['dir'] dosent work.. tryed at home too has to be hard coded for images

try /components/com_wowroster/addons/RosterGallery/screenshots
and /components/com_wowroster/addons/RosterGallery/screenshots/thumbs/

Code: Select all

$imgdir = '/components/com_wowroster/addons/RosterGallery/screenshots/';
$imgdirthumb = '/components/com_wowroster/addons/RosterGallery/screenshots/thumbs/';

If those are url paths, then you should use
$addon['image_path']
