Strange Thumbnail Behaviour

#1 Post by mjel »

Hello,

I am getting some strange results - it appears that my thumbs are being generated in an alternating fashion - ie image 1 gets a thumb - then image two gets a thumb - but it is super small - then image 3 is normal thumb --

i have had this happen on 3 different systems - two systems on same template on godaddy - so could be sam eissie - but another system on a vps - where i have root control

i have used ftp to create and upload the folders / images -- as well as letting the system create the folders via zip upload in admiror cpanel --

i have embedded an image of a gallery page.

i made images/stories/gallery and plugins/content/admiror/thumbs 777 recursively --

Image

anyone seen this issue - it seems odd that half the thumbs are created - permissions set incorrectly would not create any i would assume???

You are correct, this definitely is not permissions problem.

Can you post a link to the page with this gallery?

I have seen similar problem like this, and as far as I remember it was a problem with some other plugin that made thumbnails smaller.

It would be great if you could provide a link, maybe I could identify what is the problem :)

Try turning off Smartload in your template options.

Don't know why, but smart load makes thumbnails look funny like that. Thumbs are correctly created, and you can see that if you inspect /plugins/content/AdmirorGallery/thumbs/ folder.

Also you should set Thumbnail Auto Size to height or width, so that images would align better.
