Image Thumbnails Problem

Post by Delion » 2013-07-19 17:55

ok so I read and searched and found a couple of things first I did this
Try this;
1. Make sure the image filenames are stored in the image field in your database.
2. Modify the image upload path configured in AppGini to point to your actual images path by editing the generated "defaultLang.php" file in the last line of that file.
The images names are stored in my database, however I am not even getting the default clickable icon when I set it to that. The images are being stored with the _tv and _dv as well as the full image, in my images folder however they are not appearing at all in my table view or my detail view. So some help with that would be great, as my path is /public_html/Jobbing/ for the application and my images are set in the folder /public_html/Jobbing/images my current setting in the defaultLang is ./images/

So any help in getting the thumbnails to show would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Delion,

Glad you managed to solve the problem. Your trial & error solution might be useful to others who have the same difficulty. Would you mind posting a small outline of what you found and how you solved the issue?

Thanks,
Kerem

i unchecked "don't Rename Uploaded files" in Appgini Image field, and regenerated the app, then Thumbnail appeared. When i check this option, thumbnails are not generating, i can live with that for time being, but any suggestion to retain the original file name is most appreciated.
My version of Appgini is 5.3.628

Could you provide some examples of the image file names where this issue happened to investigate it please?

Not sure if this is what you are having issues with?

You can create an image field by setting DATA TYPE as VarChar then select IMAGE on the AG Media Tab, set your criteria for the image (configure button) next select FILE UPLOAD on the AG Media Tab, choose "Don't rename uploaded file", click OK, AG Media Tab will jump back to IMAGE selection. Look at the Media Options Summary notes and you will see it now says "Files will keep their original names as uploaded".

The sample images look like they were renamed after uploading. I understand that this setting causes no thumbnail issues. What I wished to investigate is the other case were uploaded images are not renamed and display issues occur. Could you let me know some example file names where the problem happens? (just the file names, no need to post the images themselves).
