CMS Made Simple Forums

Ok I went through the forums and tried alot of what i saw like changing the "File Creation Mask" to 002 but i still have no thumbnails either in the image manager or the albums module.

I am not a expert so can someone give me some idea as to what i need to do to get the thumbnails?

my gd looks like:

GD Support  enabled 
GD Version  bundled (2.0.28 compatible) 
FreeType Support  enabled 
FreeType Linkage  with freetype 
FreeType Version  2.2.1 
GIF Read Support  enabled 
GIF Create Support  enabled 
JPG Support  enabled 
PNG Support  enabled 
WBMP Support  enabled 
XBM Support  enabled 


thanks in advance.

I see that it makes the thumbnails for .gif but not for .jpeg or .jpg I dont understand this at all.

ok tried ImageMagick instead of GD.. still no thumbnail creation.

So I guess nobody can help me with this at all? That really sucks.

Are all the folder permissions set to the handbook specs?...

Hello,
Maybe nothing, but does an: admin panel > Site Admin > Global Settings > Clear Cache
make any difference. Assuming you do this after any changes you make in an effort to
solve the problem. Oh, maybe also  "forced reload" of your browser too.

Anyway, like I said; maybe nothing. But thought I'd try.

I checked the handbook and set the following folders to CHMOD 775 because they were 755:

    * tmp/templates_c
    * tmp/cache
    * uploads
    * uploads/images
    * modules

Still no thumbnails.

Edit: It might be related, but the packaged image editor throws errors when testing out the rotate ability.


Edit 2: Unknown - Clearing cache does not resolve this issue.

I'll venture a guess here; unless you're running a really old PHP version, I'd suspect that either a
file is actually missing, or that your include path is'nt sucking in all the files needed to perform the
task.

You would probably do well to check your include path to make sure that it is able to find everything
related to CMSMS and all it's trimmings. I regret that I am not yet familiar enough with CMSMS to tell
you exactly which file isn't getting included. I could discover which one for you. But your attached
picture clips off the name off the file I need to check against.

well I dont know whats going on... but I did get it to work. I uninstalled the whole thing and reinstalled. then made the file sizes it would accept larger. now it appers that everything is working great.

Not sure if it was the file size thing or not but it works now so i am happy.

I would also like to add I reinstalled as well and resolved the issue.

I retained the old (broken thumbs) site test1.warmace.info incase any cmsms dev would like to play with it.  Just send me a e-mail.

[solved]  ?...

its solved for the most part for me... I found it had to do with the image sizes i uploaded. If I upload smaller sizes it appers to work fine.

Thanks

Yes there is an image size restriction/problem, I believe it's not really a problem as you don't really want that 6-8 megapixel image to be used on your site as it would slow the page render to a crawl even if you use size restriction in the CSS or some other way to make it appear smaller on the page...

just my 0.02$...

Im switching this to solved...sort of 

After reinstalling CMSMS it fixed itself.  I have no idea what broke it in the first place, there was little i did to change the site.
