This is how I use it with Wayfinder or Ditto

Basically I’m creating a thumb only if a thumb was not uploaded:


this is using PHx

Maybe you can tell us more about what do you want to do.

I am building out a bespoke eShop which uses Template Variables to allow user to input details and a photo of a new product to the eShop site. Therefore I would like some way of creating a thumbnail at a percentage size of the original from the original photo they upload via the template variable input.

Is this possible? I am not overly technical so would appreciate a walked through explanation... ;]


Thanks!

Should be exactly like this for Wayfinder and Ditto



In a template should be



the above displays a thumb of the image with the w:75, h:50 and quality 95.\

PS: just replace showcaseItemImg with you TV name.

Thanks! Although when i use the sample code in my template it does not work - it creates a broken image placeholder when viewed within the front end site. The code i am using is



Should this work? I have noticed no call to the phpthumb snippet or plugin is on the page? is that correct?



Thanks ;]

Plugins aren’t called from the document; their code is automatically inserted into the parsing process at the point specified in the the plugin’s System Events tab.

Thanks - so then the plugin must have not installed correctly if this is not working?

Have you done this step?
"-Create a new snippet called phx:phpthumb and paste the contents of snippet_phx_phpthumb.php"
from INSTALL.txt

Also do you have PHx installed?

Yep - but perhaps its not installed correctly? only thing i can assume must be wrong..?
