[6.4 - 6.5 - 6.6 - 6.7] [finished] The Thumb Hack

UBB.Dev

Description: This adds a new ubb code (thumb). When a users posts an image with the thumb tag it is display with a fixed width of 400 pixels (you can change the code to have any width). When you click on the image it opens the original fullsize in a new window.

This DOES NOT reduce the size of the image, you are still downloading the whole pic file. It does provide an alternative so that people won't use IMG to post 1600x1200 images that stretch the topic page and look really ugly. This is great for gaming sites that have a lot of screenies.

I also added the reverse code so that it is quotable and editable (it broke if HTML is turned off before that).

Thanks! its appreciated

Muhahahahahahaha

I just noticed that this was not allowing the posts to be quoted or edited properly if HTML was turned off...fixed now.

Works great in 6.5 -

How do I add a THUMB button in the UBBCODE section?

Thanks!

Add this in public_common.pl after or in between any other UBB Codes. I have mine after [Linked Image]

Mod updated for 6.6+:

https://www.ubbdev.com/ubb/upload/00000494/thumb67.txt

Plan on installing it tonight

... the only part of "advancecd-er text" i wanted

Let me know how it goes, Randy has been using it for years, but I've never tried it. It's pretty straight-forward tho

My members love it, it keeps the pages looking neat and tables within the browser.

Now to find the "thumb" image I made lol...

Does it look like this?

Gizzy, the image is located in the Even Advanceder Text hack.

Oh yeah, got to plug it again

My thumb.gif is in there? fun fun fun! lol

I added this hack to v6.4, but where do I find the results? I don't see it anywhere (CP nor Forum)

You see it when you use it... use [thumb] [/thumb] around the images you need to show a thumbnail of
