FriendsOfFlarum Discussion Thumbnail

thaks for your work ,i love this plugin

just a suggest,the plugin will load orign image i think if it can generate thumbnail is better

datitisev

nfr472xb This was a suggestion made by @nitaaikumar as well. However, I didn't want to have to make a system that would resize remote images and save thumbnails to the disk - that could take up a lot of space very quickly and could cause unintended consequences in terms of load, etc... so I decided to use lazy loading instead.

Many thanks for the extension. Clicking on the discussion thumbnail goes to the user profile. How can we do this as a link to discussion?

datitisev

RecepBilgin That is true, I did not think about that. I'll probably add an option to also toggle showing user avatars when no image exists and/or linking to discussion or user.

Hi !

If you want, you can do it with some CSS (I also made the thumbnails a little bigger) :

.DiscussionListItem-author{
    margin-left: -95px;
    pointer-events: none;
    margin-left: 0px;
}

.DiscussionListItem-author .Avatar {
    width: 82px;
    height: 82px;
    border-radius: 7px;
    line-height: 82px;
    object-fit: cover;
    background-color: transparent;

}

.DiscussionListItem-content {
    padding-left: 10px;
    margin-bottom: 10px;
    padding-right: 50px;
    border-top:1px solid #EEE
}

.DiscussionListItem-main {
    margin-left: -82px;
    padding-left: 92px;
    padding-bottom: 50px;
}

RecepBilgin I was able to get over this using the following solution https://discuss.flarum.org/d/26248-remove-the-link-to-the-user-profile-from-the-main-discussions-page

datitisev Hello again, I wonder when the update is published?

RecepBilgin

thank you so much. I'll be happy to offer this update as soon as possible 🙂

datitisev

RecepBilgin I haven't worked on it, and cannot offer a time frame of when this change will be implemented, I apologize.

I really love this plugin however the loading time is really a concern for me. See my github issue: FriendsOfFlarum/discussion-thumbnail1

there is a problem: Loading image really slow if embed image used in post (first image, ofc).

This raises (imho) a few solutions:

Auto download and cache (first) image if they are not saved in server. Problem: copyright?

Create other extension: Allow user choose image for their post to use as post-thumbnail (replace user 's avatar). This photo will be explicit download locally.

DanielOX You can do it with the CSS below. Thanks to @n512

n512 .DiscussionListItem-author{
margin-left: -95px;
pointer-events: none;
margin-left: 0px;
}

.DiscussionListItem-author .Avatar {
width: 82px;
height: 82px;
border-radius: 7px;
line-height: 82px;
object-fit: cover;
background-color: transparent;

}

.DiscussionListItem-content {
padding-left: 10px;
margin-bottom: 10px;
padding-right: 50px;
border-top:1px solid #EEE
}

.DiscussionListItem-main {
margin-left: -82px;
padding-left: 92px;
padding-bottom: 50px;
}

There other UI changes in there as well, but I think the most important one is pointer-events: none;

nitaaikumar Hi, could you please share the link of your forum? I'd like to see how attractive and beautiful it is.

fakruzaruret

is there a demo?

datitisev

fakruzaruret There's a GIF that shows it in the first post.

TOWUK_ru

datitisev on my forum dont work this ext (latest flarum)

clarkwinkelmann

TOWUK_ru what happens? Please describe the problem

I don't think this extension has any user-facing setting. The first image from the post is automatically used.

datitisev

clarkwinkelmann The first image from the post is automatically used.

That is correct.

TOWUK_ru

clarkwinkelmann yes, i dont know how change thumbnail, not button "change thumbnail" etc

hrvoje_hr

It's identical to my Flarum too. Avatars aren't replaced with the first post image.

However, I'm still on beta 12.

datitisev

TOWUK_ru As Clark said, you can't manually set the thumbnail. This extension uses the first image that it finds.

TOWUK_ru

datitisev should I change my profile picture then create a discussion and then change profile picture back?

datitisev

TOWUK_ru What? The profile picture Flarum uses is the latest one. The image shown for the thumbnail is the first image found in the discussion's first post.

TOWUK_ru

datitisev i dont understand "first image", Where will I find him? how to specify it ???
