Sharing images

[javerill]

Our gallery at www.sassylilsketches.com/photos will not allow us to share pictures in our forum at www.sassylilsketches.com/forum.

I can share images from anywhere else on the internet. So I assume it is either in my gallery of phpbb forum.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Jim

Please upgrade to 1.5.10.

What do you mean by share pictures? Please explain a little more, what exactly are you trying to do?

Sounds to me the op wants to embed pics in their forum posts. (and I'm only guessing)

A couple of things to check.

1: If you have the transparent overlay switched on in your gallery, then you'll just get a blank image in your forum.  If you can post a thumbnail from your gallery to your forum, and not a intermediate or full size image, then this is more than likely to be your problem.

2:  You have you pics set so that guests cannot view them, you have to be logged into your gallery to see them, therefore if you are viewing them in the forum, and not loggeg into the gallery you won't see them.  (Disregard this if you have your gallery and forum bridged, as it should work).

Yes, the users what to embed the picture from the gallery into a message in the forum. I will check on the transparent overlay in the gallery. I am logged in as the administrator and still can't see them so I am sure the guest wont be able too. Finally my gallery and forum are bridged.

I have included a screen shot of what is happening when we embed an image from our gallery.

What code are you using to embed it?
also, please create a test account since you don't allow unregister access to intermediate photos.

username is testing and the pw is testing

Ito embed it, i just click on the img icon and copy and paste the shortcut to the image.

I assume you mean like this?

Code Select Expand

That won't work as it is a link to the page not an image.

Try this plugin http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php/topic,57432.0.html
It will add prebuilt bbcode to the file information so that they can copy and paste it into the forum.

Forgot to mention.
This does work:

Code Select Expand

That is a deep link to the image.

Jeff,
Thanks for your help! I download the plug-in and it looks great in the gallery and my wife loves the additional features it provides. However I don't see how it has helped in the forum.

I have included a screen shot of how i did itIn a strange twist she can right click on an image and copy the properties and past that into the forum and it works.

I was right clicking and selecting copy shortcut and that wasn't and still isn't working.

[javerill]

forgot the screen shot

[Jeff Bailey]

Go to the plugin manager
Click on the bbcode config
Change this setting to yes: Show pre-built BBCode in file info
Go to an image in your gallery
You will see in the file information section: BBCode: {some code}

That is what users must post in your forum.
code in your screen shots are links to pages not images.

Thanks Jeff!
