NCODE IMAGE RESIZER FOR VBULLETIN 3.6
-------------------------------------
version: 1.0.1
I. What does it do
------------------
This plugin enables you to automatically resize every user-posted image which
is larger than given dimensions. Users can choose the maximum dimensions and the
resize method to use.
The resize methods are:
- No resizing
- Enlargement in the same document
- Enlargement in the same window (replacing the forum thread document)
- Enlargement in a new window
It also adds an information bar (which is not displayed when the image is too
small) giving information about the original dimensions and filesize. Filesize
is only supported on Internet Explorer, other browsers don't reveal this
information through javascript.
II. What does it not do
-----------------------
- It does not do server side resizing of images. Everything is done clientside
- It does not prevent long loading times. The images have to be downloaded completely
by the client before the script can resize them.
III. Installation / Upgrade
----------------
1. Upload "ncode_imageresizer.js" to the clientscript directory in your
vBulletin installation.
2. Import "product-ncode_imageresizer.xml" in your vBulletin forum. Enter your AdminCP
and go to Plugins & Products -> Manage Products. Click on [Add/Import Product] and
refer to the XML file.
The installation script will detect which database modifications have to be
performed and will display the query that is going to perform these modifications.
If something fails, execute that query yourself.
3. The file "vbulletin-language-nl.xml" can be used to import dutch versions of the
used phrases. Import it in your language manager and overwrite the installed
language "Nederlands". It will not remove any phrases, just add new ones.
The installation adds a couple of settings, phrases, templates and plugins, all of
which are easily recognizable. It also adds the fields `ncode_imageresizer_mode`,
`ncode_imageresizer_maxwidth` and `ncode_imageresizer_maxheight` to
your `user` table, in which the resizesettings are saved. These fields are
removed when the plugin is removed.
IV. Configuration
------------------
Administrators can change the maximum dimensions and resize mode in the options window.
These values will be the default for users without a setting of their own and
anonymous users.
The installation script creates a new option group called "nCode Image Resizer Options"
in which you can enter these values.
As said in section I, users can edit their preference in their User Control Panel
at the Options page in the "Thread Display Options" section. The administrator can however
limit the options the user can set. The administrator can choose between letting
the user change all options, no options at all, only the resize mode, or all options except
that the maximum dimensions can't exceed the default dimensions.
