Publisher Random Item Image

I thought I saw something here about adding the article image to a random item block but I can't find it again

Does anyone know where it is, or how to do it?

Re: Publisher Random Item Image

ok, I found it

in items_random_item.php

$mainImage $itemsObj->getMainImage(); // check to see if GD function exist if (!function_exists('imagecreatetruecolor')) { $block['item_image'] = $mainImage['image_path']; } else { $block['item_image'] = PUBLISHER_URL . '/thumb.php?src=' . $mainImage['image_path'] . '&w=' . $imgwidth; // No $imgheight for autoheight option }


template publisher_items_random_item.html

<img src="<{$block.item_image}>" alt="" width="100" height="100" align="left" style="padding:5px;"/>


Now the big question... I also have coding to display a default image if an item doesn't have an assigned imagefrom this thread

So, how can I get the random item block to show the default image, if an assigned image doesn't exist.

Basically, both bits of code have to be merged

Re: Publisher Random Item Image

Another question

the file random_item.php is not a large file

where does that code go?

You can add a check to see if the image is empty and then substitute your default image. Something like:
$mainImage $itemsObj->getMainImage(); // check to see if GD function exist
if (empty($mainImage['image_path'])) {
    
$mainImage['image_path'] = <path_to_your_default_image// this should be something like "publisher/default.jpg"
}
if (!
function_exists('imagecreatetruecolor')) { 
    
$block['item_image'] = $mainImage['image_path']; 
} else { 
    
$block['item_image'] = PUBLISHER_URL '/thumb.php?src=' $mainImage['image_path'] . '&w=' $imgwidth// No $imgheight for autoheight option
}


I believe your default image should be placed in the ./uploads /publisher directory.

Re: Publisher Random Item Image

ok, where should that code be placed in random_item.php

I'm not sure exactly which version you're using so I can't give you an exact line number but.... just add the following:
if (empty($mainImage['image_path'])) { 
    
$mainImage['image_path'] = <path_to_your_default_image// this should be something like "publisher/default.jpg"
}


immediately following the line:
$mainImage $itemsObj->getMainImage();


in the items_random_item.php file (from the code you posted above).

Re: Publisher Random Item Image

unfortunately, that code crashed the index page

it's
XOOPS Version XOOPS 2.5.8.1
PHP Version 7.0.17
mySQL Version 5.5.52-MariaDB

and publisher is

'version' => '1.03',
'module_status' => 'RC 1',
'release_date' => '2016/07/06',

according to the xoops_version.php

Probably did crash it...

I assumed that when you said the code above came from items_random_item.php that it did, apparently not. Where did the code above come from?

Afraid not... Here's the code from GitHub v1.03 RC1 for ./blocks/items_random_item.php:

getHandler('item')->getRandomItem('', array(PublisherConstants::PUBLISHER_STATUS_PUBLISHED));
    if (!
is_object($itemsObj)) {
        return 
$block;
    }
    
$block['content']       = $itemsObj->getBlockSummary(300true); //show complete summary  but truncate to 300 if only body available
    
$block['id']            = $itemsObj->itemid();
    
$block['url']           = $itemsObj->getItemUrl();
    
$block['lang_fullitem'] = _MB_PUBLISHER_FULLITEM;
    return 
$block;
}


*Edit: You can see it directly here:
https://github.com/XoopsModules25x/publisher/blob/1.03_RC1/blocks/items_random_item.php

You won't find the original code you posted in there anywhere... So you must have gotten that code from somewhere else.
