Hello,

My system is Xoops 2.5 (which has recently been upgraded from 2.0.17)

and using CBB 3.08 (upgraded from NewBB 2.1)

The settings

Maximum Image Width,
Maximum Image Width for creating thumbnail,
Maximum Image Height for creating thumbnail

are all set to zero.

On the first day they were 600, but then i set them all to 0.

Now when the members try to use the codes from the free image share sites like:

Resized Image

When you click on the thumbnail, it pops up a window which shows the thumbnail again.

Any ideas to solve this problem?

Thank you in advance

As i see it pops up the thumbnail image when you click on it here either...

This wasn't a problem with newbb 2.1

tell them just to us the image link in the images properties not the links that are catering for other software.

so does this mean, the previous images with thumbnails which were posted before the upgrade to newbb 3.08 won't be shown by the new system

and when they post a series of images with big sizes to the forum, it will take long time for loading them because they are no thumbnails in fact, they're just resized by the system..?

the system resizes them and displays the scaled down image (which is then - the scaled image - saved on your site), you probably need to investigate and make it clear to your users (say in your FAQ) the differences between prescaled links and plain images that get scaled by xoops.

The scaled image will be in the cache once it has been generated and viewed.

And work out which image hosting services links to use within your site.

As to what will and won't show from before - I have had headaches with some photohosting services changing the way they implement things.

I will announce the new system to my members but i still plead if there is an advise on making thumbnails work with cbb 3.08, which were previously posted with newsbb 2.x
