• Photo Calendar v0.1 addon module for WordPress 1.01 or greater.
    Displays a tabular index of pictures posted in your blog as thumbnails in a calendar format, in purely automatic manner.
    Putting it simply, you get a calendar, in each cell of which you get a tiny thumbnail to a picture you have posted in your blog on that day (the first one, if there’s several, just a number of the day if there’s no pictures) which hyperlinks to the archive page for the appropriate day. If you have lots of pictures, the result looks very cute.
    Enjoy. ??

  • curious what you did to make it work – was it an issue of correct path and/or permission?

    For a moment I thought this indeed might be my problem, as I adjusted some of those buttons in WP (i.e. I have buttons to create thumbnails with URL or a popup images) – but I checked, those buttons write relative paths only “/wordpress/images/image.jpg” for example (wordpress is a directory in my root folder).
    I tried now again by creating a folder within the /plugins folder (same directory as the “my-hacks-photocalendar.php”) and I adjusted “my-hacks-photocalendar.php” to reflect that, i.e. for the directory where the calendar tiny thumbnails will be kept I wrote: $calendar_thumbnails = 'images'; and I CHMOD the folder “images” to 777.
    Still no go.

    Your discovery is helping. My setup is: mydomain/wordpress/images and for simplifying testing, I put my thumbs folder into the same plugin directory as the hack. I discovered:
    a) when my img src is called as “/wordpress/images/name.jpg – photocalendar will not take note.
    b) if the img src is called as “/images/name.jpg – photocalendar will take note and now show the blue missing image symbol (as I now was using an incomplete path).
    c) I created an image folder in my domain root directory and tried again. WP now displays correctly the image when called “images/name.jpg” and photocalendar will take note but show the missing image / broken path icon.
    d) looking at the source I see that it’s adding a / before the path, i.e. it shows as: /images/thumbname.jpg If I remove the leading slash in the source, it will find the correct path, but there was never a thumb generated. looking through the hack file, I do not know where that leading slash is generated (it’s not in my thumbs folder name).
    e) right now I am running out of ideas ??

    as a last: seemingly the problem lies in the function siphon_image_url ($string) section, which is lines 64 – 92 of the hack.

    I removed '/'. on line 139 right after .$siteurl. and now the thumbs get correctly created and read: 1/2 solved.
    Now I still need to figure out why postings only show after the 9th of the month and how to change the image_siphon (lines 64-92) so that it sees and reads my images which are in a bit more complex tags than the basic img src tag. Does anyone have an idea how to achieve this?

    Has anyone figured out how to generate thumbs? I’m having the same issue and can’t find a solution anywhere on the web.

    As my website is still getting a lot of hits due to this thread – (above it shows me all as unregistered, but my last post was 2 back with the link to “1/2 resolved”) – I thought I’d mention that I’ve longtime since moved on – never got it to work and for that reason I am using pixelpost with it’s calender add-on and am happy with that solution, it’s not fully integrated but no hassles with it ??

    You can see it working here : myView

    where do i download this from?

    the initial link comes up to a 404 error.

    thanks

    mStudios that is a great site. I love the idea of that. To bad the plugin link is deleted now. Anyone have this still?
