Hello,

Just installed latest version of JDownloads.

I've set both setting for pics and pdf's to 'yes' for generating thumbnails on uploading.
Both GD Library & ImageMagick library / Imagick PHP extension are present:
Status: GD Library is present.
Status: ImageMagick PHP Module 'Imagick' is present (installed today by host)

But no thumbnails are generated, no images in jdownloads/screenshots/thumbnails folder, only the no_pic.gif

In front I only see a broken link pic: http://brandwebservice.nl/nieuwsbrieven/download/2-nieuwsbrieven/3-test

Can someone have a look at it please.

Jon.

Hi
Tried but Site was offline!!
Might need admin access to see the setup.  Please send details by Private Message.
Is this any Thumbnail or just pdf ones.  Have you set up User Group Settings.  Is the main file uploading OK?

Could you look at this article - it might help http://www.jdownloads.net/documentations/item/what-does-imagemagick-do

Hi
I have checked out jDownloads and all is well.  Created an account colinm and a usergroup siguploader. 

Note that it is only pdf files which get a thumbnail created automatically by ImageMagick - it worked AOK.  I made the second Download from the front end (temporarily enabled login)

Also added a thumbnail to the first download by using the Image section.  Also added notes in description to say what was done

Hello ColinM,

Big smile here, thanks very much.
I'm making a responsive website so still need some css styling to have it look good on a phone.
But hey, it works well.

Hi
Glad to help!  The responsiveness is almost entirely down to your template.  Gantry is pretty good.  I can use jDownloads front end AOK on my Tablet and on my Samsung phone - both use Android. Backend is not good on phone due to lack of space but ok on tablet.  Please let us know how it goes.  Changing the CSS is something I look after.  Have plans after we get to stable release.

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year
Colin

Hello Colin,

I checked and it works in front smoothy  :D

But when I try to upload in backend no thumbnails are auto generated.
Is there a setting i'm overlooking?

Thanks in advance,

Jon.

You mean the thumbnail creation? For pdf or images? Or both?
Have you installed the last version 3.2.20?

Yes, I have latest version but can't seem to auto create the pfd or image in the backend. In frontend it works.
I'm uploading as super admin.

Thx, Jon.

Hi,
i can not reproduce this here. I can upload images in the backend and get always created the correct thumbnail. Only pdf not tested yet.
This is the reason why this topic is marked as 'Solved - not a bug'.  ::)

Sorry to say but I'm getting a little confused here ...

In what browser are you uploading in the backend? Maybe that's the reason, I'm not getting the auto thumbnail.

Maybe it isn't a bug but what am I doing wrong then?

In front end all is okay in backen no auto generated thumbnail  :-\

Did you login the correct website because I don't see you did in Users page in the backend.
