need help getting thumb_image to work
Hi, I bought the thumb_image plug-in to save me time as I need to get the Directory going but I still can’t get this to work. I have perused the forums to no avail and there is missing info, broken links (to help) and such so I am giving up and asking for help. Andy, if you are out there I will pay to have this plug-in installed and working properly. I haven’t dealt much with the script as of late so there are things I’m not sure of, such as why is there a “width” and “height” field in the “links” table (but not in Category table) and do I need the “Image” field that I created in the “Category” table or is this causing problems? I don’t think the plug-in is loading at all. I am not seeing any place to put a path to the images in the set up of the plug in (not sure if necessary as path is in table) and this was mentioned somewhere. My Image Magick seems to be working as I did the “test” and the image came up fine and I can use the Image Magick viewer to view image files. This may not mean all is working fine though.
I have installed the plug-in a couple of times but I get the same message. I just want to upload small images to sit beside my categories, sub categories etc. and I was told I could do this with the thumb_image plug in. I downloaded the plug-in for 3.0.4 and I’using the most recent version of lsql. If anyone can help that would be great.
I get this error when I do a “readme” from the plugins panel in admin. Same type of error if I modify a category with an image attached. I can only see these images in admin, not on the actual directory. Thanks, S

Re: [shell] need help getting thumb_image to work In reply to
Hi, Doesn't anyone out there have any ideas as to how to get this plug in to work? I was able to buy it last week but I'm not able to get anyone to give me support and the link to "support" in the admin "plugins" leads to no where and the few lines written about it don't even apply to this version as there are fields in this version not mentioned anywhere. I have downloaded ImageMagick several times, it seems to be working. I can use the viewer and if I click on ImageMagick Web Pages in Programs Dreamweaver comes up. If there are path changes or modifications I have to make I wish someone had told me as I bought the plugin to save time but instead I'm spending more time trying to get it to work. I have loooked around the Goss files for a place to enable ImageMagick as I know older versions had that but I can't find anything like that in the files. At this point I would pay someone to do this as I know that ImageMagick can cause problems for some users. I can see that the path to Image Magick is not being found, but what to do about it? Thanks, S

Here's what I get when I modify a category (or try to) that has an image. The image is only in admin(doesn't show on the web), it's just sitting in the "Image" field I created in the Category table.
