I am currently running the next release on my site if anyone wants to play around with it and try to break it.

 

[Zynektic]

I'll give it a go later, I am usually good at breaking stuff - cannot wait!

However, bigger banner icons pleeeeeease

Bigger banners are already on the wish list. But, I don't think I'll be able to squeeze it into the next release.

 

[Zynektic]

No worries, as long as they come

@Gossamer ...

I will probably limit the size of the forum description to a single line, say 150 characters. XenForo itself allows a much longer (almost unlimited) description. The reason I want to do this is so we don't have people writing a full description of their group in the forum description when it should be in the group description.

Does this sound reasonable to you?

Would it be possible to have 300-500 characters max? Or a configurable option for a longer description field. I agree that it shouldn't be unlimited, but my players would often need a few sentences.

I'll make it a 500 character limit. I think that's more than enough to summarize what a group is. Much more than that and it defeats the purpose of the long description for a group.

Banner width and height options will be in the release on Friday.

 

[Zynektic]

Thank you!

The above was when I uploaded a picture, the extension was right but I tried another and it uploaded but never changed the image to the new banner, any ideas?

 

[Zynektic]

Okay, seems to be working now, not sure why the other image did not work but a third try and it changed fine.

Could you post the image on my site so I can try it and find out why it didn't work?

 

[Zynektic]

Well, I have it set to 250 x 80, a logo I tried did not resize, guess its not scalable or whatever? But also it will not save the image sometimes until I upload a different file named ones.

I also resized the image attached here to 250w x 80h and it gave the initial error I posted above also.

Another thing, if you adjust the height up (had it on 200) it adds a HUGE gap between other group banners too so moved it back to 80px height.

That would be expected and is why this note is in the options..

@Zynephix

Please re-download the add-on and upload the files to your server (no need to import XML again).

I missed suppressing errors from the imagedestroy function and I'm not going to increment the version for the two '@' characters that were needed.

 

[Zynektic]

Cheers mate! Will do it once back from the shop.

Could you also upload one or two of the files that won't resize for you?

 

[DaveM]

Outstanding job done on this updated version with some very nice features added, well done @Snog

These are not saving or changing at all =\

I also just uploaded a new image completely and it went back to the one prior to this update =\
