thumbnails from pictures attachments displayed in columns

MillaN,

You made a point, I can understand that. I’m totally dumb on coding, if I have a working website it’s because you and a lot of people more produce valuable hard working.

By what you say I assume it’s a matter of CSS only, so adding some lines to my theme’s CSS I will get it.

Could you hint me with some basic CSS to implement it to my theme? PLS??

Still, if it doesn’t brake your policy for free plugins you also have the option to add styling so that dumbs like me can use it with the option of disabling all CSS for developers. I’ve seen that in other plugins.

Anyway, I really need this styling so time to go deep on CSS, those hints from you are appreciated.

Again, thanks and great job.

Plugin is not loading the stying file, it is embedding it into page header, so changing it has no effect. Point of that file is to use the styling from it, change it and add it to your theme to include what plugin needs and make it look the way you want. When you do that, there is an option on the plugin settings panel to disable embedding default CSS.

I’m close now,

- The datail of the icons clip not showing it’s solved. The url from the icons.png file had to be updated.
- I’ve been searching the web and it seems that IE8 with windows XP doesn’t handles good float command. I guess this excerpt can answer what I’m facing:

floats must always come first before the content you want then to wrap with.

When you place a float it first creates a new line in IE7 and under and then either floats left or right from there. In good browsers however when you float an item it only creates a new line when there is a block level element before it. If you place a float on the same line as inline content then the inline content on that single lie is shifted either left or right out of the way of the float.

Therefore to satisfy all browsers you need to make sure that floats always come first.

So, if this makes sense what can I do to have float coming first?

Do I have another approach?

Plugin has no support for BuddyPress activity stream, and I have no idea how it is displayed there. Plugin only has options to render attached items in the topics and replies. Activity stream does this on its own most likely.

I would, but I don’t use BP, and I don’t have it installed on any of my dev websites, and also, I have no idea what needs to be changed to make that work.

If you find what needs to be changed before me, please let me know, and I can add it into plugin.

Nope, no line breaks from the plugin. Each image is in the DIV and each DIV in LI element, no empty spaces or line breaks added there at all.

Is that file make sense for you?

Still no answer at Buddypress forums or team.

I recall, the issue here is to have activity stream grouping all thumbnails on a li tag as bbpress does. Right now they show at activity stream like this:

This the place where the topic reply is placed/p>

Hi Milan

I’m still in circles with this. Unfortunately I’m not a coder so there isn’t much that I can do on my own.

However I’ve been looking at plugin’s files, bbpress and Buddypress’s files.
As far as I can see there’s one function in plugin used to build the list elements which is embed_attachments that later is refered at this code:
/***
add_action(“bbp_get_reply_content”, array(&$this, “embed_attachments”), 10, 2);
add_action(“bbp_get_topic_content”, array(&$this, “embed_attachments”), 10, 2);
***/

I suppose this code blends GD attachments content with forum topics or forum replies content.

As mentioned before bbpress has a file to set forums activities to Buddypress activity stream: bbpress/bbp-includes/bbp-extend-buddypress.php
This file has the function to set a new activity stream event for each update forums have. That’s where the functions bbp_get_topic_content or bbp_get_reply_content are used to replicate what’s within the updates and to set new variables which Buddypress will need to use.

I suppose the reading of bbp_get_topic_content or the same for reply doesn’t return a list element tag but probably an array of every div elements inside a topic or a reply, that when rendered in A stream are separated by a break line.

Is this make sense?

If you want, please take a look at the file I attached to this message. It’s a copy of the code from the bbpress file that handles the forums updates to Buddypress activity stream.
