Oho, http://www.telafirma.com/ is down, account suspended!

Anyone know how to change the layout of the thumbnails? By default the seem to all go down in a single column. On the Telafrima site, is showed a block of 4 columns in 2 rows. How do I specify this?

Can the mod be modify such that all the processed photo dont go to "Cache" file.
For example, if the photo is randomly given a name xy84098493983.jpg
then the photo is saved in cache/x/y, rather than cache folder?

I am afraid cache folder crash soon as the number of images increase

Assume a product contains 6 photos, it will create 1X photos in the cache files...

Hi Gee Cee -

Are you refering to the thumbs for detail/variant images?

In the default skin1/modules/Dynamic_Images/product_image.tpl - the number of thumbs in the row is dependent upon the width of the main image. It looks like the mod wants to put as many images in a row as will fit. You can look for the variable "number" in the file to see how it is being done.

I had the same problem as you describe - one image per row in a single column. For me - the issue was that, for other reasons, I had css that made images in table cells display set to block, so for this table, I had to set the display to inline to get it to work as intended. If you have an issue like I had - there may be a style element that is keeping the images from displaying inline?

The cache folder won't crash...you can have thousands of images in there.

What Balinor said. Unless you have definitely had a problem before Ben, this isn't something you should worry about.

Anyone gotten a hold of Telafirma? Or maybe someone has a tip on this issue:

You are allowed to add keywords to the image.. This is an exact copy and paste of the line that allows you to do so in the mod

Keyword to procede cached image name (e.g. keyword-fa494ef54173ca1ea6d85531221037f8.jpg):

So for my site, I added "adult toys" - to all of them. Now, im certainly not saying this is the best way, as this is universal for ALL the products. Individuality would have been the best route to go for each one.

I have some issues also with this mod and id like to see telifirma rehit the scenes here so i may ask him. Hes always been there for me when ive called upon him, so I hope all is allright with him.

Lets not knock em, or get angry, there may be a family issue, or something happening out of his control.. Im sure he will let us all know soon what is going on.

Peace,,,,

There is only one or two things that I could see excusing him at this point and I would hope it's not any of them.

He is running a business. I put a PayPal complaint against him on May 30th for a purchase of the Dynamic Image Generator I made on May 3rd and tried to contact him twice for a week previous to May 30th through his website and I have not received any type of response from him. I am not the only one who has experienced this lack of communication and been left hanging as you should have gathered from reading the posts here.

I would run the other way if you are trying to run a business. If you have any means of getting your money back I would certainly try.

Agreed, however that being said the Dynamic Image Generator mod is a real good mod if you get it installed . Once you have it installed you really don't need much support, unless you're upgrading.

Darryl, were you able to get it installed or did you run the other way and refund it?
