[Tutorial] How to change the alignment of thumbs
« on: June 12, 2002, 12:19:33 PM »
The alignment of the table that contains the thumbnails cannot be changed with html files from the template but has to be changed in the php files.

pages that are affected are:

lightbox.php
search.php
categories.php
index.php

look for a line that contains:

$thumbnails .= "<td width=\"".$imgtable_width."\" valign=\"bottom\"

change "bottom" to "top"

I have done this for

http://www.bali-pictures.com

p.s.

if you want your images and text centered you can try adding

align=\"center\" to this line...
Thats It !

Thank you so much for this answer! I love what you have done to incorporate 4images on your site. It looks fantastic. I have another question ... how did you change the number of new images displayed? Is it in the index.php file as well.

True for vertical alignment but not required for horizontal alignment.  You can achieve horizontal centering by editing thumbnail_bit.html   This is a better approach, in my opinion, because you won't have to restore your edit with a new release of 4images.

Simply make the following line the 1st line in the template:
<div align="center">

And close the html tag by making this the last line in the template:
</div>

Ok, ok, you persuaded me. I've changed the default alignment from "bottom" to "top" for the new version 1.7. ;)

Your first three "must do" before you ask a question:
1. Forum rules
2. FAQ
3. Search

To align the thumbnails that appear when you have them activated for you categories. I found you have to go to the file:

includes/function.php

Search for the following code:

Code: [Select]
      $categories .= "</table></td>\n";
      $categories .= "<td valign=\"top\" width=\"".$cattable_width."\" class=\"catbgcolor\">\n";
      $categories .= "<table border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"".$config['cat_table_cellpadding']."\" cellspacing=\"".$config['cat_table_cellspacing']."\">\n";

add a align=\"center\" to the bottom line. So it would look like

Code: [Select]
     
      $categories .= "</table></td>\n";
      $categories .= "<td valign=\"top\" width=\"".$cattable_width."\" class=\"catbgcolor\">\n";
      $categories .= "<table border=\"0\" align=\"center\" cellpadding=\"".$config['cat_table_cellpadding']."\" cellspacing=\"".$config['cat_table_cellspacing']."\">\n";

This took me about 4 hours to find. Hope this helps someone.


Thanks
Craig
