It would sure be nice if the program would auto-resize images uploaded.

We have many clients that don't have a paint program to change pictures to the specs the program requires.

It would be a nice update/add-in if when they upload a picture and it is not in the required format/specs that it would change it to what is needed. Some users do good just to log in to the program.

Help!

Hi kulr.

Thanks for posting and welcome to the board!

The good news here is that Listings Manager already has an option to auto-resize images that get uploaded for you.

All you need to do is make sure either the Perl version ImageMagick or GD is installed on your server. If one of these is installed (with default settings), Listings Manager will detect it and automatically start resizing any image you upload.

To check whether or not one of them is installed, just log into Listings Manger and go to Setup Options. Under the head “Thumbnail Options” you should see the first line saying “Perl image module detected”. If one is installed, it will say which one and what version it is. If nothing is installed it will say thumbnails not available.

Based on what you find here, images should already be having thumbnails created, or you’ll need to get in touch with your host to ask them if they can install a module for you.

Does that all make sense? Have a look and let me know if you need anymore details Smile.

Ok... checked with ISP and we have both on our server. He asked if it had to be a certain version? He said they have 6. something of IM installed and that GD was also installed and ask what version is your program looking for? I am running the 2.52 ver of Listing Manager and did go in and look and it says no module detected.

Thank you
