    Hi,
    I detect, the photo of the day widget show a scaled version of the FULL size picture, no small version as thumbnail.

    Thats generate a lot of traffic, if the picture is big and I want to show the widget at the Homepage.

    It’s possible to generate a smaller picture für the widget in the size of the photo of the day settings?

    Thank you very much!

    Check Table I-C9 and make sure your thumbnail file images are big enough for the potd widget. Then the thumbnail files will be used.

    This ( Table I-C9 ) is not standard on, because one can change the look of thumbnails from fullsize in Table I-C2.

    Hi opajaap,
    thank you for the solution. I didn’t know, thats depend from overall thumnail size…

    I’m wondering that the real generierte thumbnail size is different from the settings. I set the thumbnail size to 405px (my widget content wide is 270px and I need it so big) and the generated thumbnail is 425px. Why are the thumbnails bigger then the settings?

    But it works…

    And the second question:

    I will show all my galleries as slideshow now and I have to enable table 2-B2 in the slideshow that the user can browse the pictures. Works fine!

    But now, in this settings the picture of the day page is a slide show with links too and the users can browse the whole pictures in this gallery.
    Thats a picture of the day and not the gallery of the day. 😉

    Any chance to remove it for the picture of the day or other settings? The shortcode for the picture of the day page is %%wppa%% %%mphoto=#potd%% (It works direct, but not from the widet link).
    Full photo works, but without description. 🙁
    I tried to set a special link in the album to the pagefor the current photo, but it doesn’t work.

    Now I don’t know, what can I do to resolve this issue.

    In a nutshell:
    A link frim the potd widget to show the picture like %%wppa%% %%mphoto=#potd%%

    I know, a lot of questions but I’m looking for a solution with the best presentation.

    Best regards

    The size is rounded up to n * 25 px.

    Configure Table VI-A1: Linktype, set to The fullsize photo on its own

    I tried to set a special link in the album to the pagefor the current photo, but it doesn’t work.

    Check the corresponding PSO box in Table VI

    Yes, I tried out, but is without desciption an I need the description. 🙁

    Check the corresponding PSO box in Table VI

    I tried both, checked and non checked… no effects!

    Works not with the potd widget!

    But I looking forward for a solution. I will try a lot from your many setting options. 😉
