One-click makes "more »" thumbs link disappear from showphoto.php in v7

rklug · December 27th, 2009, 10:29 AM

This issue became apparent following 6.23 to 7.0 upgrade:

The RIGHT-arrow "more »" link for thumbnails on the showphoto.php page disappears after only one click, meaning you can't keep clicking it to preview your way through all the subsequent thumbnail images in a category.

This is only a problem with the RIGHT-arrow "more »", so if you go to the very last image in the category, you can keep clicking the LEFT-arrow "« more" and preview your way backwards all the way to the first image and it works every time without disappearing.

Clicking any of the preview thumbs resurrects the vanished "more »", but another single click on "more »" will make it disappear again.

NOTE: I am running PhotoPost Pro 7.0 with vBulletin 3.8.4 using the default vBulletin style.

Thanks for any help.

The more links will dissapear rightly in either direction if there are no more results based on the search criteria.

I have provided a link to show the links do work so without knowing more about your specific issue its hard to comment.

Chuck, thanks for the reply. I checked the Reeftalk link you provided and noted that the "Show Photos - Number of thumbnail preview columns? Can be 1 or 3." on that site is set to "3". If I set mine to "3", the RIGHT-arrow "more »" link also works properly, remaining visible and functional to repeatedly click all the way through dozens of preview images.

Only when I change the above setting to "1" (which is what I much prefer) does the RIGHT-arrow "more »" link disappear after only one click, even if there are many more images following the 7 currently previewed.

As mentioned in my original post, this is only a problem with the RIGHT-arrow "more »", so if you go to the very last image in the category, you can keep clicking the LEFT-arrow "« more" and preview your way backwards all the way to the first image and it works every time without disappearing.

I hope that makes sense. Please let know if you need anything more.

Well that makes sense into seeing if there is any issue and how to replicate it sure. I dont know how pulling 1 or 3 columns would affect the results but I will surely try and see if I can see anything wrong. Thanks!

Chuck, I'm just following up to see if you've been able to duplicate this issue on any other sites. Sorry to be a pest. I know you're busy.

Nope not a pest. I am not seeing anything wrong the next prev are defaulted to specific queries. You can edit your showsqldebug line in pp-inc.php to be 2 not 0 and post some queries and post here maybe to try and understand why you get no more results.
