In reply to: [Amazon Product in a Post Plugin] Randomly now product imageHi Don,
thank’s for your answer and sorry that I didn’t have the time to test it earlier! I just installed the new beta version and it works fine.
You can see the result (all product images are displayed now) here:

In reply to: [WP Realtime Sitemap] Hide some pages from the sitemapNever mind, I figured out that there is already a input field for excluded pages.
Please update the screenshot section of this plugin –> take out confusing “publish privately” screenshot to hide pages from sitemap.

In reply to: [Amazon Link] Fetch more than one imageHi Paul,
thank you very much for your help, again!
Problem one occured with ASIN B001NQHN7S. I added the array_unique() function and now it works fine.
For the second problem – I use the %IMAGE% and %THUMB% function together in the sub-template for faster loading time of the images. Your hint for number 2 worked fine as well!
You may be curious about the result?! You can look at the image gallery at this page:
http://www.bestkidsoutdoortoys.com/little-tikes-activity-garden/
What do you think? Any more improvement ideas?
my gallery template:
<div id="gallery"> <div class="mainImage"> %LINK_OPEN%<img src="%IMAGE%" class="mainImg" id="mainImage_%ASIN%" alt="%TITLE%" title="%TITLE%" />%LINK_CLOSE% </div> <div class="thumbnails"> %IMAGES% </div> </div>%IMAGES% sub-template (reduced to essential part):
%LINK_OPEN%<img src="%THUMB%" class="thumb" onmouseover="changeImage('mainImage_%ASIN%','%IMAGE%');" />%LINK_CLOSE%Mike

In reply to: [Amazon Link] Fetch more than one imageHi,
great work! It nearly works like a charm right from the beginning. I tried to set up the template and install my example gallery in it and it works fine, except of two things.
1. I tested two products from amazon. In one case, the main image was posted twice (index 0 and 1). How can this be possible? I looked at amazon.com and the picture wasn’t duplicated there… Would it be possible to check the received variant images for same image URL?
2. I wanted to use %THUMB% and %IMAGE% inside the sub-template for %IMAGES%, but %THUMB% was only replaced by the main image’s thumbnail. Would it be possible to change it that way, that %THUMB% will be replaced according to %IMAGE%?
I will tweak around a little bit more with the CSS and template and will post the result here then so that you can see how it looks.
Cheers,
Mike

In reply to: [Amazon Link] Fetch more than one imageHi Paul,
thank’s again for your answer.
The page you mentioned shows exactly what I was thinking of how the gallery should look. The last 30 minutes I made an example gallery with jQuery and CSS and it works fine. So, if you provide the “mechanics”, I can and will do the rest.
Regarding the unique “id” for the image being updated I would propose “mainImage_ASIN”, where ASIN is replaced by the products ASIN.
To point 3: The template which describes each image would be some kind of a subtemplate? Or is it a template which I include in my own gallery code?
Also we could think of getting small (for the thumbnails) and big size (for the main image) images from Amazon. So if someone doesn’t look through the gallery we don’t have to load all the big size images…

In reply to: [Amazon Link] Fetch more than one imageHi Paul,
thank’s for your fast answer.
Ok, my thoughts on this multiple image function:
I was thinking about two div-container. In the top one I would display the image in big size, in the bottom div I would insert the thumbnails of all pictures. If a visitor hovers over the thumbnails in the bottom div-container the big image will change to the one the mouse focuses. Similar to the way Amazon used to display their images untill now. Do you unterstand what I am thinking of?
For that function the addon should have one setting –> maximum number of pictures. Everybody could make his own template and the maximum image setting would prevent screwing the layout.
template would be something like this:
<div><img... /></div> <div>%IMAGES%</div>or
<div><img... /></div> <div>%IMG% %IMG2% %IMG3% %IMG4% %IMG5%</div>Where %IMAGES% respectively %IMGx% outputs not only the image link, but the complete code meaning <img src=”…. /”>
