Thumbnails By Squark on 06 Nov 2008 11:30, last edit by leiger on 14 Oct 2009 01:20 Well, recently Gabrys did a really good job! Thanks to him! Now, all you guys can see what's on the other Wiki without navigating to it :) Maybe it's not really truth, but sort of. Thumbnails can be accessed via url: (copied from the new official documentation: Wikidot automatically generates thumbnails in various sizes for: every Wikidot site every theme on the themes project The URL for site thumbnail is: http://thumbnail.s.wdfiles.com/thumbnail/site/<site_domain_name>/<size>.jpg <site_domain_name>: the main URL for site, for example: www.wikidot.com <size>: one of 160, 80, 40, 20 The URL for theme thumbnail is: http://thumbnail.s.wdfiles.com/thumbnail/theme/theme_name/size.jpg <theme_name>: the unix name of theme <size>: one of 500, 240, 160, 80 Examples: http://thumbnail.s.wdfiles.com/thumbnail/site/sfugamedev.wikidot.com/160.jpg http://thumbnail.s.wdfiles.com/thumbnail/theme/curvature/240.jpg "old" Notes: There is no large.jpg. For larger view, please navigate to the page :D There are no thumbnails for private sites Thumbnail system isn't perfect. Sometimes (but really rarely) thumbnails might: — be blank — the page didn't load fully when the thumbnail was created — look like error 404 — this happens on sites, which are hosted by wikicomplete.org — contain a windows of saving files — this happens, when the site has strange iframes (e.g. with flash objects) — contain a top bar from FF with warning of pop-up window — same as above We have no influence on this kind of behavior, it is caused by the way the site was created and where it's hosted. Edit: The links have changed from *.png to *.jpg in light of the changes described here. Tags: thumbnail Related Community Blogs No Community Blogs have similar tags to this post. Rate it up ? Discuss There is the "The Thumbnails service" documented since 8.8.09.. Helmuti_pdorf 19 Sep 2009 07:23 http://www.wikidot.com/doc:thumbnails - "The Thumbnails service" (i make the link visuable) on the documentation describes how to use it now. Could be the limitations explained in the blog entry are existent today too… please - have a look. Should we write a "howto:Thumbnails service" ? Service is my success.
