(Formally known as Fresh Page) WordPress gets pretty close to becoming a practical content management solution with this plugin.Create multiple custom write panels, add custom fields (images, drop downs, file upload, images, checkboxes, textareas, etc..), photos can be automatically resized, cropped, watermarked, drop shadowed, and modified in many other ways (this plugin comes with php_thumb).In addition to being able to upload files from your computers, you can also retrieve Images from 3rd party sites on the fly.The core of this plugin was written by Scott Reiley (http://www.coffee2code.com/wp-plugins/), Joshua Siguar (http://rhymedcode.net/projects/custom-write-panel), and Eric Pujol (http://phpthumb.sourceforge.net/). All we did is add a bit of freshness.

I’ve been testing the plugin and I couldn’t find the way to upload the files directly to my uploads default folder through the ‘file’ custom field.

I have a similar problem as RUDE. I’d like the Photo custom field to upload images and generate thumbnails in a specific directory, but I can’t manage to change it.
For example, I’d like the photos to be uploaded to /wp-content/uploads/image/ instead of the default directory.
I’ve tried editing phpThumb.config.php but I’m a PHP newbie and can’t understand half of the code.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

In the file RCCWP_Post.php the first function is save_files(). In that function you can change the path that files are saved to. Hope that helps.

I can’t seem to get the image upload or file upload fields to work.
Pictures say it better then words:

Are there any special instructions to get this to work? I’ve tried this on a fresh install of Wordpress 2.3. Any help would be appreciated, thank you.

It looks like you may have a file permissions problem which is preventing Fresh Post from saving the uploaded files to the fresh-page/files directory. Check to see that the files directory is writable.

Thanks Kris got it working now.
The directory “files” didn’t even exist in the fresh-page plug in folder in the first place.
Kinda odd that the directory wasn’t included in the zip package. Oh well guess someone forgot to add it.
To anyone that was having the same problem as me:
-Add the directory “files” to the fresh-page plugin directory
-set its chmod/ permission to “777″

How I can add few list box fields like “Model No.”, “Maker Name”, “Price”, etc…?
Thank You.

Thanks for bringing that to our attention, Mark. It seems that when wordpress.org creates the zip file from the SVN repository it removes the directory structure. Grabbing the plugin from the svn repository directly should work though.

Hello,
Working on an archive (paper’s page), I’m interested on putting the descriptions of the custom fields on the form, something like
“custom field” “(description)”
the form where we specify the value of the custom field
My english is not as good as I would like, so I’m not sure I can explain it.
Doesn’t matter if I can do it, you made a great plugin, thanks, be sure you’ll appear on the credits of the web.

Hi,
The plugin seems very attractive and I have got it working correctly including pictures being downsized correctly when I create with a Custom Write panel.
BUT
Is anyone seeing this behaviour: I have selected the option to warn if editing a post created with the standard edit window.
When editing such a post, the warning displays and I choose “Edit with custom write panel” having chosen the custom panel I want. I do my editing and include an image. I save ie publish and I get a message on blue background: “The Post that you’re about to edit is not associated with any Custom Write Panel.” (But I had chosen one!) If I ignore this and display my edited post, all replaced data is present BUT the picture has NOT been reduced in size.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

Hi, first of all great plugin, makes showing clients how to add something to their site a lot easier. I am having a small problem with it however.
my custom photo field is called ‘recipephoto’ and the c2c_get_custom function i have included in my loop is trying to add an image with the following link…
‘/wp-content/plugins/fresh-page/files/1196334258woowoo.jpg&h=120&w=120&recipephoto’
this causes phpthumb to throw an exception (because it doesnt know what the variable ‘recipephoto’ is)
i cant figure out why this is being included and when i delete it and load the image manually it loads fine (so the upload and resize functions are working fine)
‘/wp-content/plugins/fresh-page/files/1196334258woowoo.jpg&h=120&w=120′
any ideas?

can you show me the code you’re using to spit this out?
November 30th, 2007 at 7:42 am
sorry i’ve resolved it now. i had written the fieldname in the “custom” input box because i didnt understand what that was for.
It would be good if there was an option for image quality, when using a hot custom field. phpthumb automatically sets it to 75 and i wasnt sure how to override it so i just changed it in phpthumb.php

Hi,
I am currently redeveloping my website using WP and the custom write plug-in. However I’m getting a problem where when I write and save a custom post then go back to edit it I cannot see the information that I had entered. I can’t seem to get my information to show either. However I have check my database to see if the fields have been entered and they do appear to be there. I think this problem started after upgrading to 2.3.1 has anyone else come across this problem and is the a common fix?

Hi.
I have managed to get Fresh Page working at starting my Word Press afresh (guess I should have taken heed and switched off all plug ins before upgrading!). I have come across a new problem. Having successfully uploaded images (after creating the ‘files’ folder under the ‘fresh-page’ directory) when I try to view the image I get a error. On further inspection it looks like phpThumb (or FreshPage) is write the directory ‘fresh-page’ as ‘fresh_page’ resulting as a 404 error. How and where do I change it so that URL is written correctly?

Hi.
I have resolved my URL problem by renaming the directory containing FreshPage to ‘fresh_page’ however the problem I am experiencing now is that my server doesn’t seem to like the the long absolute URL’s that are generated by phpThumb and it prevents me from viewing my images even through the back end:
http://wiardweb.com/dev/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/fresh_page/phpThumb.php?src=http://wiardweb.com/dev/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/fresh_page/files/1196851396flyer_web_BassInUrFace_Oct_front.jpg
However when I make the link relative by remove ‘http’ part I can view my image:
http://wiardweb.com/dev/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/fresh_page/phpThumb.php?src=files/1196851396flyer_web_BassInUrFace_Oct_front.jpg
Could anyone tell me where and how I change it so that URL’s are generated as relative links as opposed to absolute? I have been looking at the phpThumb.config.php file and thought I had found it on line 32 however changing line does seem to help.
Any suggestions?!?
