Media, Maps and Template enhancements

1. When a picture is uploaded in any of the modules the picture thumb is cropped to fit, when it would be much nicer if it were to rather resize the picture thumbnail to fit so that the whole picture fits in the thumb or better yet...it could be handle as below (item 3)

 

2. Avatar and Profile picture need to be merged, so that the Avatar is just a smaller version of the Profile picture.

At the moment the Profile picture is resized so the quality when viewing is poor as its a zoomed thumbnail... There should be no quality loss in pictures, thumbnails should be just the resized of the original so when clicking on thumbnail it should bring up the original higher quality picture. When setting the profile picture it should allow cropping, Zooming and moving (panning) of the picture to allow the user the optimum adjustment.

 

2b.  Both the Profile Picture and Cover Pictures should have there own albums from which you can set an existing picture as either the Profile picture and or Cover picture... on profiles there should be an option to either upload a new profile or new cover, or choose from existing picture with a reposition option of current picture...

 

3. Cover Picture should also allow cropping, Zooming and moving or panning to allow user to set the actual cropping, zooming and panning for optimum position and size. In fact it would be nice to have this feature on all uploaded photos.

 

4. The multiple photos uploader (HTML5) is great in the photos module, but it would be nice to have that option in all modules like events and ads and all modules that support picture uploads.

 

5. Also Embedding of external videos like youtube upload, should be added to all modules that support videos, even the ad module should have this option.

 

6. When an embd.ly video is posted on a wall, it should be automatically added to users Wall video album, same for pictures, sounds and even sites... if possible ;) and should be included in the site summary on the index page.

 

7. friend Tagging on all Media needs to be introduced and on posts, plus sharing of posts and media be implemented on other peoples walls or private message.

 

8. It would be nice to have a full picture photo view where you can scroll through the photos by clicking left or right or scrolling the mouse.

 

9. It would be nice to be able to get a full screen map specially from mobile devices, so possibly add a view in fullscreen button to all Wmap elements.

 

10. It would also be nice to when clicking on items in  World map to not just have the part name and link, but to also have the distance from that location to your GPS location (Current Location) indicated with the current weather forecast for that area and the local time. if there is a group of items when clicking on the group it can do a brain storm split showing all items as above on different branches...

 

11. Once the Current GPS Location has been added, Dolphins current location would probably have to change to home location to avoid confusion...

 

12. It would be nice once current location is implemented to have a search filter that show will list all items close to current location... All lists should have an options to list in order from nearest to furthest (Profiles, events, adds etc...)

 

13. The Evo Template is wonderful, but I find that I want a different layout on phones to bigger screens so it would be nice to have a separate page builder for mobile devices with small screens like phones... that way you can customise the page layout separately for pc's / tablets and phones, for a nicer view and more effective view.

 

14. It would be nice if the header with menus on eve template could be configured to remain stationary like the member bar so when on mobile devices specifically you don't have to scroll and scroll back up to change pages.....

 

And thats it for now

When clicking on photos, videos and media etc... in al modules a fullscreen view of the photo or video should be presented where users can flip left and right through the media...

1. You can change it in modules/boonex/photos/classes/BxPhotosConfig.php file:

'icon' => array('postfix' => '_ri.jpg', 'size_def' => 32, 'square' => true),
'thumb' => array('postfix' => '_rt.jpg', 'size_def' => 64, 'square' => true),
'browse' => array('postfix' => '_t.jpg', 'size_def' => 240, 'square' => true),
'browse2x' => array('postfix' => '_t_2x.jpg', 'size_def' => 480, 'square' => true),

2. You can already uninstall Avatar module, and use Photos module for the same purpose

3. We will leave as it is for now, to make it easier, but if we have more reports in the future we'll try to implement it.

4. We'll add it to other modules gradually, but the structure of some module don't allow to do this.

5. If you enable Embed.ly you can already add almost any embed anywhere.

6. Some of wall posts are separate from modules, so it can't be added to the modules.

7. This is already planned - https://github.com/boonex/dolphin.pro/issues/153

8. We are planning to introduce photo viewer like in Trident

9-11. I've added some and there are existing features in the following issue - https://github.com/boonex/dolphin.pro/issues/197

12. https://github.com/boonex/dolphin.pro/issues/202

13. https://github.com/boonex/dolphin.pro/issues/203

14. There is no place for header in EVO template, I would suggest to use another template in this case
