Overview
** This plugin will no longer be updated. **
This plugin does three things:
- It creates rewrite rules that let you create nice urls for your images,
like “http://example.com/image/55/DSC_0001.jpg” instead of “http://example.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/DSC_0001.jpg”” - It let’s you resize and crop images. And you can add unsharp filter to them too.
- It adds a function, simple_thumbs_img() and with this function you can create ready-to-go IMG-tags
that outputs the correct width and height, even if you choose to resize or crop your image.
Rewrite Rules/Nice Image URLs example
Instead of this URL:
http://example.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/DSC_0001.jpg
Your image can have this URL, where 55 is the Attachment ID:
http://example.com/im…

Frequently Asked Questions
Changelog
0.4.1
- IMG tag can now have a class. For example: $img_src = simple_thumbs_img(“id=55&tag=1&class=’my-image-class'”);
- if id provied is not the id of an image (wp_get_attachment_url returns false) then an empty string is returned. Solves “divided by zero”-errors.
