hi,

i have updated to the latest EB version (3.9.19025) and run in a very strange problem with the frontpage image links.

i have made a screencast video for better understanding: http://www.screencast.com/t/Gpy6nUh3IbR
hello noobster,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a weekend for us here.

Yes, actually that was the default behaviour, because the image link should also have a prefix of the template if there's a value for it.

May i know do you face any issues regarding this?

hi Arlex,

i don't get it, why should the image link have a prefix of the templates name!?
it makes more trouble in the long time use as it have any benefits fjor me ...
as a sample, in the activity stream from jomsocial the link of a blogpost are created as hardcoded link, when i switch to another template i have nothing but death image links, not very useful in my opinion

where can i disable this default behavior, i want this feature/bug gone
what if you implement a backend option to disable this or enable this, so that the admin/siteowner could decide on it's own what is best

Hello n00bster,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a weekend for us here. That's the only way for us to identify that the image is generated for the particular template that you are using since we do not store your image data in the database.

i do not really understand what happens there.
some versions before i had not this problems, now my activity stream looks like as a emmental cheese! all EB Blog activity images are gone, only empty placeholder are in the stream entrys!

all blog activity stream entry's with a blog image have this file format "2e1ax_default_frontpage_name_of_the_image.jpg", before i made the update to the latest version.
now i have this format "2e1ax_beez5_frontpage_name_of_the_image.jpg", i want the theme name gone, could you please give me any hint where i can kick this out or disable this.

i had no troubles to regenerated the images with the older version without this template name thing ...

hello n00bster,

Sorry for late reply to this,

Thanks for take your time to described on your current issues,

I have checked in your JomSocial stream, it seems like the first 2 image is not found from your server, that was the reason why the image is how broken now.

-> JoomlaFolder/images/blog/images/64/news/2013/adventkalender-uebersicht-intro/2e1ax_silverfuchs_frontpage_adventkalender-2013-intro.jpg
-> JoomlaFolder/images/blog/images/64/news/2013/adventkalender-uebersicht-intro/2e1ax_default_frontpage_adventkalender-2013-intro.jpg

However, I have tested in my locally and publish a test blog post in your site, it seems like working fine for me even i changed to another template.

If you wouldn't like this default behaviour, you can modify the code under this file :
JoomlaFolder\components\com_easyblog\classes\image.php

//LINE 305
$fileName = $prefix . '_' . $this->activeTheme . '_' . $size . '_' . $this->image;

//Replace with
$fileName = $prefix . '_' . $size . '_' . $this->image;

Hope this help.
