WordPress Watermark Plugin?


Question

I'm trying to use a watermark that automatically adds the watermark image to the bottom of a post thumbnail automatically. I don't want it added on the image, but I want slapped right under it. Like 9GAG! :)

Anyone know anything about this?

Use CSS then.

.ImageDIv
{
position: relative;
}

.Image
{
padding-bottom:10px;
}

.Watermark
{
position: absolute;
bottom:0px;
right:0px;
}

I already have that by doing this:


#left .crop {
display: block;
overflow: hidden;
margin-top: -40px;
text-align: center;
}

#left .crop img {
margin: 40px auto 0;
}

But I'm aiming for a WordPress PHP plugin that creates the watermark automatically. Not like Watermark reloaded though, because I don't wanted added on top of the image, but right under.

That has all you need to make said plugin.

It'll only just tell me the same thing Watermark Reloaded does in that manual.

I've had the pro version of Watermark Reloaded before, and it only adds the watermark on top of the image. I want it added under, just like 9GAG where it can be hidden until someone tries to take the image.

Do you want the watermark to still be a part of the image, just under it instead of overlaying it?

I think what they are looking for is a plugin that will not have a watermark on the image until it is either saved onto the client machine or linked out to another page. So on their own website it is not intrusive however, if you steal the image it will have a watermark.

I do, I don't want them separated. Check out the site http://wtfyo.com. That's what I'm working on. If you move or take the image to the desktop, you'll see the image, but that's only because I photoshopped that watermark on there and CSS'd it to be 40 pixels hidden by overflow & margin.

Another thing is, not only can there be uploads within the dashboard, I have to make sure this function works in a custom upload page.

Ok. So you want something like this: http://myers.in/testing/test.php but without the fading?

And then you can just set a containing div to the correct height with overflow:hidden; to make it appear as if there were no watermark.

YES! That's what I want! :D Of course, without the fade haha. I say built in instead of uploading with the watermark is much better and I can prevent images from being linked outside with .htaccess I suppose. :)

Alright. That's easy enough to do, but it will take a little bit of work to add compatibility for more than just '.jpg' images. What kind of images will you be displaying (.png, .jpg, etc.)? Also, if you could post a bit of the code where your image handling is done, that would be very helpful.

For now, just png & jpg. This is running on WordPress, so the image source is ran from <?php the_post_thumbnail('full'); ?>. But I can get just the post thumbnail url instead of the <img> tag that it creates.

Well, this is probably something you would want to happen to the image as soon as it's uploaded. If it's just png and jpg, it shouldn't be very difficult at all, but I actually meant the code that handles the upload, not the code that displays the image after it's uploaded. If you would rather do this to the image per request, that is possible as well, but not as clean...

This is what I'll be using, I used to have it fully modified. It's basically a plugin that utilizes the custom post type and whatnot for WordPress.

Hm...what is the media_handle_upload() function in submit_user_images.php on line 171? I can't seem to find it and I believe that is where the image data is actually being handled.

You know what the actual idea of programming is, right? You learn how to code and make things do what you want. You seem to do the hacking idea, well not even that actually - more 'what I needs exist, I do not need to know how it works and cannot make any of it myself'... You will not get far like that in programming at all, in fact if you take a course in programming you'd fail the first test and be kicked out.

Bad programmers copy and paste.

Good programmers write their own code.

Great programmers write their own code, and recheck it and search/plan for areas that might have problems.

Programmers that are the bad link in companies and leave large gaping security holes and broken sites/features are those that don't even know what they're doing, and right now you fit into this category.

Making the watermark appear below the image on something that it overlays over the top is so simple that if you read the PHP GD guide (if you haven't then you shouldn't be doing ANY manipulation of images at all in PHP) it'd be probably 2 lines of code that you'd change in the whole thing, and you'd know exactly what lines to search for too.

The image handles are still worked through WordPress' core. That's where I'd have trouble too.

Can you stop? Honestly, if this was plain PHP, I'd honestly work a little harder on it because It's more natural to code on, but this is WordPress, I have to comply with the core functions, nevertheless the security I have to ensure. I have priorities right now to build off what I can until I can refine what's most suitable for me.There's a reason why there's a community of developers. Real programmers help each other out.

You've listed 2 WP plugins that do it but don't position it correctly, I've linked you to the OFFICIAL PHP guide for how images are manipulated in PHP, if you had any clue about PHP you'd be able to read it and notice that you need to alter a few lines in the existing plugins to get what you want, it is NOT HARD, in fact it's VERY basic PHP-GD, the functions to search for are all listed on the page.

Don't say it's because it's wordpress, you can't do it when a simple solution exists. Try the simple solution instead of repeatedly bashing it and you might learn some PHP in the process.

EDIT: In fact, the http://wordpress.org...rmark-reloaded/ plugin which was mentioned previously says it can already do this;

'Watermark outside picture'.

The process is to add the watermark UNDER the image which creates a new size. Those plugins are just offset alignments. There are people who learned PHP through WordPress and the help of of programmers. Sometimes the book is just not quick enough.

You do realize that's a "To-Do" list, right?

*slaps self*

Apologies for not reading right.

So I revised the upload function so that it will directly post to the main taxonomies, additionally making them only pending so I can decide whether it's good or not. it utilizes the media function just like Watermark reloaded, so I think the upload & merge function will come pretty handy. :)

    • How old is this tip? Seems 15-20 years old? Processor states for the CPU under Windows power options has been a thing for a long, long time. It certainly isn't new or hidden... Also, with laptops it doesn't make any difference what OS you are running, all of them are configured for battery longevity over performance, for obvious reasons.
    • I can't believe Starmer is still there...his party lost so big. He's a stubborn coot, but this is largely unenforceable, so I would imagine he'll be resigning soon. A key here is for parents to buy their kids phones sans Internet access--and set up the Internet at home, where mom and day can, you know, act like parents instead expecting the government to raise their kids.
    • EA launches in-game advertising platform for brands to "connect with audiences" by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The gaming giant Electronic Arts is exploring more ways to inject real-life brands into its games. Announced today as EA Advertising, the new platform is attempting to make it easier for brands to reach out for deals with the company and put their products inside titles like EA Sports FC, Madden, NHL, Skate, or The Sims. EA revealed that its EA Sports side of the company brings in "hundreds of millions of players across console, PC, and mobile" every year. Fan engagement of these titles was also touted as being "extraordinary," with 23,000 NFL seasons worth of games being played in Madden NFL daily, while EA Sports FC sees over a billion matches a day. “Players come to EA’s games and live experiences every day to play, watch, create and connect,” said David Tinson, Chief Experiences Officer at Electronic Arts. “That gives brands a meaningful opportunity to show up in ways that add value and respect the player experience, while maintaining authenticity in the worlds our teams are building. With EA Advertising, we’re helping brands become part of those moments in ways that are relevant and built for players.” Using the new program EA Advertising, brands will be able to inject their products into games in real-time via dynamic placement. EA says partners will have access to everything from stadium signage in sports games and targeted adverts to in-game content custom-made for the brands. These are described as additions designed to "enhance, not disrupt" experiences. "In these interactive gameplay environments, brands become part of the game itself, reflecting how players engage with advertising in real-world contexts," adds the company "Brands can activate across live environments, tailoring placements to meet campaign objectives, and update campaigns with ongoing optimization informed by aggregated engagement insights." Current real-world brand partnerships EA has built into its games include Visa (EA Sports FC and College Football), Lowe's (EA Sports FC, Madden NFL, and College Football), Red Bull (EA SPORTS FC), Xfinity and Peacock (EA SPORTS FC), and Mountain Dew’s (College Football).

    • UK to ban under-16s from social media following a six-week trial with teenagers by Paul Hill Credit: Pexels A few months ago, Neowin reported that the UK was trialing a social media ban with 300 teenagers for six weeks, that testing has come to an end, and Prime Minister Keir Starmer has announced that the country will ban under-16s from social media. Starmer said that this technology is making children unhappy and making it easier for bullies to harass and abuse them. He continued to talk about the addictive nature of social media, saying that it uses an infinite scroll designed to lock users in for hours. He said this interferes with children doing their homework, reading, playing with friends outside, and going to bed on time. Tackling the idea that nothing can be done about social media, Starmer said: The government’s action won’t stop at social media either, the PM said. It plans to take action on gaming services and livestreaming platforms. Right now, he said, strangers can contact any child unchecked. He said this wouldn’t happen in real life, and the government is going to stop it from happening online, too. The Labour government has overseen the introduction of the Online Safety Act, a big change to the internet which includes age verification on adult websites. This has led to a fair bit of backlash, but overall, the government is pushing ahead with these changes.
