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. :)

    • I just looked on my computer and there are settings and log files for utilities I have never even turned on!
    • O&O ShutUp10 3.1.1104 by Razvan Serea O&O ShutUp10 offers a simple yet effective way to take control of your Windows privacy. It provides access to almost 50 privacy-related tweaks, most of them hidden or not easily accessible to the average computer users. Using a very simple interface, you decide how Windows 10/11 should respect your privacy by deciding which unwanted functions should be deactivated. Using ShutUp10 you can easily disable Windows Defender, turn off telemetry, disable peer-to-peer updates, turn off Wi-Fi Sense, disable automatic Windows updates, turn off and reset Cortana and more. ShutUp10 allows you to create a System Restore point before you apply any changes, so that you can revert your system at any time if you run into problems. O&O ShutUp10 is entirely free and does not have to be installed – it can be simply run directly and immediately on your PC. And it will not install or download retrospectively unwanted or unnecessary software, like so many other programs do these days! O&O ShutUp10 Free and Premium The latest version brings O&O ShutUp10 Premium, expanding the app’s long-standing privacy controls with automatic enforcement of user-defined settings. Instead of manually rechecking options after every Windows update, users can set their preferred privacy configuration once—or apply recommended settings in a single click—and the tool continuously monitors them in the background. If Windows 10 or 11 re-enables disabled features or introduces new data collection paths, Premium restores the chosen settings automatically without user intervention. The free version remains available and fully functional for manual adjustments, offering the same core privacy controls for Windows. However, the Premium tier is aimed at users who want long-term, hands-off protection, adding automatic reapplication after updates, ongoing monitoring, and optional notifications to ensure privacy settings remain consistent over time. O&O ShutUp10 3.1.1104 changelog: Added “Show Differences” button in the overview panel “Don’t show again” option for the restore point prompt Ctrl+F keyboard shortcut for search/filter functionality Detection and linking of system-wide and user-specific setting associations Automatic search while typing PREM: Option to preserve notification counters and timestamps across application restarts PREM: Reset blocked settings button in the Settings dialog PREM: Informational message when no settings are blocked PREM: Update check can also be triggered from the menu PREM: Notification deduplication and activity log summary feature Improved L005 “Disable Windows Location Service”: Version-specific split (up to Windows 11 23H2) and new variant for Windows 11 24H2+ L001 (Disable Location): Added Night Light warning to the description in all languages Search now detects setting IDs even when ID display is disabled and offers to enable it Detection and removal of Copilot/AI desktop apps in RecallTerminator Optimized High DPI support PREM: Reset button is now only enabled when blocked items exist – setting IDs are shown in the confirmation dialog PREM: Updated tray icons with higher-resolution versions PREM: Activity Log timestamps now use localized date and time formats PREM: Tray icon status now uses OK/Warning indicators and localized tooltips PREM: Recall folder detection switched to service-based detection PREM: Copilot uninstallation now provides UI feedback and improved verification Fixed Description text was not displayed correctly for the last item and disappeared when clicking the scrollbar Crash when clicking a search result heading or the […] button PREM: Installation path is now correctly preserved during upgrades PREM: Tray icon was not reliably removed when exiting the application PREM: Main window was not displayed correctly in single-instance mode PREM: Incorrect display of the & symbol in tray icon tooltips on Windows 10 PREM: Fixed notification flooding after sleep/standby PREM: Dashboard was not refreshed after applying recommended settings during onboarding PREM: Progress bar was not reset after deleting Recall folders PREM: Fixed service startup failures PREM: Fixed incorrect drift detection when Automatic Protection was disabled PREM: Notifications now correctly count all deviating settings when protection is enabled PREM: Registration Wizard was shown after sleep/standby despite a valid license Download: O&O ShutUp10 3.1.1104 | 76.4 MB (Freeware) Download: O&O ShutUp10 32-bit | ARM64 View: O&O ShutUp10 Home Page | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • Fascinating...W h i t e P o w e r is now also asterisks out.  
    • In the past few days I have noticed two odd moderation activities. First, when I posted the term 'White Nationist Christian' it was asterisk's out. When I changed it to **** it was allowed! Second, in the Politics is a ###business thread I was allowed to post that the GOP is a party of p e d ophiles but I was censored  when I posted the GOP are a party of p e d ophile protectors. Wtf Neowin. Please explain.
