Displaying cached full size images - kilroy - 2016-07-02
I am using getFullImageURL() in my templates to display the full sized image.
By default, this shows the original image from the /albums/ directory.
Checking the [i]cache full sized[/i] option in Admin > Option > image does not change this: the original image is still displayed (is this normal?).
Selecting the [i]protected view[/i] from the dropdown menu has the following effect:
[list]
[*]when the image is uncached, it displays an "ugly" URL like:
http://www.france-in-photos.com/zp-core/full-image.php?a=alps/haute-savoie/chamonix-valley&i=chamonix-4-2.jpg&q=75&wmk=!&dsp=Protected%20view&check=bcf98c0ca2648deec4224592d3df1b7035b67dbb
[*]as soon as the page containing the image has been loaded, the image URL becomes :
http://www.france-in-photos.com/cache/alps/haute-savoie/chamonix-valley/chamonix-4-2_FULL.jpg
[/list]
The problem is that Google does not like the "ugly" URL.
(the image link is broken)
These images thus cannot be indexed in Google images.
Is there a way to ensure that the cached image URL is displayed every time, even at first page load?

`Checking the cache full sized option in Admin > Option > image does not change this: the original image is still displayed (is this normal?).`
The descriptions tell you that this option does nothing unless the `protect full image` option is also set.
To pre-cache the full images you will need to add an image cache size to the cacheManager plugin and run the cache manager `cache the images` function. F0r the size part of the cache size simpley type
"FULL"

Thanks for your prompt reply, sbillard. I took a look to the cache manager plugin and the full image size already appeared.
I have done the caching process on one website and it seemed to work fine.
Now waiting for Google to index the images.
