CLIP duplicate files UI missing

[Jim Kirkpatrick]

When I first installed CLIP, there was a third section on the CLIP page: View all images with duplicates. It no longer shows up. There is code for it in /plugins/clip/pages/search.php:

<?php

    if (checkperm("a") && $clip_enable_full_duplicate_search) {

        $duplicate_url = generateURL("{$baseurl}/pages/search.php", array("search" => "!clipduplicates"));

        ?>

        <div class="BasicsBoxCard">

            <h2><?php echo escape($lang["clip-duplicate-images"]); ?></h2>

            <a href="<?php echo $duplicate_url ?>" onclick="return CentralSpaceLoad(this,true);">

                <i class="fa fa-fw fa-search"></i>&nbsp;<?php echo escape($lang["clip-duplicate-images-all"]); ?>

            </a>

        </div>

        <?php

I have $clip_enable_full_duplicate_search = true; in my config.php but can’t figure out how checkperm is determined. Has it been intentionally disabled?

Hi Jim,

Yes the duplicate checking feature is disabled by default now (as of revision 26930) as it is still an experimental feature. As long as you have the permission 'a' - "Can access the System Setup area" and $clip_enable_full_duplicate_search enabled inside the file plugins/clip/config/config.php you should still see the option. 

Thanks,

Joseph

Thank you for the information. It worked just as you said it would. I do understand how you would think of it as experimental.

We have ~90,000 images in our catalog. With the matching % set at anything below 95%, it would error out. The error suggested that there were too many results to display. So I set the matching % to 100% expecting that to find fewer matches. It did, finding ~2,000. However, the returned results were confusing. There were no duplicate images displayed but rather images that resembled each other but were clearly not duplicates.

Thinking that perhaps the results returned represented images with duplicates, I open one and used the Find Duplicate Images under AI Smart search. None found.

It would be very useful to have this capability. I trust you’ll keep working on it.

Jim
