Smooth Gallery Module

[Ruud]

Just to inform the community in case others have the same problem.

The problem was a function (imageantialias) called in the resizer script seems to be unavailable on some PHP configurations / GD libraries.

After removing the call it was working fine.

Code: (/modules/smoothgallery/resizer.php - line 85)

imageantialias ($dst, true);

Maybe this helps someone in the future

this fix to me not work.
I have the problem that the thumbs for some photo not work.

[lausianne]

What do you mean by "some" photos? Some show up as thumbnails and others don't?
Are they all the same format and similar size? Same source?

Hi all, I am new to this forum and just started using website baker. It is a great software, kuddos to the programmers I have installed Smooth Gallery and am liking this so far. Been trying to move the carousel and both the previous and next arrows out of the gallery, but have failed so far. How do I go about so that the carousel is situated vertical next to the gallery? Thanks so much in advance

Hi Mellie,

welcome!

You'll find that people in this forum are mostly very helpful. Sorry, I can't give you the solution. I once tried this myself briefly and failed, too.

Since the Smooth Gallery is not invented here, if you find no solution, you might want to check the original developer's website and forum:
http://smoothgallery.jondesign.net/forums/

Good luck (to both of us ...)

Cheers, Ralf.

Hi Ralf (or shall I say Grützi )... thanks for your reply. I did take a look at the other forum but wasn´t successful despite doing all the recommended changes. Maybe we can both try again? Any suggestions? Viel Glück wünsche ich Dir auch

[lausianne]

Hi Mellie,

say Grützi, if you like, Grüessech would fit even better.
Currently I'm busy with other stuff, Smooth Gallery is not that urgent for me. If I ever get to it again, I'll let you know. Or I'll post it here, anyway.

Cheers, Ralf.


pm. are you in switzerland? (you can send me a pm, too, to avoid private discussions in the forum)

I want to show a set of photos in both image flow as smoothgallery

the imageflow makes thumbs and I do not want to show these thumbs
those thumbs are automatically called refl_....  (on .... is a set of numbers)

is there a way to tell smoothgallery to exclude the files that contain refl_ in the title

[babsy]

Hi anyone knows where i can change the text itself "pictures" - i cant seem to find it anywhere ?

[lausianne]

... imageflow makes thumbs and I do not want to show these thumbs ...

How about using different folders for imageflow and smooth gallery files?
Otherwise you'd probably have to modify view.php of smooth gallery.

[snark]

it all began with a question from the one I am building for

this question was " is it possible that both modules create their galleries from the same folder so that I do not have to upload everything twice ...

I have this great module running fine in WB 2.8... but cannot seem to customize the look when it is running in slideshow mode. I have tried modifying the jd.gallery.css file and the hard-coding in view.php, but still can't achieve what I'm trying to do:

1) Change the background color of the slide show screen. The resizer fills any extra space with black (#000000)  when an image doesn't fit in the defined screen size. The black iss too overpowering for the images I'm showing and the site design. I would like to change it to white (#FFFFFF) if possible.

2) Change the size of font which displays the file name info that slides up at the bottom of the screen. It's too large. It seems to be tied to an <h2> or <h3> style definition specified somewhere, but modifying jd.gallery.css doesn't change anything.

@JJRRSS

modify the jd.gallery.css with "Addon File Editor" in the Backend.
.jdGallery .slideInfoZone h2 and .jdGallery .slideInfoZone p

I was lookig for that too. Found it at /scripts/ jd.gallery.js, on line 74 "textShowCarousel: 'Pictures' ".
I changed it to my language as it still seems to work....

It works for me Thnx

Okay,

I've been using smooth gallery for a while now and everything worked just fine. I was slowly building the site up and just recently transfered the actual domain to the site and went live with it. No when I first started to add new content to the site I suddenly can't seem to get the smooth gallery to work.

I have a site with info pages about buildings and their structures. Every page has a smoothgallery module to show about 5 pictures of the building.

All the pictures are stored in media/buildingpics/city/siteaddress -kind of folderstructure. I've checked the permissions and everything should be fine. I used a ftp-program to upload the pictures. Pictures are all resized to max-height of 768px.

So I had a few pages ready and now I tried to add more. The smoothgallery module in a page is set to 300x400px and the resizer is set to tru. The new images somehow wont show at the "intermediate"-level. The mini thumbs are created and they appear on the carousell and the actuall big picture appears with a click as it should. But the intermediate 300x400 pic is not showing at all.

I just can't understand this. Everything should be the same way as those previous pics that still work fine. In addition two of my new pics also work! Only difference with the new working ones and the ones that won't work is that the working ones are horizontal and the other are vertical. Older pics work in both modes.

Hopefully somebody could help me?

Hey Vidar,
What happens when you set the resizer to 400x400?

[Vidar]

Hmm,

I realized that the new pages contained only one image each at this point. After uploading more pictures the gallery works just fine and all the "intermediate" pictures are shown correctly. Is this a bug or....?

At least everything seems to work once a gain.

[Vidar]

btw,

which css line defines the output style of the gallery description? I would like to get my two line description to match the width of the gallery window. Now the description line runs a bit wider on left and right.

Small adjustment but would make my template look a bit cleaner. For some reason I couldn't find it on the css.

No its not a bug; gallerys only work when there are at least 2 pictures in the directory.

[Vidar]

I noticed there is a new security fix for the module. How can I update?

[newfy]

Where did you read that? I can't find anything...;(

[Vidar]

It's the first news topic at the http://www.websitebakers.com/

There's just no instructions for upgrade. Should I reinstall the module or just replace the changed files?

[erpe]

Usually updates are installed by loading the zip-file via backend.
Onlly in special cases deinstallation of modules is needed.

Okay, I'll try that. Thanks !
