[deejvince]

Hi,

Is it possible to show the galery in a wysiwyg page, and not a seperate module page?

Thanks,

Hello,

Is it possible to show the galery in a wysiwyg page, and not a seperate module page?

No, but you can have different sections on a page. Like first a WYSIWYG section, then a gallery section, then onother WYSIWG or whatever you want.

Sorry speedking but I just don't have time to test & solve that detached carousel.

Hello ToS,

Not to worry. I am going to use a flash based gallery for the time being and allow updates via an xml document.

Hopefully I can figure out Smooth Gallery soon as it would allow people to update images and descriptions easily!

Thanks,

I tried your suggestions abut I still get no images if I use Feed gallery tru resizer = true

Any other suggestions?

Cheers,
Joakim

Hello,

I really like the Smoothgallery and I am very thankful that you adopted it to WB. But I also have the Problem that when the resizer is activated no pictures are shown, but the Links are all working.

I think I tried almost all suggestions, but what I don't understand, are there any manual corrections that have to be made??

Maybe someone could check my page:
http://www.naeh-bar.de/pages/willkommen/pics.php
PHPINFO: http://www.naeh-bar.de/check.php

What I found is the following:
The Source-Code of http://www.naeh-bar.de/pages/willkommen/pics.php misses the line        

Code:

useThumbGenerator: true,

and I can't call the resizer.php directly.

The resizer would be pretty essential for using Smoothgallery, so hopefully somebody can help.

Thank you very much

Hi,

I am building a site at http://aiken.moodlerooms.com/wb and  would like a Smooth Gallery slide show on the front page. So far, so good, but how do I get the images to display in random order?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Art

P.S. I originally posted this in the wrong forum, I think. Sorry about the cross-posting!

[ToS]

In view.php, find line 124:
sort($arr);
and change it to:
shuffle($arr);

[artlader]

Thank you, ToS! I am off to make the change right now.

Best regards,
Art

Hello

My ISP changed the server of my webspace. Now, I don't get thumbnails any more in the carusel part of smooth gallery.

Do I need a special module on apache in order to resize the thumbnails?
Anybody knows about that?

Thanks for help!

Finaly figured it out myself:

The imageantialias-function in the resizer.php on line 85 was not supported by my php version (PHP Version 5.2.0, GD Version 2.0). So I replaced it by using this:

Code:

if (function_exists("imageantialias")) {
        imageantialias ($dst, true);
    }

Now it works fine again!

Hi There,

I have installed this module, and it seems to be working fine... apart from one small problem.

I can not get the arrows to show. I have set it to 'true' in the controls.. but they don't show up. I am not sure if maybe it is a conflict with the css.. as I think I can see a small dotted underline at the bottom of the full picture, and if I hover over it in the right spot I can click it and make the picture change. (dotted underline is in the link css for my site)

The site I am working on is for a client, and not yet live... I would prefer not to put the link public... but if there is someone who has time to have a look I am happy to share the link privately.

I am not sure where to start looking for the problem.

Any advice would be appreciated

I'm using the 'title' area to control the order of my slide show by numbering A1, A2 , B1, B3 etc, and want to make it less prominent (it's controlled by an h3 tag) and I want the caption area of the filename more prominent.  I found that I was able to control these tags somewhat in the modules/smoothgallery/css/jd.gallery.css file, but I'm stumped at this point. 

http://www.rockybranchfarms.com/wb/pages/retaining-walls.php?searchresult=1&sstring=retaining+walls

If you'll look at this page, my 'p' tag (the caption or description) is being cut short.  It appears I need to increase the size of that greyish box it's sitting in, but I don't have a clue where that's being controlled.  Also, I set my h3 as a float left, but it won't float.  I'm curious what's getting in the way of my being able to format this in a normal way. 

[keress]

I fixed it.  I made the height of the .slideInfoZone 50px.  These are the tags I change:


.jdGallery .slideInfoZone
{
    position: absolute;
    z-index: 10;
    width: 100%;
    margin: 0px;
    left: 0;
    bottom: 0;
    height: 50px;
    background: #333;
    color: #fff;
    text-indent: 0;
    overflow: hidden;
}


.jdGallery .slideInfoZone h3
{
    color: #999999;
    font-size: .6em;
    font-weight: normal;
    float: left;

}


.jdGallery .slideInfoZone p
{
    padding: 0;
    margin: 2px 2px;
    text-align: center;
    font-size: 1em;
    color: #ffffff;
    font-weight: bold;
    padding-bottom: 5px;
       
}

Hi! Thanks for creating the Smooth Gallery module, it's perfect!

My only question is that the arrows on the left and right don't look as smooth and crisp in IE as they do in Firefox, any ideas on what I can do to fix that?\

I've tried changing the arrow images (.gif versions) and uploading them via FTP then reloading the modules from the reload link on the settings page in the WB backend but the new changes don't show up and i kept the filenames the same.

Thanks in advance,
Chrissy

I've tried changing the arrow images (.gif versions) and uploading them via FTP then reloading the modules from the reload link on the settings page in the WB backend but the new changes don't show up and i kept the filenames the same.

Are they named fleche1.png & fleche2.png ?? Btw, IE does not show PNG alpha channel which is the reason for the IE-bad-loox.

[Chrissy]

Yes, there is fleche1.png and fleche2.png but there is also fleche1.gif and fleche2.gif in the IMG folder and I assumed that they are the images that IE is using since it sucks with PNG's but they don't change when i try to fix them up and re-upload them.. I thought I saw in the CSS a code for IE .gif usage but maybe I misunderstood... is there a way that I could do that though?

[ToS]

Smooth gallery has its own forums. That question surpasses my development frame.
[not that I cant't find out what is wrong] GDluck...

[Chrissy]

k, thanks anyways

Hey ToS
do you already work on/with the version 2.0 of SmoothGallery for WB? There are some nice new features in the new version of SmoothGallery.
Would be great!

Not working ATM but when I get down to it, it will be a matter of hours to get it done.

This is a very lovely gallery and worked nicely right out of the box.

I haven't fully explored this module yet - I was wondering if there is a way to add a caption to images and/or attach a comment system to the images?

Tnx.

Captioning of the images is done by naming files using the separator (which can be selected) in the format:
<title> - <description>
There is always a way....but not for free.

[ToS]

Vell  I tested gallerie with two instances and it worked for me.
But you probably don't want two instances of it because such page will consume too much of CPU time(if I remember correctly).

Hello,

I want to have TWO or more SmoothGalleries on ONE page. No matter what I do, I can't get this to work, the pictures simply do not show: The FIRST one that works when it is the only one does not show at all anymore, the second is loading and loading and loading the slideshow and shows nothing.

Any ideas?

Thanks
mercator

Learn html (and a bit of javascript).
Save webpage (with images)
Check if all images are present (that are supposed to be)
Tweak the html source until you get the galleries to show.
Send me a PM with tweaks so that I can fix it in my sourcecode.

Ow and yes, consider it as a "text adventure" (as Thorstein Klose would say).
