A new photo album manager : Gallery

[Marijus]

The paginations buttons are okay, but i only can see the 6 pictures from the current thumbnails.

In gallery templates you can specify max number of photos per page

thx nicmare.
@MikeTroop: I am not the css guru I'd like to be. Therefore I welcome any suggestion to improve the styling of Gallery specific css.
I will not change css that comes with the *box systems, because it will be overwritten when an update for that *box system comes along.

I was just curious if you had looked at it. I realize it's not something you did. I just thought it was strange.

Is it possible to do the following ?

Show a list of all subgalleries on one page and show there album cover (this is easy offcourse).

But then when you click on a subgallery immediately show lightbox or fancybox or some other script with the pictures from that subgallery ?

So basically i need to hide the pictures from each subgallery on that page, so I can use them in the lightbox.

It is possible, but you have to manually put in a {Gallery dir='yoursubgallery'} tag for each subgallery. You might want to take a look at the two latest Frequently Asked Questions here http://wiki.cmsmadesimple.org/index.php ... _Questions

As I think of it, I guess it can also be done with the help of the gallerytree action and put the {Gallery dir='yoursubgallery'} tag in the gallerytree-template...

[Dutch_guy]

Yes, I have seen the FAQ and some posts about this subject. Just can't figure out how it can be made "client-friendly". Don't want the client to put in code.

Would be an excellent template for this great module I think !

This is not the way Gallery is ment to work, and also will take some time to accomplish I guess... so not for me 
Note that it will take a lot of recources from the server too when more subgalleries are added.

I posted yesterday about trying to display a large image plus thumbnails for multiple albums on a single page like this: http://camphavenkennels.com/hunds.html

Although I got the layout pretty close as far as sizing (thanks Jos for the Supersizer suggestion), I was unable to get the correct thumbs to show. (template code that I used is in my previous post.)

Then I discovered the AE-Gallery template. This template already has the basic idea that I'm looking for, with the large image and thumbs below it. However I want to be able to display multiple instances of this without having to call them individually. For example, the kennel currently owns three male dogs. There is a gallery for each individual dog inside the gallery for male dogs. I would like to be able to show all three male dogs on a single page, with a large picture and thumbnails for each dog. Any ideas for accomplishing this would be appreciated. I'm doing this for someone with very little tech ability, so I would like it to be as simple for her as just uploading pics into the correct gallery and they automatically appear in the right place.

Thanks for any suggestions.

echobrin, then you actually have the same question as dutch_guy http://forum.cmsmadesimple.org/index.ph ... #msg234842

[echobrin]

Yeah, I guess you're right. The only difference is that I don't want to hide the thumbs. But the basic idea is the same.

Is there a way to insert Gallery with a set of random pictures of all available galleries? currently you can just take one gallery for that?!
but i want to display an amount of thumbnails (for example 20 pieces) in a random order. and when i refresh the browser, i want to see other random images which are taken from all galleries.

edit: found a solution here

[nicmare]

another question!
i have my gallery with thumbnails displayed as a grid of 4 columns and 4 rows = 16 thumbnails.
what i want to do:
i want to leave some thumbs. i want some gaps in the output between the thumbnails. how can i achieve this? i have a very common template:

Code: Select all

<ul class="images">
{foreach from=$images item=image}
	<li class="img">
	{if $image->isdir}
		<a href="{$image->file}" class="stack"><img src="{$image->thumb|escape:'url'|replace:'%2F':'/'}" alt="" /></a><span class="tooltip">{$image->titlename}</span>
	{else}
   <a class="image" href="{$image->file|escape:'url'|replace:'%2F':'/'}" title="{$image->titlename}" rel="gallery">
<span class="lightbox"> </span>
<img src="{$image->thumb|escape:'url'|replace:'%2F':'/'}" alt="{$image->titlename}" /></a>
	{/if}
	</li>
{/foreach}
</ul>

gap = empty but fixed width and height via css

Just like in feature request #4058 "feu uploads" I would like the possibility to allow
front end users to upload images to the gallery with fields for title and comment.
There are some subtle hints that this might have been covered at Geekmoot 2010.
Is this presentation available anywhere, or would it be possible to put some information on how to do this,
here or in the User Handbook?
I think this would be much appreciated not just by me.

There is no need to make any change in Gallery to make this possible. It will
work with Gallery and Uploads as they are now.

This will be demonstrated at the Geekmoot 2010

and

We will:
    * let frontend users upload their images including title and description with the Uploads Module;
    * let them comment on subgalleries with CGFeedback; and
    * do some advanced image manipulation with SuperSizer.

[Jos]

yeah, Geekmoot 2010 was fun 

This presentation is not available now nor do I have any time to put it on paper. It's also not on my priority list to do so, I'd rather spend some time to create an upload-function in Gallery itself, because with Uploads there are some drawbacks...

I want to add one radom image from all images and a link to this gallery so in the page I add:

Code: Select all

{Gallery dir="/*" action="showrandom" number="1" template='Fancybox_random'}

and in gallery template i add:

Code: Select all

<a href="{$image->gallery_url}">link name</a>

this link is working but how can I change link name to name of gallery?
