yes I got this new update (new fancybox template not working well) and I'm trying to use
but this variable  create long adress and I need just the name of dir for link name.

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...

Looking forward to it!

new fancybox template not working well

Strange.. I tested it on Firefox, IE7 and IE8. What's wrong with it?

-nevermind, after upgrade i had a little problem, but it was my own error

It's still a fantastic module, Jos!

One little remark: it still says 'maximum of 8MB' on the upload link text.
The latest gallery I uploaded, using your upload function was over 33MB. All 228 images uploaded perfectly!
You can remove that text, since there is no 8MB limit 

[Jos]

I think (in your case) it's 8MB per image  8) , the limit depends on the server settings though.

I'm using AE-Gallery 1.2.4-1 template and Gallery 1.4.2. (When I tried to upgrade to 1.4.3 I got a checksum error.)

I'm having a problem with thumbnails displaying vertically instead of horizontally in some versions of IE, specifically 6 and 7. It looks fine in my version of IE8, but someone else is telling me it's now doing this with her "new" version of IE (she seems unable to tell me which version she's using) since she completed a Windows update, where previously it was displaying correctly. I'm waiting for more info from her, but I confirmed the issue in IE 6 & 7 by using adobe's browser lab. Is anyone else having this issue?

[Jos]

I myself don't care about IE6 anymore
With IE7 I don't see any problem, no other then that the slideshow start/stop buttons don't align to the right.

I don't know why ModuleManager says the xml has a checksum error. If you download the xml and install it through "Extensions -> Module"s" it works perfectly

[echobrin]

I'll try the manual install, thanks.

I agree with you about IE6.

Would you mind checking this page in IE 7? Maybe it's something with my CSS causing the thumbs to be out of whack....

Another question: the single image has no style (as gallery images have, with grey border and hovering effect). How can I link single image to the same the gallery linked to.

You can call single image {Gallery img=123}
In gallery go to templates tab and at the bottom of page you can change template of single images.

[Marijus]

I have no this possibility... (see attached picture)

Go to Gallery
there are 4 tabs > Galleries | Field Definitions | Templates | Options
click tab Templates and there you will find Template for module-calls to a single image

[Jos]

A link to a page can say more then 1000 words.... now I understand what you try to do 

To disable the link to the other images in Fancybox, you have to make the value of the rel tag unique like this:

file}" title="{$image->title}" rel="image_{$image->fileid}">thumb}" alt="{$image->title}" />

To show the filename if there is no title you can use {$image->titlename} in stead of {$image->title}

[Jos]

Yes I guess you only have to tweak a gallerytemplate css to accomplish that

Hello Jos,

First of all my compliments for this great module. Super!

Yesterday I installed Gallery without any problems. Today I entered a number in the 'Maximum number of items per page' field. Page buttons showed up, as expected.
But now for some reason Gallery keeps the number I entered (which was 8 ), the page buttons don't go away when I clear the field and entering a different number doen't affect the appearance of the Gallery anymore. It keeps on showing eight thumbnails on the first page and another two on the next page.
Clearing the browser (IE7) cache doesn't make any difference.

Any ideas? I must be missing something simple...

Thanks!

Hans
