A new photo album manager : Gallery

[Jos]

@doolak & Kamistral:
I'm sorry that's just the way it is at the moment. I myself don't use the number parameter, so I never encountered this 'problem'. I don't know if it is possible to make it without creating other problems.. have to look into it...

@SchPeter: You can move the images per subalbum to a Gallery subdirectory, but there is no way to import titles and descriptions from Album to Gallery

[Jos]

No, I guess the Album module is more suitable for that.

WTF?

You can't use the same images in more than one Gallery?...

[FirstGateDreamer]

Is there a way to re use images in different galleries?

I have a client that wants to use the same image but have it appear in different galleries based on keywords i.e. landscape, sunrise

Just re-upload the photo in each sub-gallery you want it to appear in.
You won't be re-using the image but who cares. Memory is cheap. You'll just have to remember that the image is in two places if you have to update/delete.

Is it possible to create a template that shows a gallery, and all the images in it's sub-galleries?

I'm wanting to create a gallery (call it main) with 3 subgalleries (call these sub).

The idea is to call the 'main' gallery which displays 3 UL's, where each UL contains all of the images from each 'sub'.

In the end I want to wrap it up to look like this

I guess it should be possible if you just put a {Gallery dir='..'} call within a new Gallery template

something like this:

Code: Select all

{foreach from=$images item=image}
	{if $image->isdir}
		{Gallery dir=$image->file}
	{/if}
{/foreach}

[micahgodbolt]

Oh nice. Then assign those galleries a different template. I'll test and see if that works properly.

[micahgodbolt]

I've tried several things. Unfortunately the $image->file points to a file called 1-5-27.html inside of that gallery folder.

I've tried a few ideas with capturing {$gallerytitle}/{$image->filename} and putting that in.

If I take the output from {$gallerytitle}/{$image->filename} and type it in to the dir="" manually, it works great. But when I do dir="$captureassign" the output always ends up as dir="Gallery/title/filename"

I don't understand why that extra "Gallery" is showing up. Even if I capture the entire url {root_url}/uploads/images/Gallery/{$gallerytitle}/{$image->filename}

the result is still Gallery/{root_url}...

Any idea how I can get the directory to come out properly without that extra Gallery/

how can i access the gallery filedate when i am IN a gallery. here i can just find the filedates of each image. but i want to display:
Galleryname, Filedate
image1
image2
image3
and so on

but i cant find a way to access the filedate of the overall gallery

[Jos]

I'm affraid there is currently no way to do that
But I can add it for you in a next release

[nicmare]

wow, just for me??
would you also add a datepicker "just for me"?
i heard this plugin would be boxed with cmsms 1.10 ?!

[Jos]

Yes, I guess 1.10 is a good moment to bring that in also (if a datepicker is indeed integrated in the module API) Gallery will require 1.10 as minimum CMSms version as of then.

Hi,

I am not too sure if this is the right place to post this problem, but I am using the Gallery module with the Colorbox template, however, only in IE, I have a showtime module as well, and the problem is that itoverlaps the images that are in the album when clicked.

here is an example.... http://www.tillemont.com/eng/sports-theme-cakes.html click on any image with you are scolled completly up

thank you

[uniqu3]

Thats problem with flash, you need params.wmode = 'transparent' which i see in sourcecode is commented out, dont know if this can be edited in some of showtime templates or do you have to ask module developer for a fix.
