Album thumbnails only show vertical

Post by Gregor »

Hello,

something weird happend after upgrading to version 0.9.2 of the Album module. I run version 1.2.3 of cmsms. The thumbnails representing the albums, only show verical in stead of showing next to each other. My browsers FF and Safari both show the same.

Any suggestions to solve it are very welcome!

Thanks for the compliment :)

To solve it was pretty easy (at the end...) I selected another template for displaying the albums (not the photo's inside a album) and after I'd done so, al albums showed up like they do now.

sorry but at least in my FF it doesn't works in your website.
the photos (thumbs) appears at bottom with a big empty space at top, just the size of the menu.

Hmmm, I saw that once before. As far as I know, it has to do with the java script that's used for the menu  ??? Any suggestions to solve it, are more than welcome.

Try getting your page to validate, it has quite a few errors, some of which could cause the problems you are experiencing.

Thanks Russ. I saw around 17 errors. I'll see/try to fix them.

What I'm asking myself, is why it only messes up this page and not the other pages of my site.

Gregor, I'm not sure about the menu as I don't use it, but it would appear to be that element (sidebar) that is filling across the screen and forcing your images below it. Or something is allowing it or making it expand. I can't obviously see what this might be, but if it only happens on the album page then it must be somethign todo with that. Try removing the motion gallery js
()
You don't seem to use it on other pages?

Although not the cause of your problem, the errors on the image links are because of spaces in the image file name, probably best not to have spaces in filenames on the web, I've had problems before. Hope this helps.

Thanks for your comment Russ. By changing the album template, the cmotion gallery.js is no longer in place, however the expanding menu error still occurs. It might if I can found out how to how to analyse this problem. I'll first try the css-plugin I have in FF

Future photo's will be without a space in their file name  :)

Hi Gregor, try out the FF Developer Add-In
http://chrispederick.com/work/web-developer/

I see you removed the Album CSS? That seems to solve the being pushed down? So it is likely that or a combination with the menu CSS? Put the Album CSS back in and lets have a look ;-) Let me know when you have.

Hi Russ,

Work/hobby, difficult combination ;) I'll check your link tonight.

I unchecked the option 'Auto Link Stylesheet' in Photoalbum -> Options
and played around with the album template. I'm not yet able to have all albums to in a matrix as they did before. On the other hand, the menu expanding seems to be solved... Kidding, it looks like I loose style information if I uncheck the option.

Yes, removing that does exactly what you say, it removes the style information.
