Album Module Documentation Needed

Post by ctwebman »

Is anyone aware of step by step documentation of how to install and implement the Album Module? I've managed to install. When I click on an Album thumbnail nothing happens. Too many variations of things I've tried to list. Just need solid simple thorough documentation.

CMS Made Simple version 0.13 and Album Version: 0.7.0

There is a little documentation about applying templates here: http://wiki.cmsmadesimple.org/index.php ... tent/Album (feel free to add more to the page if  you have ideas)

The only other documentation I know of is on your CMSMS install at: /admin/listmodules.php?action=showmodulehelp&module=Album

Do you have a URL of the page so that I can see the problem? Is is just a blank page? Is there anything in your server error log?
Note: I don't have time to take on any more projects. I'm quite busy. I may be too busy to reply to emails or messages. Thanks for your understanding. :)

Hi Elijah, sorry site is currently on our intranet. No server errors in log.

I started over to simplify this thread.

1. Uninstalled and re-installed Module 0.7.0  - Using CMSMS 0.13 "Canary"
2. Left all template refs at default
3. Applied stylesheet to template intended to show the Album
4. Inserted "{cms_module module='album'}" into the body of content template
5. Created a simple 5 image Album - Again left template refs at default. Using sub-folders to house images - uploads/images/xxxx/xxxx/
6. Tested Content page. Album shows up. Click to view Album and nothing happens. Same result as previous installation.

On a default install if you put the tag in the default template you will have to scroll way down the page to see the pictures after you click it.

Try pasting it in the content of the page instead of the template and it should work as expected.


Hope this helps,

Elijah (now a busy college student)
