ImageGallery thumnails? Where they are?

I am trying to use ImageGallery tag on CMSMS 1.0.4. Everything seems to work fine, except fot the thumbnalis. They are neither generated, nor shown. I had a look at the code: it will claim to show an image named thumb_, but this file does not exists on the image directory anywhere, so the thumbnail is not shown.

How can I do, pls?

If you FTP images to the uploads/images folder then go to Image Manager and view them it will auto generate thumbnails, you can put them into diff. folders in uploads/images then in I. M. click that folder to open it and it will make thumbs...

Image Manager won't show them to you by default but if you FTP to the folder you will see them, or you can edit a page and try to insert an image and see them in the folder/s...

Thanks Mark, but I went to the image manager. There are my pictures in it, but looking on the sisk I can't see any generated  thumbnails.

You should see this in your FTP client...

I did understand... I have an ssh connection with my server and no thumbs are generated in the upload/images folder with v.1.0.4

I seem to be having a similar problem.

I have installed the album module on this page

http://www.tomclarkstonecarver.co.uk/cms/index.php?page=gallery

when you click to view the gallery, the images are not being resized for the thumbnails.

Any ideas people?

Thanks

Open the album css and find this tag:

.thumb a

replace it with

. thumb a img

Thanks for the quick reply,

sorted it.

Do you know if there is a way to bypass the 'gallery thumbnail' and jump directly to the actual image thumbnails page?

Oh, yes!
Just look into your Galler editor and note the Gallery id. Let's say it is 1. Then in the smarty code, call:

{cms_module module='album' albums=1}

But this is in the module help page!
