gallery Cliche

I’m using the gallery-tool cliche in modx revolution (2.2.2).

I have 3 questions, the first one is absolutely necessary:

1) I don’t get a next or previous on the fancybox??
2) How can I use another tool to show the pics? For example clearbox or colorbox?
3) Is there a way to get de album-title under (or over) the thumbnail?

The link to the test-website where you can see the problem: http://www.dakwerken-covents.be/fotoalbum.html

I’m not very good in php.

1. check reply #2.
2. u have to do it yourself, u can change the chuck codes and add the js yourself.
that package has fancybox and gallerific, although i haven't got gallerific to work
3. yes, change the itemTpl chunk. Check the link above..


<ul class="item">
   <li class="album-icon">
      <a rel="fancypop" title="[[+name]]" href="[[+image]]">
         <img width="[[+width]]" height="[[+height]]" title="[[+name]]" alt="[[+description]]" class="attachment-thumbnail" src="[[+thumbnail]]"/>
      </a>
     <h2 class="mytitle"><a rel="fancypop" title="[[+name]]" href="[[+image]]">[[+name]]</a></h2>
   </li>
</ul>

Thx. But I don't get it work like I want. I want to show my 6 albums and when I click on an album then open a fancybox (or other) where I can see the pics. If I use clichealbum? then I have to add an id for the specific album, but I want to show all the albums (so I have to use cliche?). I really love the backend of this plugin so I really want to use it on the website. I don't understand why the next/prev isn't something standard in the plugin.

hmm, i don't know about multiple albums on 1 page if you are trying to accomplish that.

i should be possible. you must have all images hidden and different rel="xxx" calls.

the tricky will probably be show 1 image (and make it pop and show the others).

isn't it possible to show 1 albumpic (with getresources) and after click go to the thumb page and let it pop there?

I have the overview-page and after click you go to the album, but te main problem is that it doesn't use fancybox to show the pics.

[[!Cliche? &view=`albums` &browse=`2` &thumbWidth=`160` &thumbHeight=`160`]]

You can see te result here: http://www.dakwerken-covents.be/fotoalbum.html

I just don't get it work. With the plugin Gallery I can make it work, but I find the backend of Cliche much better and the speed is also a lot better than Gallery.

I hope that the author makes the documentation more extended.

Well i used &view=items and for the overview getresourses and dunno about &view=albums.

U can try using these or some of these in your call.
Or at least the js and itemtpl (for the next buttons).

&display=`galleriffic` 
&config=`config` 
&css=`cliche-stylesheet` 
&js=`cliche-js` 
&itemTpl=`itemTpl`

Hello,
I use gallery to display my albums but i think clichet is more user firendly. In gallery there is "galleryalbumlist" tv so i can assign a gallery to a specific ressource, it is very usefull to me.

[[*Galleryalbum]]` &toPlaceholder=`Gallery` &useCss=`0` &containerTpl=`AlbumContainer` &thumbTpl=`ItemThumb` &imageWidth=`1400` &imageHeight=`800` ]]

Is there a way to do the same with clichet ? I'm not a good developper, i need to be guided to do that.

I might have missed something.

It would be nice if someone could help, thank you.

And I just have a quick question. How do I change the size of the full size image? Right now it outputs it in original size when I click the thumb. I was looking for a max width of 800 or something. I can only find parameters for the thumbnail size.

Any ideas?

Maybe you can use something like phpthumb ?

Yes, I thought so too. So what I did was adding phpThumbOf to the itemTpl template. Like this:

<dl class="item">
    <dt class="album-icon">
        <a class="zoom" title="[[+name]]" href="[[+image:phpthumbof=`w=800`]]">
            <img width="[[+width]]" height="[[+height]]" title="[[+name]]" alt="[[+description]]" class="attachment-thumbnail" src="[[+thumbnail]]"/>
        </a>
    </dt>
</dl>

The problem is that fancybox doesn't recognize the new size and therefore don't adjust the box size.. so I end up with a big white box with a resized image in it.
