    This is an auto-generated topic for <a href="http://modxcms.com/extras/package/642">Gallery 0.1-beta1</a> by splittingred.

    Brief Description:
    Gallery is a dynamic Gallery Extra for MODx Revolution. It allows you to quickly and easily put up galleries of images, sort them, tag them, and display them in a myriad of ways in the front-end of your site.



    - Fixed bug where mgr ui would not work if FURLs was off

    - You can now delete the "Gallery Connector" resource

    - Added parent support to albums, now can be organized heirarchically

    - Fixed bug with reordering of album items

    - Fixed bug where it was installing to wrong table prefix. If you want to migrate from prior Galleries, you will need to copy the gallery_ tables data to the new prefix_gallery_ tables.



    See the official documentation here: <a href="http://svn.modxcms.com/docs/display/ADDON/Gallery">http://svn.modxcms.com/docs/display/ADDON/Gallery</a>

      Is it normal than the parameter "&plugin=`galleriffic`" is inoperate ?
      I have loaded the jquery and jquery.galleriffic.js libraries.

      Should I made something else to activate the effect ?

      In fact, the question is : is galleriffic an Ajax effect to view photos ? Can we see a demo somewhere ?

        Other question ^^

        In the official page of the Gallery Extra, you said :
        Gallery is a dynamic Gallery Extra for MODx Revolution. It allows you to quickly and easily put up galleries of images, sort them, tag them, and display them in a myriad of ways in the front-end of your site.

        Are theses myriad of ways documented somewhere laugh ?

          My code works fine like this:
          [[!Gallery?
             &album=`Name of my album`
             &plugin=`galleriffic`
          ]]
          


          If you use the galleriffic plugin, you’ll need to include jQuery 1.3.2 in your template somewhere.

          There is some documentation here:

          http://svn.modxcms.com/docs/display/ADDON/Gallery

          You can display by tag, by album, or a combination. Currently only the Galleriffic plugin is available as a pre-built plugin, however, you can always change the properties of the Gallery Snippet itself, such as the &thumbTpl chunk to output differently to use with your own gallery plugins.

            Is it possible to use integrated file-manager to select already uploaded files from site’s /assets/images folder?

              I tried installing in RC-1 but the lexicon doesn’t seem to have made it.

              Do I need to install jQuery first?

                Did you install 0.1-beta2, which says is only supported for Revo RC-2?

                  @BobRay, I’m using 0.1-beta2 on Revolution 2.0.0-rc-1 rev6614 and I’ve tested out fancyBox and works a treat. Although I’m not using the &plugin but simply loading the jQuery and javascript in the <head> and class/id calls in the chunk.

                  @splittingred,

                  is there anyway is enable or disable images that are included in the call, or display just a single image. I see there’s an &showInactive but I’ve got a lot of field/buttons in Chrome 6.0.408.1 and FF v3.6.3 not showing up (see attached)?

                  How do I get the linked image to use a template/page. I’ve not having much success with &containerTPL &toPlaceholder, if that’s how I understand it. When I click the link image that where it takes me;

                  h t tp://localhost/modxcms-2.0/assets/components/phpthumb/phpThumb.php?w=&h=&zc=0&src=h t tp://localhost/modxcms-2.0/assets/components/gallery/files/2010/05/015-chamfer-box-start.jpg

                  rather then just displaying it within my current layout. Do you have any more example if that makes sense?

                    doh! I think I’ve figured out my second problem. I basically created another chunk with only <img class="" src="[[+image]]" alt="[[+name]]" title="[[+name]]" /> and used that on the &thumbTpl controlling the the images with &imageHeight/Width. So not sure what the point of &containerTpl is now..

                    My first problem, I’m still not sure how the &showInactive works. I would have thought that each image would have a check box when you edit the properties, but I can’t see those as per my attached screen shots if there is one. So I’m guessing there still no way of picking a single image to display from a gallery without having to replicate an album for an image.

                    Finally how can I create a dynamic chunk that I can use it for multiple gallery pages. For example in EvoGallery it will load the associated images linked via the id. So visiting id 9 will show images in the directory of id 9 all with just an Evo snippet. My initial thought is to put the albums names in to a TV drop down box and use the tv on the &album=``. Which is all well and good if I knew how I would grab the albums names.. huh Unless there’s a simpler way.


                    Note, I’m getting the occasional issue where I select Components -> gallery => and the page either doesn’t load, doesn’t list my albums or if I perform an action like save/create the page goes blank in the browser. Currently happening on Windows 7 x64, XAMPP 1.7.3, using 0.1-beta2 on Revolution 2.0.0-rc-1 rev6614 via Chrome 6.0.408.1 and FF v3.6.3. Not a major problem just takes a couple of refreshes.

                      @knightknight, really really should stop talking to yourself...

                      Anyway I got the albums to output to a drop down menu TV using the @SELECT name FROM `modx_gallery_albums`. So selecting the appropriate album to the page works for me. Easier then I thought. grin

                      However the &showInactive still perturbs me as I think setting this option per image would be my single image output option. But I can’t see it...

                      One other thing, can the output of phpThumbs be cleaned up (readable) rather then % for spaces?
