    I just got it installed and am testing it out. Finding I obviously don't know enough about it or where to look for the info I am lacking. I added the snippet to a page and when I call it using the Jquery-cycle it just shows several images overlay-ed on themselves.

    Do I have to add a Jquey script call or something? Do I have to add Jquery into one of my folders? Instructions are kinda limited.

    Thanks for any and all help, will continue trying to find the answer.

      Hey, firstly, Modx & EvoGallery are a joy to use and my clients love the simplicity of editing via the front-end - So thank you!

      However... I'm a bit stuck (2 days stuck, and this forum/many others searched).

      I have a dev site at http://qubedesign.com/2012/at-bristol.php and EvoGallery is up and running (love the uploadify/management area), but...

      1. I can't get the pagination to output links (image numbers or Previous/Next (< & > in this example), or to display the fact that there should be four images in the [+pages+] - it rotates 4 images but just says '1' for each.

      2. How do I get the [+keywords+] to output links like Ditto tags so pages can be grouped/searched?

      My page template runs as follows:

      Chunk - {{EGgallery}}

      [!EvoGallery? &docId=`[*id*]` &display=`images` &type=`jquery-cycle` &tpl=`EGtpl` &itemTpl=`EGitemTpl` &sortBy=`sortorder`  &paginate=`1` &paginateAlwaysShowLinks=`1` &paginatePreviousText=`<` &paginateNextText=`>` &tplPaginatePrevious=`tplPaginatePrevious` &tplPaginateNext=`tplPaginateNext` !]


      To Chunk - {{EGtpl}}

      <script type="text/javascript">
      jQuery.noConflict();
      jQuery(document).ready(function(){
          jQuery('#myGallery').cycle({
              timeout: 5000
          });
      });
      </script>
      <div id="myGallery">
      [+items+]
      </div>


      To Chunk - {{EGitemTpl}}
      <div class="imageElement">
      
      <div id="galleryPortfolioImages">
      <img src="[+images_dir+][+filename+]" alt="[+title+]" /> 
      [+previous+][+pages+][+next+]
      </div><!-- end galleryPortfolioImages -->
      
      <div id="galleryTextColumn"><h1>[+title+]</h1>
      <p>[+description+]</p>
      <p>[+keywords+]</p>
      </div><!-- end galleryTextColumn -->
      
      <div id="galleryLatestColumn">
      <p>[+pages+]</p>
      </div><!-- end galleryLatestColumn -->
      
      </div><!-- end imageElement -->


      I hope that is enough info, I've been going round in circles for days so a fresh/more skillful perspective would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance. smiley [ed. note: joemordle last edited this post 14 years, 6 months ago.]

        after update i noticed the gallery maps are splitted into original and thumbs.

        When i upload images i cant see the thumbs backend. Also the old images thumbs are not visible anymore.

        Do i need to change some path somewhere or didnt updated correct?

          Hi all,

          Im trying to create multiple galleries on a single page using prettyphoto, i can get the galleries to aggreate on to 1 page using Ditto, but as soon as i add the rel element to pretty photo evogallery brings all of the images back on the page as its sharing the template rather than defining it per id.

          any ideas?

          edit:
          i think its to do with the doc id becuase of the following:

          [[EvoGallery? &display=`images` &docId=`186` &type=`simple-list` &tpl=`gallery-ul` &itemTpl=`gallery-li` &sortBy=`sortorder`]]


          Displays the correct images

          but due to the

          <a href="[+images_dir+][+filename+]" rel="prettyPhoto[gallery]" title="[+description+]"><img src="[+filename:phpthumb=`h=120&w=120&zc=C&q=80#[+images_dir+]`+]" width="120" height="120" alt="[+title+]" /></a>


          it displays all of the images in 1 gallery defined by [gallery] in the pp rel

          if i change it to:

          [[EvoGallery? &display=`images` &docId=`[*Gal_id*]` &type=`simple-list` &tpl=`gallery-ul` &itemTpl=`gallery-li` &sortBy=`sortorder`]]


          It gets ALL of the images from evogallery as its not taking the ID number defined in Gal_id [ed. note: Tyreal2012 last edited this post 14 years, 5 months ago.]

            I'm getting an unusual error with EvoGallery.

            I'm trying to use the ManagerManager widget for evogallery, but when I add it to my rules and go to a page that matches my template constraint, it throws this error:

            TypeError Cannot call method 'hasChildNodes'

            I'm assuming this is a jQuery/Javascript conflict? Does anyone have a fix or experienced the same problem?

                Hi there, I have evogallery running fine locally, but cant get it to upload images on the webserver. I see the progress bar going up but then just get a red HTTP error. I think it might be to do with the fact I'm unable to set 777 permissions - I can only go to 755. Has anyone else had similar issues or any ideas about how to get this running with 755?

                Thank you smiley

                  For work Evogallery webserver must have permissions to write assets/galleries
                  On diffirent hosting this can be done diffirent ways, on some hosting required to set 0777 permissions, on some hosting may be work with 0755 permissions. This depends on owner of files/folders. Check write access (for example upload image through Elements->Files in modx to assets/galleries folder). If you don't have access, ask your hoster how setup write permissions.

                    Thanks evd, yes I can upload through Elements->Files to the gallery folder It just wont do it through Evogallery. Are there any debugging options that can be turned on?

                      Try in .htaccess
                      <IfModule mod_security.c>
                      SecFilterEngine Off
                      </IfModule>
                      


                      If this don't help, look apache error logs
