    New Beta - Go Get It!

    This release adds slimbox and slideshow to the &embedtype parameter and fixes to problems that were reported from Beta 1. For full changelog, see maxigallery.txt.

    New parameters are:

    &slideshow_mode
    &slideshow_width
    &slideshow_height

    EDIT: and these in Rev 49:

    &slideshow_slidedelay
    &slideshow_blendduration
    &slideshow_showinfo
    &slideshow_infodelay

    You can now also run multiple calls on one document, so that you could for example have 10 slideshows from 10 different galleries on a one document.

    Please report any new problems here that you find. Also, look at the Known Issues in the repository page.

      Whaou what a fast developpement. smiley


      In MaxiGallerySolo, I think it would be better to display images even if galsID are empty, as it search in the table, it can display $count latest (or random) from all galleries.
      In beta2 of MaxiGallery, the pagination is still displayed even all images are displayed:
      « previous | | 1 | next » .


      ps tell me if I bored you with my questions/remarks.

          Yes, I’ll do this when I integrate it to MaxiGallery. The solo snippet is not originally developed by me, I have just done some changes to it..

          Yes, that was intentional that it displays page navigator even if there’s just one page and user can’t go anywhere smiley I changed the default templates to hide the navigator now if there’s only one page. There was also some mixups in the pagenumber tpl as you can probably see that the | dividers comes wrong.. Fixes are in the SVN so if you have a client, go grab a new version.

          Not at all! I love getting user input from this and if you guys wouldn’t post, I wouldn’t keep on developing it.. So just the contrary, keep on posting!

          Hmh, are you sure everything got uploaded correctly? There shouldn’t be any major changes that would break compatibility with 0.9.2.2.. I have tested only in 0.9.5 my self though. I did update the dbapi calls to a newer syntax, but it should work in 0.9.2.2 too.. I’ll test this on one of my older installs and see what happens.

          I also did some modifications to the slideshow script and have put the new slideshow parameters to the SVN version. I’ll probably pack it up still later today as beta 2 rev 1 or something after I’ve gotten some things done.. laugh

              It worked fine in my 0.9.2.1 install with a bit of tweaking wink Did you update the snippet code in MODx manager? You have to do that.. But there is a bug in the maxigallery.txt. I have forgot to comment one line in it. So add // to line 165 or just remove the commented block ( eg. add everything under ////// Setting(s) ).

                My line 165 is commented! But I have commented line 49 and now seems to work well....
                Thanks!

                EDIT: I can’t understand if it is possible to upload a zip file with all the photos inside

                  NOTE:

                  I have updated the version in the resource repository to Rev 49 (just edited the Beta 2 page). This has parameters to control the slideshow script and the slimbox script is now fully translateable, just like ligthboxv2. I have also fixed bugs that were reported in this short time. So update your installations to this new version, if you want.

                  I haven’t had a change to test it my self, because it needs ZZIPlib support from php, but it’s supposed to work. I will look for a better ways to handle zip files at some stage..

                    Perhaps a folder upload would be welcome, and permit to upload lot of images for those that haven’t ZZIPlib support.
                    Is there possible to make slideshow in the gallery browse view (with thumbnails) ?

                      I believe Scotty uses the PclZip library from http://www.phpconcept.net/ for SkinGraft. It seems to work fine.

                      Ah, further reading indicates that PHP has to have zlib installed before it can work.

                      You should see this in phpinfo (Reports -> System Info)
