    I have installed maxigallery on my site but site is just showing simple photo gallery in white page background and no slimbox effect is showing please help me so that i can get effects on images

    i have added this to my template source code
    <link href="assets/templates/mytemplates/travelportal/styles/style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
    <link href="assets/snippets/maxigallery/slimbox/css/slimbox.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
    <script type="text/javascript" src="assets/snippets/maxigallery/slimbox/js/mootools.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="assets/snippets/maxigallery/slimbox/js/slimbox.js"></script>

    [!MaxiGallery? &display=`embedded` &embedtype=`slimbox` &pics_per_row=`3` &max_thumb_size=`110` &max_pic_size=`0` &thumb_use_dropshadow=`1`!]

      MaxiGallery should add the necessary js / css resources itself to the <head> so you don’t have to do that. You have probably a js collision on the page if slimbox is not working by default, please read this: http://modxcms.com/forums/index.php/topic,36851.0.html

      EDIT: I viewed the gallery you linked above and it’s not running in embedded display mode.. It’s running in normal maxigallery display mode.

        First of all thank doze for give me your reply,

        i have removed all css and javascript as it is auto generated in maxigallery, but still not got success for slimbox installation.

        i have also tried to give normal display as follows

        [!MaxiGallery? &display=`normal` &embedtype=`slimbox` &pics_per_row=`3` &max_thumb_size=`110` &max_pic_size=`0` &thumb_use_dropshadow=`1`!]

        but still not got any success

        and you were saying about embedded why it’s not working when i give &display=embedded , please help me with this slimbox is it i am doing something wrong i have tried for upto 15 hours but not get any success.

        Thanks once again doze for replying.

          The page that you linked to before didn’t have a MaxiGallery call with &display set to embedded.

          Give me a url to a page where you have a call: [!MaxiGallery? &display=`embedded` &embedtype=`slimbox`!]
