(flawed) fix for multi-context gallery

Hello,

Just a note to anyone else out there struggling with multi-context installs and trying to use Gallery.
I got it working by adding the following settings to my context where I need Gallery to work (not web context, where it is working fine).

gallery.assets_url ([http://www.webcontext-sitename.com]/assets/components/gallery/)
gallery.files_path ([/home/[webcontext-sitename]/public_html]/assets/components/gallery/files/)
gallery.files_url ([http://www.webcontext-sitename.com]/assets/components/gallery/files/)
gallery.phpthumb_url ([http://www.webcontext-sitename.com]/assets/components/phpthumb/)

I’ll post link to it working on the sites as soon as I’ve got them all fixed.

Caveat: it shows in the status bar that the resource is being fetched from a different domain. I decided that the convenience of getting this working now was worth it.

Hope this helps someone.

Thanks to SplittingRed for the Gallery Snippet: it’s fantastic! It’s probably a real pain to get the context thing working

This took care of my problem... you also have to set context-specific settings for the filemanager_paths too if you want to just use the image browser (via TinyMCE or the like).

Also, because the image technically still resides on the main web context’s domain, you have to go to the main settings and set up phpthumb to allow hotlinking.

No luck in my case.
I set up the 4 paths but nothing appears. Anything else I should look for. Is there a test scenario?

Did you also allow hotlinking in the system preferences (off by default)?

I think I forgot to install IF and my gallery did not appear. I’ll post later if it works

Everything works as expected. I needed it for a gallery here in my revo context set up

I am using revo 2.2.4 and gallery 1.5.2. I had to modify these settings a bit to make it work on my setup. As you can see the files_path and files_url location appears to be different. It may be just my settings were somehow modified or the directory structure for gallery has changed a little. For anyone else needing to do this same thing, here was my solution.

gallery.assets_url ([http://www.webcontext-sitename.com]/assets/components/gallery/ )
gallery.files_path ([/home/[webcontext-sitename]/public_html]/assets/gallery/)
gallery.files_url ([http://www.webcontext-sitename.com]/assets/gallery/ )
gallery.phpthumb_url ([http://www.webcontext-sitename.com]/assets/components/phpthumb/ )

Hello! Where am I going to put this code?

gallery.assets_url ([http://www.webcontext-sitename.com]/assets/components/gallery/ )
gallery.files_path ([/home/[webcontext-sitename]/public_html]/assets/gallery/)
gallery.files_url ([http://www.webcontext-sitename.com]/assets/gallery/ )
gallery.phpthumb_url ([http://www.webcontext-sitename.com]/assets/components/phpthumb/ )

You'll have to create them in the system settings.
