Extras->MIGX

Thanks - I have nothing in here though. The Migx is currently set up directly in a TV - so no other configuration. Sorry - no idea about this, and I find the docs all refer to old versions where the menus they refer to don't exist any more.

Could you give at least one row of the CSV so that I see what data you are working with?
TinyJSON Gallery might be useful

The CSV can be formatted any way that works really - but I'm thinking something like this:

image-title,image-path,image-description,image-category
Example 1,assets/images/gallery/A/example1.jpg,This is Image 1,Category A
Example 2,assets/images/gallery/B/example2.jpg,This is Image 2,Category B

etc etc

I did a search for the TinyJSON Gallery extra but couldn't find it, or anything on Google?

I feel like the best way is to use Migx, but I don't know how to pull the csv into Migx - I know others have tried to explain, but I've got no real experience of Migx, so don't understand how to do it.

Any help will be much appreciated!

MIGX can do anything like this, but if you are still stuck...

TinyJSONGallery is new and comes as a snippet in TinymceWrapper http://modx.com/extras/package/tinymcewrapper
Install it, go to TinymceWrapper plugin properties, enableImageGallery

Then open this demo chunk, NatureAlbum_myGallery, that's all for setup.

Convert your CSV to JSON and add/paste the JSON in the chunk, then hit options --> build from Server or Chunk
A chunk becomes your gallery

Thanks so much for this - I will go and try it right away!

Thanks again - every day is a school day!

Getting an error:
Could not download and create transport package with signature: tinymcewrapper-2.2.1-beta2

I'll try and install it manually, but thought I'd mention it in case there's a problem

What version of MODX Revo are you using?

What version of MODX Revo are you using?

Version: 2.4.2

I've installed it manually - but I cannot find the TinymceWrapper plugin properties to enableImageGallery - where are the settings? I've searched through the system settings

Nothing is in System Settings.

In your resource/element tree, scroll down to plugins, find the folder TinymceWrapper, then TinymceWrapper Plugin
Open the plugin, 3rd tab is properties --click Default Properties Locked, scroll down, find enableImageGallery.


Then open the chunk I mentioned earlier, you'll see this in the textarea

In the options button where the Save button used to be, top right of the browser, find Build...
