  • Tool tips for the buttons is something I've looked into, unfortunately Flash AS3 doesn't support them natively so it's a case of writing code to implement them, so that'll take a while. Definitely on the to-do list though.

    The full-screen button is something I'd like to improve; I'm looking at loading the control graphics dynamically rather than building them into the flash file so all of that could be changed. Watch this space.

    Music while playing - looking around it sounds like it should be simple to do from the examples of playing MP3s in Flash that I've seen, I'll have to have a play and see what can be done. Don't hold your breath though as it'll take quite a bit to get it sorted I imagine even if it is relatively straightforward!
  • Hi,
    Is is possible to add thumbnails with scroller under/above image on slideshow page?
    Thank you.

  • I have just upgraded to version 1.2.7 of zenphoto, since then I can't get this great plug-in to work! Any ideas??
  • I upgraded and mine functioned properly, but then I couldn't remember if I had modified it or not.

    After downloading the source (1.1.4) I realize I did not. 1.2.7 now uses the user plugin folder which is located in the root of your gallery dir under "/plugins".

    You'll have to move the slideshow files to the "/plugins" dir and they should function properly at that point.
  • Yes I have copy the stuff to the new plugins dir. It's still now working, it just does this http://www.gordon-valentine.com/photos2/blackpool/2000/page/slideshow_flash

    A quick look at Safari's activity window:
    `/photos2/zp-core/plugins/slideshow_flash/js/swfobject.js - not found`.
    Of course as that directory does not exist anymore, it's `/plugins` now for third party plugins.
  • I have got it working now, I had to edit the slideshow_flash.php file. And change the following lines 202, 203 and 211.
  • you changed
    `<?php echo WEBPATH . '/' . ZENFOLDER ?>/plugins/slideshow_flash/`
    to
    `<?php echo USER_PLUGIN_FOLDER ?>/slideshow_flash/`

    I hope? I'm realizing that I had the flash in the zp-core folder as well so that's why mine continued functioning. have edited those lines myself, just didn't made it back here to post it, sorry.
  • Yes that's more of less the edit I had to do. It's working again now, so that's the main thing. So thanks very much for your help!!
  • For those Simplescript errors I just replaced my /zp-core/template-functions.php with the one included in version 1.2.7 and it all worked.

    You should never replace just one core file from one release with that of another. Always update all files as there are dependencies that are not tested separatly.
  • Hi guys,

    I've got some time off work over Christmas so I'll fix up the code to work with the latest version of zenphoto and make a new release - sounds like a reasonably simple fix needed.

    I'll aim to get it done around next weekend if I don't get a chance beforehand, will post back once there's a new version for y'all to try out!

    Thanks,
    Mark
  • I had a few minutes to attempt the changes - see this new thread for a version that should work just fine now.

    Please test and post in the new thread if you have any problems!
