IE7 / XP Sp2
1. what is wrong with the "reflect" thing?
2. when you say it won't let you "click" a link to an album, does that mean you can't click the album thumbnail and go straight to the album.
bear in mind this was not tested at all on IE7, so it may very well be a browser related issue.
Okay .. I disabled "reflect" ... now it works ...
cya
found the same problem with IE7 (why am I not suprised)... activating the reflection on the thumbnails prevents from clicking on the thumbs and the album title links... they just don't appear as links to IE7.
Great.
You're having trouble with the EXIF module. Try removing that and then see what you have.
I've noticed a lot more problems with that older module lately. Hopefully we'll have something better soon.
1. Clicking on a thumbnail within an album loads a blank page.
2. Clicking on Slideshow link gives this error:
Zenphoto Error: the requested object was not found. Please go back and try again.
take a look here:

Using the following
zenphoto 1.0.8.2 (βeta)
thinkdreams theme 1.0 downloaded from (http://www.thinkdreams.com/files)
Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.2
Maybe it is the Exif functionality...in my case this was the reason for this behavior.
Open image.php inside the themes/thinkdream folder and comment out the line (23?)
like this "// <?php $exif = getExif(); ?>". ==> Reload your page.
If Exif Info is important for you, I can give you a workaround with Exifer.
you can still see for yourself in the link I provided above.
Sorry my fault...// is a comment inside PHP not for HTML ==> that's the reason that // apear at your side. Just try <?php // $exif = getExif(); ?>.
Let me know if it works...
It might also be the space in your album name. This is related to the htaccess and mod_rewrite functionality more than likely, as some things needed to be changed in the older versions of zenphoto to get it to work, and it may break these "hacks" in the newer 1.8.0.2 version.
My theme is in need of a severe update to work with the newer versions of zenphoto. There are so many hacks in the theme that don't work properly now, that it's getting very difficult to troubleshoot all of them.
I am away at Red Hat Linux training, and will be for the next week and a half. As soon as I get back, I'll see about reworking the theme. I might pull the EXIF functionality out temporarily, as Tristan (the developer) is reworking the EXIF functionality to be included into the core zenphoto code.
So, I apologize for your issues so far, and I'll see what I can do when I get back from my training.
ok stef, here I go. hang on though, it seems my host is down for now.
now for the slideshow..
Zenphoto Error: the requested object was not found. Please go back and try again.
That's funny ...exactly in the same time I tried firebug and your website I realized from one minute to the next, that your site begins working correctly.
Have fun...
oh well.. I'll leave it as it is as of now.
Thanks,
FH
The Image information sits way off to the right of the screen and you have to scroll to see it.
The slide show does not work and when I click on it, I get the following message: Zenphoto error: image does not exist.
The above are just notes for you to take a look at, would be great if you could solve them as this is truly one of the most stunning of all themes.
Thanks Thinkdreams x Mana

Actually, I've already downloaded the Thinkdreams theme from the link you provided (as well as other amazing themes). You can find the my test gallery using that theme here: http://www.magiczonepr.net/zenphoto/ .
From what you've told me here, then the Readme.txt that comes with the theme is outdated, still reflecting the information in this old thread.
Still, I'm guilty of coming to the forum and posting a question without doing some serious digging of my particular problem first. I just panicked and started looking for answers to The Problem(TM)... instead of reading carefully the error page. My bad.
When the "Slideshow" link appear on the gallery, it is pointing to a non-existing folder: http://www.magiczonepr.net/zenphoto/mastercollector/slideshow. "mastercollector/slideshow" does NOT exist, and there are no instructions (that I could find) telling me to create such folders etc. No wonder I'm getting this message: "Zenphoto Error: the requested object was not found. Please go back and try again."
However, I did find a script called "slideshow.js" on the /js subdir of the Thinkdreams, which is, obviously, what the link is supposed to use. After a little Googling I found out that the slideshow is the one at Scott Upton's page here: http://www.couloir.org/js_slideshow/ .
All I have to do now is figure out how to integrate Upton's slideshow properly with the gallery. Maybe easier said than done (I won't know until I try), but its either that or comment out the "View: Normal - Slideshow" links in the .PHP file...
`
function getSlideshowLink() {
if (getOption('mod_rewrite')) {
return getAlbumLinkURL().'slideshow';
}
else {
return getAlbumLinkURL().'&view=slideshow';
}
}
`
I decided to disable mod_rewrite (which I activated previously for another theme that required it), and that did the trick.
Nevertheless, is there any reason why it didn't work with mod_rewrite active? I would prefer to have nicer-looking URLs, but I can live without that if it saves me the effort of getting the slideshow to work. :-/
1) getExif issue -
This was all due to pathing... which partly has to do with the fact that the current directory was set to the cache directory (controller.php will change the directory if the Use_Captcha option is set and doesn't set it back to previous dir... )
The previous work arounds were to provide a new URL for the getExif() in thinkdreams-functions.php... basically the work around is to use ".." or "./.." or what ever you need to do to get it to work.
For me this was a bigger problem because I run a local instance for tweaking and of course my production instance up on the my host... well problem is the mod url doesn't work the same between two hosts. The solution I found that works for both environments is to update getExif() in the following way:
`
function getExif() {
$info = array();
global $_zp_current_image;
$url = $_zp_current_image->localpath;
$er = new phpExifRW($url);
[...]
}
`
2) refletion.js doesn't work in IE -
If you try to click on an image after reflection has done its magic, the link appears to be dead. I just downloaded latest version of reflection.js and dropped that in the scripts directory.
