  • Looks neat, though I liked the old layout for the index page better.

    So far I can't seem to change any options without crashing, and it still won't load music and animations right.

    I get this error when I try to save options, unsure if it's because of zenphoto, galleriffic, or my server though.
    [code]Zenphoto encountered an error
    MySQL Query ( SELECT `name`, `value`, `id` FROM `zp_options` WHERE `name`='zpgal_contrast' AND `ownerid`= AND `theme`='zpgalleriffic_v1.4' ) failed. MySQL returned the error You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'AND `theme`='zpgalleriffic_v1.4'' at line 1

  • Hi Gjr, I cant'find my latest post and your reply about how to show the image filename.

    I mean:
    for example, I have this image
    bangkok-024.jpg (filename) and in exif data its title is "bangkok street view".
    On image's page and in exif details, I can see only the title "bangkok street view".
    I wish to show also the filename image
    "bangkok-024.jpg".

    Acrylian wrote me:
    Generally $_zp_current_image->filename gets the file name but I can't answer how to add this to this theme.

    Please could you help?

    The thumbnail list is generated by the next_image loop, within that you have to add that code. Of course unfamiliar with this theme it might not use that loop because of the JS stuff.
  • re Horizontal scrollbar...

    "@formulae: fixed, file updated in download. To fix yourself, style.css, line 26, add padding:0!important, like:
    .wrapper#thumbstrip .centered{width:1200px;overflow:hidden;padding:0!important;}"

    I downloaded the style.css file and copied across.
    It works Ok as you say in firefox but the scrollbar still appears in chrome, safari and IE.
    Have I done something wrong?

    @formulae: Ok try again, copy the style.css file over. (you might want to replace all files as I fixed some other minor bugs). It actually had to do with the comments block....
  • thanks gjr, works perfectly.

    the other thing i mentioned was the image_effects function. It is one of the zenphoto 1.4 version plugins.
    I couldn't seem to get it to work with zpgalleriffic. I haven't tried it in any other theme.
    It is not essential, just wondered whether you had tested it with your theme.

    The plugin gives a variety of effects/borders to the existing images from what I can read about them.

    BTW: cool new website
  • I'm having a problem with the slideshow on the Album page.

    It's taking approx 8 to 12 seconds for each photograph to be processed and appear. And with the busy box that appears in the centre of the photograph pretty annoying to try and watch and of course far too slow. Once it's been generated (filename_475_thumb.jpg - I believe)it works OK.

    What is strange is that if I click the photograph, what looks like the same sized image appears immediately and using the arrows keys it changes instantly. (Tried on a untouched album)

    I'm getting a similiar situation in the Detail View as well.

    Is there any way to get all the images needed for the theme to be pre-cached. The pre-cache module only does "Image size" and "thumbnails".

    Other than this the theme is working well and looks incredibly "sharp".
  • acrylian Administrator, Developer
    Custom sizes generated as request on a theme can only be "pre-generated" one way. Visit and request all images yourself once. Also note that js powered slideshows have to load all images to display before you can view theme. Depending on your server power and image size that might take a while naturally.

    @Nigel_Aves -

    Not sure if you are talking about colorbox or galleriffic. You need to find the right balance of theme options and uploaded image sizes.

    If you are talking about colorbox: There is a setting in the theme options to have colorbox target either the full original image or the default sized one. If you choose the default sized option, you can set the size in the top core theme options, then pre-cache them all using the pre-cache backend options.

    If you are talking about galleriffic: You can try adjusting the theme option - "how many images to pre-load". The reason you may be getting a big delay, but then it is fine is because you have too many images pre-loading (try reducing that number).

    You also may want to look at the size of the images you are uploading. Large images take longer for the server to process and cache.

    Of course, as acrylian says, if you visit all your albums once and cycle through the images, everything will then be pre-cached for your visitors.

    Again, you need to find an acceptable balance between these user controlled options.
  • Thanks very much for the advice. As it turns out it looks like it is a problem with my home network (I run my own web server etc from home - I have no clue as to why this should be the case, never seen anything like this before) because when I tested this from outside (at work) everything was working correctly and absolutely no real time delays when getting into slideshow or Image Detail.

    Love the theme, takes a bit of getting used too going from version 1 directly to 4.

    Once again, many thanks.
  • Hi gjr et al,
    Me again...

    One of my albums is a list of flowplayer videos (32 of them).
    I notice that zpGalleriffic handles listing videos differently when I click on the home page to get to the video album.
    Instead of the default image and the thumbnails of others in a list at the bottom as in the photograph albums, all the videos are listed as thumbs.

    The image that these thumbs use is a condensed/distorted full version of the main image and not the cropped image that I have set it as in the thumbnail options in the admin.

    When I click on one of these thumbnails, it takes me to that video with the list of other videos above it in the correct cropped view.

    My first question is:
    Is it possible to get zpgalleriffic handle a videos album in the same manner as the photograph albums?

    My second question is:
    Can the list of videos thumbs be cropped in the same manner as they are when I go to an individual video to view it?

    Thanks (Hope this all makes sense)

    No, because galleriffic targets a full image. You cannot play a video in the galleriffic fader.

    Can the list of videos thumbs be cropped in the same manner as they are when I go to an individual video to view it?

    Maybe if I can see a link I can help. Also see http://www.zenphoto.org/2009/03/troubleshooting-zenphoto/#19

    That's a pity.
    On the home page, at the top right where the latest images are displayed... clicking an image for a video will take me straight to the flowplayer page with a complete set of all the video thumbnails above it, just like for any of the photo images. so it is consistent in how it deals with photos and videos at this access point.

    I would have liked a format similar to the photos albums when clicking a video album just to keep the whole theme consistent in its structure for the user.

    thanks anyway. I suppose there is no workaround?
  • regarding the video thumbs...

    If you look at the demo site:
    http://www.gjr-web.com/demo/zpgal/Video/
    you will see that the thumbnail images are distorted, ie. full size squashed into a square thumbnail size.

    Whereas at:
    http://www.gjr-web.com/demo/zpgal/Video/JetSki.flv.php
    the thumbs are correctly proportioned using a cropped image.

    Can these cropped thumbnail images be used for the main videos listing or even better be the default image used?

    It seems it may be to do with the selection of cached images chosen.

    thanks
  • Hello!

    I have the same error as aymeric106 with printpassword. I see this:
    Warning: Missing argument 1 for printPasswordForm(), called in...
    If I put <?php printPasswordForm($hint, $show); ?> on password.php, the error disapear but the form
    don't work because it's not complete (I see only password field).

    So, what is the solution? Thank you!
  • Hi! I have the same error as Ilmariel, too.
    please have a look here:
    http://www.lindorblu.it/zenPROVA3/

    besides, I don't understand why there are two login boxes.

    Thank you for you reply!
  • Me again, I think that with passwords there is an other problem. When I login, if I return to index page (gallery link at the top) I had to do login again.

    Any ideas?
    Thank you!
  • this problem occurs only with internet explorer. with firefox all is ok.
  • @lindor: I use Firefox and I have this error. So, it's not concern the browser.
  • with explorer thre are problem also to logout.
    I think that is a problem of refreshing the cache. It seem to me that, if I refresh the page, login and logout works properly.
  • gjr Member
    I think I have fixed this issue.... files updated. If manual fix needed, because of modifications, you need to replace password.php, header.php, and add the login.php new file.

    Colorbox login no longer in this theme as it was causing conflicts with the user login form on the same page as an album password request, and couldn't figure out why. So I needed to add a login page. Sorry I liked the colorbox login, maybe when I have more time I will try to figure it out.
  • @gjr It's work! Thank you so much for this help! :)
  • Hi gjr

    Not sure if you saw my post a while back now.

    Would you be willing to either update the previous version of this theme or include options to enable the current version to look like the previous?

    I was able to modify the previous version easily to look like what I wanted and now the new one looks nothing like it, which prevents me from updating Zenphoto.
  • acrylian Administrator, Developer
    I would really not count on that as he is not even offering the old version for download anymore.
  • I'm not counting on it but have to ask due to the time and money spend trying other applications before finding Zenphoto which along with the previous theme was almost exactly what I wanted.
    From the posts in this thread I'm not the first person to ask.
  • gjr Member
    I will consider it.
  • gjr Member
    Patched for zp 1.4. Limited testing, hope it works for ya! If not, post bugs on the forum. Note that I will only address bugs in the conversion for 1.4, I will not add new features, plugin support (see v1.4 for that)

    Download available at:
    http://www.gjr-web.com

    Cheers!
  • acrylian Administrator, Developer
    Good, I will re-add the link to it. And I will also add the fresh new theme I just discovered..;-)
  • Thank you very much. Made a small donation for some beer money.
  • I see your new app 'zpminimal' has cool icons to link to facebook twitter and digg. Is it possible to have these as an option in zpGalleriffic?
